[sun's prospective].

Kim was saying everything he could to convince Blue's father to let him continue soccer, and Blue is just standing in the corner looking at the floor. He was not looking good it is showing at his face. I wonder why is he looking so gloomy and why isn't speaking up?

"Sorry, son. But soccer is dangerous for Blue." Said Blue's father. His father's words don't make any sense at all. How could playing soccer be dangerous?

"Dangerous! what is so dangerous about soccer Krit?" An old woman who was sitting on the master chair told asked Blue's father.

"Mom you know Blue is not like other kids. Don't force him to do things that he doesn't want to do. It was you, always you, who forces him to do such dangerous stuff." The older man in the wheelchair is barging at his mother. I wondered why did his father tell that Blue was not like other kids?!

"Football won't kill you son Krit. Having pulmonary embolism (PE) doesn't mean that he can't run or play like other kids. Your overprotectiveness is turning him into an introvert. Just let him play Soccer. Look It is changing him, he is even making friends."
Blue's grandma is telling that Bule is a sick boy. I didn't know that Blue is a sick boy. He never seems sick to me but I always thought he had some problem. I always wonder why he didn't wayed or smile at me before, now it's clear it was just because he is an introvert kid. His grandma is right. Being in the football team made Blue less introverted. He is opening up and I down want him to be the same old sad boy inside the car.

"Mom I don't want to argue with you anymore. Blue is sick. He cannot do such kind of harsh stuff. Look at his first day of practice and he broke his nose." Bule's father's words are confusing me.

Confusing because Blue didn't fall when he was practicing, he fell because he tripped on his own shoelace.

"He didn't fell when he was playing soccer." Kim immediately said what is in my mind.

"What?" All of Blue's family dazed at Kim. Now it is clear it was just a misunderstanding. I hope that if the misunderstanding would be clear then his family will let him play.

"Yes! He didn't feel on the soccer field."Kim expected the situation to his parents but it doesn't matter. They are still not allowing blue to play. Clearing up the misunderstanding doesn't matter at all. This back and forth agreement was going on between Blue's father, grandma and Kim distracted me. Distracted me that I forgot about Blue.

Blue is no more in the room. He is gone. My eyes wandered around the huge house looking for his glimpse he was no were to be found. So I went looking at him. Nobody noticed me going; just like nobody noticed that Blue was gone.

After a few minutes of wandering around the huge house, I give up my hope. The house is huge it may take a lifetime to go around looking for him. Then I heard a weeping sound behind a closed closet door. I opened the door and there was he sitting inside the closest and crying. His eyes are filled with tears and embarrassment.
