My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

"Alright, you two, I'm going to head to bed now," Martha said before getting up from the couch where he was sitting together with Dave and Emma.

"Alright, then, goodnight," Dave said.

"Good night, mum," Emma said before resting her head on Dave's thighs.

"You know you have to go to work tomorrow so don't stay up late, Emma."

"Come on, mum, I'm not a little girl anymore." She said before turning her gaze to her mother.

"Yeah, to others you're not a little girl anymore but you'll always be my little girl," Martha said as she made her way toward the staircase. "So, don't stay up too late."

Dave waited until she was off the staircase before he turned his gaze to his wife.

"My little girl." He said with a little chuckle.

"Just, don't." She said with a grumpy voice.

<You better listen>

She ended up falling asleep on his thighs twenty minutes later so he had to carry her upstairs.
