บท 74: Good Deal

"Oh, come on," Dave said in frustration as he watched the ball fly past the crossbar.

<That was really close>

'I don't care about how really close it gets, I just want it to hit the damn crossbar.'

He took a few steps backward before closing up on the second ball and with a kick, he sent it flying toward his target.

He watched the ball as it flew toward the crossbar and smashed on it before falling over.

"Yes!" He said with an excited voice.

<That's one out of two, I think you're off to a good start>

The next two balls had flown past the crossbar without touching it but they had both come really close to hitting it.

"Off to a good start." He muttered before biting his lower lip.

<You were off to a good start until you missed those two and now it's one out of four>

'You don't need to remind me of that.'

He stared at the last ball on the floor and took a deep breath before closing his eyes.

He pulled his leg back and kicked the ball with less short power and more precision.
