delcroix heirs' academy ✔ chapter three

romaine severine beauregard.

I panted, as I ran another lap. Walang susuko. I am training football with my other members sa football club, and I am really disappointed because I don't see determination crossing their eyes.

I am willing to go through thorns para mas mag-improve kami, and I just can't see how they even like football. Sure, we're one of the greatest teams in the competitions, pero it is so not enough.

We needed to be the best of the best.

So far, we've ran six laps around the field. Only. Konti palang.

After a few seconds of resting, I stood up and then wore my goalkeeper gloves since I was the goal keeper and also the captain of the team.

I went to the posts, and they all looked at me as if I was some crazy kid.

"Stop looking at me and form a straight line. Let's train your kicks," I said, and Maree, one of the members, whined.

"But we've been practicing those kicks ever since the first day of school at wala pang bagong members! We're also so tired right now," sabi ni Maree, at may mga nag-agree naman sa kanya.

My usually serious look got even more serious, as disappointment passed my eyes. Gusto ba talaga nilang mag-improve? Gusto ba talaga nila ng football?

"Wow. So you're telling me that half an hour training is enough para maging best? Hell no. Training takes time, and magugustuhan niyo ang result if only you are patient. Sana patient kayo, because this is for us," sabi ko, and then she looked down before nodding.

Call me harsh, but this is who I am and I always want to win. I want to win with my team, as a team. Not just because I was alone.

I want to win with them, to show them na masaya ang football at hindi lamang basta basta club na iiwan mo after you graduate.

"Line up," sabi ko, while clapping my gloves hands.

Naririnig kong bumubuntong hininga pa ang iba sa kanila, pero hinayaan ko lang ito. If they want to see what training looks like, this is what they'll get.

"Maree, mauna ka," sabi ko. "Walang babalik sa likod hanggang hindi kayo nakakagoal."

They groaned, but I didn't care. This is for us, team. Malalaman niyo din sooner kung bakit ganito ko kayo kahard na tinetrain. Wala pa tayong coach, kaya please, bear with me.

Hindi pa ako sapat.

Maree then kicked the ball hard, but I only caught it in a matter of half a second. I tossed the ball back to where it used to be, and then she kicked again, but I caught it.

She once again kicked, now furrowing her eyebrows. I didn't even have to try hard to catch the ball, to be honest, at binalik ko ito sa kanya. My players are one of the best, pero hindi pa ito sapat para maging best of the best. We're always neck on neck with Rakuzen Academy, always ending up in draw.

Kailangan naming manalo.

Sinipa niyang muli ang bola, at nasapo ko ito. Bakit hindi siya makagoal? We're supposed to be one of the best, heck, almost the best, pero bakit hindi niya mailusot ang bola sa mga kamay ko?
