𝐖𝐄 𝐖𝐄𝐑𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐀𝐁 and had to decide if we should try to go to the world tournament. We were all yelling at each other until Zoe's father came in.

"So what did you decide?" Zoe's father asked. "Some want to take risks, others don't!" I told him. "Zoe, you decide. You are the captain"

"Lara, you yourself said that this is our last year. These may be the last games we play together. How do you want us to part? I prefer to go to the World Cup, and if we don't qualify. Nothing! We'll leave knowing we tried. In my opinion, this is the best way to complete the cycle. What do you think? What do you think? Shall we risk it? Zoe said

"I hadn't thought about that," said Lara. "Then, what do you decide?" Francisco asked with a smile, proud of his daughter's words! Zoe is really becoming a captain and she proved it, right at that moment. "Let's do everything we can to go to the worlds, see how far we can go for the worlds," Lara said. "Only Phoenix!" we all screamed. We were determined to go and do our best.

The boys were training during this time and I couldn't stop thinking about the fight with Arturo earlier. I really thought he was cute, but after we had a fight, NO more! We were still in the laboratory. We were screaming Zoe's name. "It's good that Zoe is our captain!" said Celeste. "Thank you, thank you, but now we have to focus on training to qualify." Zoe said.

Joaquin came and interrupted our conversation as always. "As you all know, I am a candidate for school board president. I am collecting suggestions on what can be changed in the school," he said. "I have a proposal," Delphina raised her hand. "What is? What is?" Joaquin asked with interest. "Women's soccer team," she said. "Yes, great idea" said the girls. "What do you say, Carla?" Celeste asked me. "What are we talking about?" I asked.

I was too busy thinking about Arturo. We are neither friends, nor are we together, but it just made me feel stupid that we hadn't gotten to know each other yet, and the first scandal was already on our face. "Whatever!" replied Delphine. "Why can men have a football team and we can't?" she said. "Women's football?" repeated Joaquin confused. "Yes, most of us will be happy to join." "When you think about it, women's football is not rooted in the tradition and love of the Academy. Any other suggestions?" he asked. Delfina raised her hand again and said: "Me", Joaquin answered: "Yes?". "Go away," said Delfina.

Indeed, Joaquin, cutting her off for her proposal, made her feel dumb. She and I will be happy to join in because we love playing soccer. Everyone started clapping, telling Joaquin to go. He left and we were just girls. I wanted to go to the room already and I simply said: "I will go to my room! If it's something important, call me." I went to my room.

Zoe knocked on the door. I got up and opened it: What's up? I asked her. "You've been acting strange lately, isn't it because of Arturo?" she asked. "Are we interfering with him again? I don't like it" I said. "On the contrary, you like him, it shows. You're angry because you had a fight," she said. She knew everything about me, we have known each other since childhood and I love her very much. She is like a sister to me and we really have a lot in common. "Okay, that's it! It's just that we haven't met yet, and already the first scandal is on my face, and I'm angry because of the fact that I like him a lot, and he clearly doesn't want to talk to me and doesn't like me." said. "Give him time, he can't start liking you from the third day. And I am 100 percent sure that things will be done in the future. You're beautiful, smart, funny, charming, I'm sure he'll like you!" Zoe said. "Thank you for giving me courage" I hugged her.
