I focused on the goal that was half a field away. Not too far. I moved down the field, towards the goal and took the soccer ball with me. My friends tried to get the ball from me, but I was too fast for them. I was almost there when this guy came out of nowhere and took the ball from me. I was able to keep up with him, but I couldn't take the ball from him. And not even a minute later, he kicked it and scored a goal. I pouted and went over to the sideline to get a drink of water. How the heck could he get the ball from me? Where the heck did he even come from? I hadn't even seen him when we started the game. Since that was the goal that ended the game, I grabbed my bag and left.
On my way home, I decided to stop at a cafe. It was on my way and I really wanted a bubble tea. I tightened my ponytail as I looked at the menu.
"You were pretty good out there," a voice commented from beside me.

I looked and was shocked to see the boy from earlier. "Um, yeah."
"I'm Luhan," he supplied.
"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm ______," I answered.
"Well, what flavor of bubble tea were you going to get?" Luhan kindly asked.
"Um...hmm...taro."
Luhan smiled at me. "I'll be back in a minute or two. Please just wait here."
With that, he left. I looked around and saw him at the register ordering and paying. I smiled. I would have to thank him for it sometime. In a couple more minutes, Luhan was back at my side.
"Come on. I'll walk you home," he told me.
We left the cafe and began the walk to my house. While we walked, we talked and sipped our bubble tea. When we reached my house, we switched numbers and bid our goodbyes.
"I'll see you tomorrow at the soccer field. Say three?" Luhan asked.
"Sure," I smiled.
He smiled back and left. This was going to be fun.
