Triple Loss and a Win

We were not supposed to attend the company's bowling tournament last Saturday but my photography class ended early. I didn't aim to grab the best female bowler award nor for our group to become champions. But something did happen.

During the awarding ceremonies, a week after the tournament, my officemate disclosed to me that the difference of my score with best female bowler is only 2 points! Second blow is our group's score has only less than a point from the champion.

Flashbacks filled my mind. I was the last to bowl in the group. Never thought that my last frame was the deciding factor but I never took heed. Though I got a strike on my first throw in the last frame, the second one was a waste hitting only a single pin. If I hit at least 5 pins on my second throw, then our group will go home the champion and I'll be this year's best female bowler again.


Too late for regrets. I can't forgive myself for allowing this mere negligence to happen. My officemate should haven't informed me so I'll never know that this thing happened. But she also reminded me to take it easy and still be grateful because I got promoted and our group placed second in the tournament.
