Yesterday was crazy. Baseball at the sandlot is exactly what i need right now. I washed my face put on some chapstick and mascara and changed into some flared jeans and a brown fitted long sleeve shirt with my converse and an Ariat hat i stole from Toño


After we finished breakfast we left to the sandlot.

"Is that my hat?" Toño asked

"No"

"But it looks like the one i lost-"

"Its mine i just bought it"

"Are you sure"

"I just got it Toño"

"Oh" he said confused

( gaslight gatekeep girlboss🤭🤞)

We got to the sandlot and went to see the new dugout.

"Oo this shits fancy" i say "it even has a mini fridge"

"I know, we gotta start visiting Mr. Mertle more often" Aisha says

We get our things and start playing

"Nena you bat first" Bertram says handing me the bat"

"Ok" i say and walk next to Ham

I get into position

"Ready for my heater? Its been a while since you've played here"

"Bring it Kennedy" i say

He pitches his heater and i swing as hard as i can, taking Kennys advice of pretending it was Olivia. It went flying over the fence to what looked like the far side of Mr. Mertles back yard.

"WOO" we all cheer as i run the bases, high-fiving Ham as i get to home. This is what i was missing. Softball was fun but baseball is just different, and baseball at the sandlot with my friends was even better. Until it wasn't. Benny and la bruja del 71 herself walked into the sandlot hand in hand. (If you understand the reference ily we can be besties)

"To think we were actually having a good fun game" squints said loud enough for them to hear as he rolled his eyes.

"Calm down, i just wanna play" benny said rolling his eyes

"Who made you think we were going to let you play?" Bertram said putting his hands on my shoulder like a protective older brother.

"Yeah yeah youve been a jerk" yeah yeah said

"We dont want you here" Timmy says crossing his arms

"Dont want you here" Tommy says also crossing his arms.

"You guys dont own this place" la bruja scoffed

"Your right, fine benny you can play" Aisha said and we all nodded knowing what she was doing and started walking to the dugout

"Where you going?" Benny asked confused

"We said you can play here, but not with us. Good luck playing with someone who cant even throw" Aisha said

Benny and Olivia were about to start arguing with us until we hear bikes pull up. Great just what we needed.

We all groaned and walked over to where the guys were, with their leader Jordan Phillips.

"What do you want Phillips" i say crossing my arms already over this.

I was standing in front of the group when i feel someone stand next to me.

Benny, with Olivia next to him

"Damn someones a bitch today" Phillips snickers

"Dont call her that" Benny says

I scoff and turned to him "no no no tu te callas. Dont try to defend me now as if YOU didnt call me a bitch yesterday too, remember? When you chose some girl over us? The girl that calls everyone here names. The girl that thought she could threaten me in my own house. The girl standing next to you." I say

"Damn" i hear coming from Phillips and his team

"Thats pretty shitty Benny" Phillips said looking genuinely surprised and confused

"And thats coming from phillips" one lf his teammates said

"Whatever, were in the middle of a game, so if you *points to benny* could take your little novia and you *points to phillips* could take your little friends and leave" i said and turned around and walked to the dugout. Great summer so far.
