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.

Level Up And Reduce The Risk

Dave and Emma were sitting on the bench outside when the doctor opened the door and walked out with a small file in his hand.

"What's the result, doctor?" Dave got up from the seat to ask.

The doctor turned his gaze to Emma and turned it back to Dave before handing him the results of the test.

"Congratulations, Mr. Dave, your wife's been pregnant for a while, she's three weeks gone." The doctor said,

"Three weeks?"

As soon as Emma heard those words, she covered her face with both of her hands before putting her face down.

"Hey," Dave said before he slowly sat down beside her and wrapped his arms around her. "Why are you crying?"

"I'm not crying, I'm smiling." She said before turning to him to reveal the warm smile on her face but her face was also covered with tears.

"I included a lot of things you should do and avoid and also dietary habits you should follow in that file, since this is your first time, it will come in handy."

"Thank you, doc," Dave said.
