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.

"You got me a beautiful necklace like this and you didn't even bother to give it to me," Emma said before sitting down beside him on the couch.

"I was going to give it to you and then…"

"What?" She asked, turning her gaze to him.

"I forgot." He said.

"Is this the gift you were getting me at the mall?" She asked.

"Ummm…yeah, that's it." He said with a nod.

"And then you forgot to give it to me."

She wasn't exactly buying what he was selling here.

"I'm sorry." He said grabbing the necklace from her. "Let me put it on you."

She stared at him without moving and she didn't have a pleased look on her face.

"Come on babe."

"Okay." She said with a sigh before turning her back to him.

The goalkeeper opened the necklace and put it around her neck before locking it.

"It looks nice on you." He said after stretching his head to take a look at how it looked on her.

"Yeah." She said, touching the heart-shaped crystal on the necklace. "Thank you."

"Anything for you." He said.
