Tyler's POV
TYLER!
TYLER!!
TYLER!!!
I could hear the raging sound of the crowd as they were cheering my name and it only went louder at how swiftly I was able to snatch the ball out of Erick with the my undeniable footwork skills. A smirk escaped from my lips at the thought that he might not have seen that coming and made a chuckle upon seeing his shocked expression. I managed to juggle the ball till mid field despite of how many players were guarding me just to prevent me from going closer to the goal line where the goalkeeper is probably standing on his best position, ready to block my next attempt. I did some crazy stunts to distract my guards and when I finally got the perfect opportunity, I kicked the ball in a massive hit and...
"GOAL!!!" everyone shouted when the ball went into the goal making the goalkeeper stand shock in disbelief at my unpredictable move. The blistering pace of the ball made him unable to see and impossible block. The crowd went roaring and everyone made a resounding cheer.
3 : 2 our team won!
* * * * *
Practice was over but my co-team players and some other students who were there at the football field were still congratulating me about the game during our practice. Well, I guess they just couldn't get over about it and not to boast but having scored three goals in a game is pretty impressive for a freshmen like me. I thought to my self as I went inside the locker area and saw Tyron together with two other senior football players, making their way towards me.
"Nice game Tyler" Kyle said giving me a fist pound.
"You were great too" I said in response.
"Nah, I'm pretty sure it was all you. You owned that game, I just literally stood there at our goal post and did nothing. " he said and we all laughed.
Kyle is one of Tyron's best friend, probably the closest. He's goalkeeper no. 1 and one of the best in our team. He just has this ability to move in an absolute speed when he sees a ball coming and has an incredible reflex. We were team mates during the practice but if we weren't? I doubt I could be able to score a goal against him.
"Though I believe the third goal was accidental" Erick said in a jokey way and we all laughed at the memory on how I have managed to steal the ball out of him that made me hit the last goal and won.
"But seriously bro, you really did a great job" Tyron congratulated me with a tap on my shoulder.
"What can I say? It runs in the blood eyy?" I told him and we both laughed.
Tyron and I are brothers, he's four years older than me. Football is a game we both love. In fact, it's our favorite thing to do together as kids. Though it all had to end so soon when our parents broke up when I was six and that got us to be separated from each other. He lives here in the Philippines together with our dad while mom brought me to England and lived there. I am just happy because communications are now open for both parties and that mom and dad are slowly becoming okay, for now.
"Keep hitting goals like that and it will surely make you captain, no doubt" he said to me.
Tyron is a senior football player, a striker and captain of the Lecrost Team Warriors. With his impressive leadership, he has made the team unbeatable and brought the school football team to national competitions but not only is he a great captain, he's an incredible athlete too. This is why he is very popular in our school and one of the perks of being his brother is that you become popular as well. Popularity just got into me when they knew we are related, though people would often expect me to be like him too.
"What do you mean captain?" I asked him, though I already know what he is trying to say. Everyone in school expected me to be as good as my brother and when I had already proven that, they now expect me to be captain as well.
"I'm a senior now, sooner or later somebody has to take the thrown and I see no one else who is capable of doing it but you" he said, and thats when I knew I was right.
"I'm a freshmen, I have only been in this team for less than and I don't think I am ready for that" I told him
"So? I was captain during our elementary football club remember?" he said and I just couldn't hep but chuckle about what he just said.
"Hahaha!, that was different" I told him and smiled as I remember those memories way back elementary when we joined football club together.
"C'mon bro, think about it and besides you are better than five players in a team, combined!" he said making it sound like I'm the best player ever existed.
"Wait, does that include me?" Erick asked, he could be a bit weird sometimes.
"Well if that includes you then make it 10 x 2" kyle said and we all just bursted into laughter.
"Kayo talaga, hahaha! Teka guys may klase pa tayo diba?" Erick said in tagalog giving me no idea about what he just said. It has already been two years now since I came back here in the Philippines but I still find it hard to speak in tagalog, though I am really trying my best to learn and be able to speak.
"Oo nga, cge see you later Tyler we have to go. Tara na Tyron baka ma late tayo" kyle said and hearing the words class and late signifies me that they must leave to catch their class maybe.
"Think about it bro" my brother said to me "You know how important this is to me and dad" he continued and I gave him a nod in response. I cannot disappoint him not even dad. That is something that I will never think of doing. Football gave me the opportunity to be with my brother and my dad and it might be a possible way for my family to reunite. So if this is the for us to be family again, then I'll do it!
* * * * * *
After the morning practice, I ran hurriedly to my class to catch it on time since the bell hasn't rang yet. I always get scolded by my teachers because of my constant tardiness and practice has always been my every reason so decided to take a shortcut, which I always do by the way. Walking through an empty hallway, I stopped when I heard a girl singing with the piano. Her voice is just so captivating and beautiful as it echoed through the hallway. I followed where the voice might be coming from which I believe is from the music room.
*girl singing*
" Oouuuhhhh....
Sharupupummmm... Sharapupummmmm......
Yeaaahh yeeeahhh!!! "
As I went closer and closer, I could hear her voice more clearly now. Her voice made me lost at the moment and I just felt the urge to know who she might be so creep into the music room entrance just to see a glimpse of her but before I was able to open the door . . .
Ccrrriiinngggg!
The bell rang making me come back into my senses and I realized that I should really be going right now because classes will be starting at any minute now but all of the sudden the voice stopped and I heard a shutting sound of a door. I entered the music room as quickly as I was able hoping that I could still catch her inside but she was already gone and made me wonder even more.
Who could that mystery girl be? I asked my self as I head off for my class.
