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.

Replica

<Just when you were starting to miss her, her lookalike popped up from nowhere>

'Keep quiet, Catherine.'

"Hi, Emilia." He said, sounding a bit nervous.

"Can I come in?"

"Sure." He said before making way for her to enter the house.

"Where's Emma?" Emilia asked as soon as she entered the room.

She was carrying a bigger handbag compared to the one she was always with so she had to drop it on the dining table.

"Um…Emma." The goalkeeper said, scratching the back of his head.

"Is she still at work?" She asked.

"No." He replied.

"Okay, then she must be upstairs then." She said before taking two steps toward the staircase.

"She's not there either." He said.

"Huh?" She said before she slowly turned her gaze to him. "Then where is she?"

"Um…Emma wasn't feeling too well last night so I took her to the hospital, it turns out she has some kind of dangerous flu and will be spending two days in the hospital." He explained.
