Meanwhile, a 3-year-old boy was watching the match with admiration, longing to play for Nonstar FC even though he was only 3 years old.
—13 years later—
The boy from that year was now a freshman in high school, he started in a completely new class, with new friends, new environment, new way of learning, different from middle school, it was completely harder. He knew that high school would be difficult and he would have less time to play soccer.. When he was in primary school, he always hid from his parents to play football and always had a dream of playing for Nonstar FC.
On Wolfe's first day of school, during the second period, he was listening to his teacher when suddenly, the boy at the next table said:
"Hey man"
Wolfe looked over at the guy next to him and didn't look like he really wanted to have a proper conversation.
'*His name is Finn Haston, a bad student in middle school but because he copied another student's work, he was lucky to be promoted to high school*'
"What school do you come from?" Finn asked
"Ah...well...I came from high school like everyone else" Wolfe answered hesitantly, he was still a bit unfamiliar with his new classmates.
"What's wrong with you, I'm asking for the name of your middle school" Finn said
The teacher saw the two of them talking to each other and immediately reminded them.
"Hey you two at the back of the class, don't want to study, go out!"
Finn and Wolfe both turned around immediately and focused on the lecture.
...
During recess, Wolfe was drinking water when Finn came up and made his acquaintance.
"You looked so stupid in class, Wolfe"
Wolfe was shy and said nothing, Finn continued.
"Do you know how to play soccer?"
Wolfe was surprised by Finn's question, Wolfe immediately shook his head shyly.
"When I was a child, I didn't know what playing football was."
Finn looked at Wolfe with suspicion that he was lying.
"It's okay if you're interested you can join our soccer team, it's not strong but it's famous in school"
Wolfe could see that he still wanted to play for that team even though he had only met him once. He had a feeling that his team was lacking players.
"So, what's your team name?" Wolfe asked
"Manstar is Manstar" Finn replied
"Ok, I will join when I have free time."
"Remember that" Finn said his last words and left.
Wolfe stood there and had many thoughts, whether in high school he would play more soccer or study more, the big problem was with his parents.
...
Wolfe was on his way home when he saw some children playing soccer in the village. When he saw Wolfe and asked him to play soccer with him, he agreed and played soccer until late afternoon and he was not hungry yet.
He really got the joy of playing football back, school days were more stressful than anything else. Now he just wants to de-stress a little.
...
When he got home it was already 1pm, he saw his parents still sitting at the dining table waiting for him to come home, their faces were not very happy, it seemed like something was about to happen to him.
