Richard was at school today, but unlike other days, today was special.It was the final deans cup competition match.Everyone was excited because the class would be lifting the trophy if they won the match.“Are we all excited about the match?” Thomas loudly said. He was the sport coordinator of the class and no doubt he was hoping to see his class win.“Yes we are”, the whole class shouted unanimously.“Then let's move to the field to support our classmates,” Thomas uttered loudly.Within minutes, the whole class headed to the sports field. It was at this time that Charles bumped into Richard who was heading in a different direction.Richard had never been interested in joining the class for sport because he usually used this time to run errands for other kids to earn money.“Richard , where are you heading to? The sports field is in the right direction. Why do you want to turn left?Don't tell me you won't be joining us again today because I won't accept that” Charles uttered.Char
Even though Thomas wasn't impressed,he could not do anything about it. He just has to allow Richard to play the match. Other colleagues had already given up hope, they already saw themselves taking second position and unable to lift up the cup this year. It was already 5 minutes to the end of the match and they were two goals down. The score was already 3:1 against them so for them to win the artist scored three more goals within 5 minutes which was absolutely impossible to them. Richard entered with high hope. He was shown something can still be done. Although he was criticized by others.When he entered the match,his first shot came as a corner which was played by one of his colleagues then he had to win it with a powerful header that came as a blast to the goal post, unable to be caught by the goalkeeper. It's a goal! Everyone screamed in jubilation that Richard had scored a goal.Even though they hated him,the goal came as a surprise and they could not use the way they feel ab
Richard was disappointed that he thought that he'd be able to help his class to win the trophy, but it seems like he was wrong about it because he's got you so scared to play against those strong opponents who were against them. “To win this game we don't need to be scared of them, we just have to use our skill and team unity and that's all we can do without getting scared of their appearance. This is the game of football, and it requires skills and togetherness for us to come up as champions”, Richard advised. The other mates also wanted a win for their class, and they could see that their classmates watching from a distance weren't impressed with their performance, so they had to do it right this time and follow the advice of Richard to work as a team while making the goals at the opponent's goal post. “Let's do this, Richard . I think I'm ready for a win against this opponent”, Oliver voiced out, and so did the rest of his mates playing the game. Even if they despised Richard
Richard made his way to the velvet restaurant where he had agreed to meet up with Amelia.He had really dressed up very nicely because he wanted to impress Amelia.“You're welcome,”the security guard said at the sight of Richard .“Thank you” Richard said as his eyes darted across the hall in sharp, quick movements, scanning faces in the crowd with brief pauses, searching for the one he needed to find.“Are you looking for someone?” the security guard asked, trying to be helpful.It was at this point that Richard caught sight of Amelia sitting at one of the reserved tables.“You don't have to worry, I have seen the one who I'm looking for”, Richard said calmly, with a smile on his face while he walked towards Amelia's direction.Amelia was already getting worried that Richard was taking too long. Her fingers tapped nervously against her leg, and her eyes flickered restlessly around the room, searching for a familiar face.Then she saw the man she had been waiting for staring at
"What a shame” Amelia echoed, disappointed that Richard could courageously say such things to her face without being ashamed of it.While this conversation was going on, Richard got a call on his phone and realized that it was Mr James who was trying to reach him. He couldn't pick this call in front of Amelia so he had to excuse himself.“Just give me a few seconds. I want to make use of the restroom,” Richard immediately excused himself.Richard immediately left her and headed to the restaurant. This was an important call he had to attend to. Mr James wouldn't call him unless it was something really important.Meanwhile, Amelia was all alone in the hall waiting for Richard .She was approached by a young man who looked well-dressed in an expensive suit. He wore an expensive watch and shoes. No doubt anyone could easily tell that he was a wealthy man.He had been admiring Amelia from afar and was about to approach her before Richard interrupted initially. Amelia was a ver
Then Nathan gave a signal to some men outside the restaurant to come over to the hall.Within a few minutes, Richard was surrounded by several men that were huge in appearance, broad-shouldered, tall and fiercely looking.Richard didn't understand the reason why Nathan would want this man to come over and surround him; perhaps he did not understand what Nathan meant by that he was going to use his power against him.“I want you to throw this man out of this place. I have tried to offer him some amount of money for him to leave this young lady for me, but he, had refused, so I had no choice but to throw him out of this place by force”, Nathan vehemently.It was at this point Richard understood what was going on.“Stop right there and do not think of coming any closer”, Richard said, as the men came closer to him.They were surprised to hear the bold statement from Richard and stood still to hear him out.“I know you are men working under Nathan, but you could earn much more workin
“We are done with what you wanted us to do so we can have the $300,000”the leader uttered.“I won't be able to give you that amount of money,” Richard uttered.When they heard this statement from Richard they were really furious.“Will you be able to bear the consequences of what you just said? I doubt you can. Just give us that amount of money and let's get out of here” the leader said.The men this time around were really furious and were vibrating ready to pounce on Richard .‘I don't have that amount of money, so where do you want me to get that amount to pay you? 'Richard said.Amelia , at this point, was already under so much pressure and helpless, she could not do anything about this situation even though she didn't like Richard , she did not want any harm to happen to him.It was at this point one of the men took one of the chairs close to him and was about to hit Richard with it.“Go to hell you man,” he said furiously.But he noticed a strong hand preventing him from thr
It was at this point that Richard discovered that he had uttered something.“I did not say anything, I'm just appreciating Mr Thomas for coming to our rescue”, Richard reluctantly said.Since Amelia did not hear clearly what Richard said, she let it go.She was still a bit curious to know why Thomas was there at the exact time that Richard was about to be beaten.When Thomas realized this, he decided to still remind Amelia of the reason why he was there so that she would not suspect Richard further.“Like I said earlier, I was just passing by when I found out something like this was happening, and I came to resolve the issue, so now that I'm done here I will have to take my leave”, Thomas said convincingly.Amelia felt convinced by Thomas' words because that was the only way that she could explain the situation.Thomas left the scene with his men. Only Richard and Amelia were left, but they also separated because they had been able to achieve the purpose of their meeting.Amelia
