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.

Found A Way Around It

The goalkeeper pushed the door open to find his wife in the living room working on something on her laptop.

"Oh, you're back." She quickly turned her gaze to him and said as soon as she heard the door open.

"Yeah." He said as he quickly made his way to her and dropped the bag on the couch beside her. "That's everything you wanted."

She quickly grabbed the bag and brought out the orange soda before checking again to see that everything she asked for was in there.

"Oh, Dave, you're the best." She said before quickly pulling him down for a hug. "Thank you."

"Don't mention it." He said before turning toward the staircase. "I'll be upstairs in case you need me."

"Okay."

With that said, the goalkeeper made his way upstairs and straight to the room, and after getting there, he crashed down on the bed.

'Now, back to what we were doing before she got back.' He said subconsciously after letting out a few muffled breaths.
