Yeah, I almost got into a fight at school today. Let me tell you what happened.
It was an ordinary day. I thought today was going to be a really good day until 3rd block. BPE (or Personal Fitness as we call it. It's not the same as Gym.) Anyways, girls were upstairs running so the guys were in the classroom doing book work because we ran the day before. After a while, our coach lets us go outside in the Gym with everyone to play. Of course, the only thing we can play is Basketball. So, we're playing Basketball. (I admit, I'm not that great at it, but I'm decent.) And I didn't notice 2 guys were walking across the court because I had my back turned to them. Someone shot the ball, bounced off the rim and I tried to jump and catch it to tip it in (we were playing 21). I accidently ran into and knocked him on the floor. I say "I'm sorry" but then someone called me. He gets up and kicks me in the ass out of anger (but I managed to stop a bit of it with my hand so it didn't really hurt). I didn't say anything and we continued playing.
A few minutes later, same guy, walks up and decides he wants in the game which we had no problems. We were playing, everything goes well until he gets the ball at one point. He drives, and I post-up playing defense so he can't get by. I had my arms spread apart. He drives towards me and TRIPS over my left foot and his face hits my hand. He gets up and slaps me across the face. "What the hell?!" I thought and so he got up in my face and I got up in his face back talking and cursing each other out in the process. Some guys we were playing with broke us up before anything happened and we broke up. One of my friends told me to just drop it so I calmed down and just went back to the game. I overhear him talking about me again behind my back. I was about to run up to him and hit him but again, my friend told me to drop it and I did.
Did I seem like a bad guy in this case? Was I really wrong? I mean, after a few minutes after we calmed down, I was going to be the bigger man and apologize but I went up to him and called his name and he told me to "Shut the fuck up". I just dismissed his comment and played. And right now, I'm still thinking about it because I feel I broke one of the morals I believe in.
