Today is the day of the try outs and Sam couldn't believe that his parents refused to support his dreams.He knew that he could sneak behind their back and still tryout but he prefers to be truthful.
"Good morning parents I'm going to try out today,please give me a chance I'll make you all proud okay." Sam plead but they ignored him and they hurried to work.
After Sam's accident his parents bought him a vehicle so that he can be more comfortable and safe when travelling to school.He drove to school anticipated with high hopes that'll he'll make his parents change their mind.
As he reached to school Jake spotted him,"Hey Sam I'm wishing you the best on your football try out today,I know you'll
do fine.""Thanks bro,I'm wishing you the best on your Aviation exam as well." They did their secret handshake and went about their separate ways.
At lunch he was approached by Chris,
"Listen to me,I will always be the best high school jock,If you try out today you're a rotten egg!" Sam was confused if it was a threat or Chris just trying to be comedic again.Sam continued to eat his sandwich and placed on his airpods to listen music.Later on that evening Mr.Lewis had called for all the competitors to assemble onto the field.
"To all the cheerleaders take your barbie girl in a barbie world some place else,the guys need to use this area now." Mr.Lewis said to the girls as they quickly gathered their stuff and left.
"Okay guys who's first?" Mr.Lewis shouted to the top of his lungs,whilst he gave them uniforms to put on for protection.
Exactly 20 buffed guys came to see if they can make the team.
Chris was already apart of the team for years and he's even the captain because he's the strongest and fastest of them all.He sat in the stands to observe them with his pathetic self."Mr.Sam you'll go first today,Give me 70 pushups right now and run around the gym 85 times." Mr.Lewis appointed and Sam did just so.
Everyone was amazed at how Sam made it look so simple.Even Chris's eyes gazed with a slight of envy,because he never knew that he was so good.The other guys couldn't even keep up with Sam's pace.He knocked down a tackling robot 50 times in 45 seconds and he never once showed any sign of exhaustion.
"Okay guys a job well done,but this segment has come to an end.Within three days time you'll get to find out if you've made the team or not.Go home and enjoy the weekend,I'll see you all on Monday." Mr.Lewis explained to them and they left that evening to their various destinations.
Sam came home to a shock of his life.With all his belongings stacked on the patio is when he realized that things have gotten serious.
He knocked onto the door hoping for a response, "Mom,dad please you all know I don't have no where to go,please open the door. Give me a chance to get on my feet please.All I have is $176 dollars in my bank account.Can you all help me first?You all know that I have been through so much already,please my parents treat me fairly."
Mrs.Peterson whispered, "Hunny don't you think that we're being a little hard on him?"
"My darling wife you need to understand,Sam wants to do his own thing and that's the consequences that he must pay for his actions."They both knocked their wine glasses together and sipped their beverage, then continued to ignore him.
Hey reader I hope you're enjoying so far.
