*a year later*

I just turned 14 years old and had a big party, friday night, now saturday morning playing a big game for the champion ship. We are in the finale, i'm the best player of the team, the best girl and better the the boys, aswel the captain of the team, everyone respects me, but i respect them more, it's only 5 more minutes and it's 19-18 for us, if we win we will be champion. i jump to catch the ball, but then i feel it, my opponent, pushes me in my back, i land wrong, the pain shoots to my ankle, i cry out as loud as i can. I knew this could happen, i always go for the ball, need to win, to competitive.
I still lay on the ground, i won and have the ball but the timer goes on stop and everyone rushes to me, including my trainer, who plays in the first team, the highest you can get, it's my goal, but i'm in B1 cause it's sorted on your age, when your 18 you make a change on the first team.
The timer stand still on 3.47

"are you okay?" "where does it hurt?" "Can you still play?" i hear a lot of questions, but i can't focus on anything i hit my head. i feel like i am about to pass out. some one passes me a water bottle and i drink water, the pain in my ankle is incredible, i don't think i can walk but it's only three minutes, i focus again drink more water and try to get up, i start to cry of pain, but stop quickly. i need to play.
"Crystal, can you play?" my couch Kyle asks.
"of course i can, we need to win."
"okay i know you're lying, we will talk after now win the game."
"I will."
So get up and hear the signal and play the game out, the opponent scores, we need to score to win because it's tied, with only 20 seconds on the clock. i get the ball and shoot, i miss i sprint to the ball and catch it, it score with only 2 seconds on the clock. i scream out of joy. We won!
