Synopsis

Chapter 1 - 1.Kobe Bryant

"Abdi!, pass the football!", "Haah, haah", breathing heavily and looking up Abdi saw his friend Kevin running beside him as they moved closer towards the goal.

The keeper knowing he had no choice came out as quickly as he could, seeing this Abdi decided to pass to his friend, "great pass!".

"Boom!", a loud thud could be heard as Kevin connected with the ball homing it into the goal. "Let's goooo" Kevin then celebrated madly as he ran to the corner flag.

Abdi right behind him also screamed as they both celebrated like they won the World Cup, and you must be wondering that this is an important game in a league right?.

No this is just P.E, but to Abdi And Kevin, P.E is a life and death game, if a person is not willing to try they kick him off of the team. So that's how they ended up playing against the best team in the whole P.E class, somehow still winning.

"Kevin, we're too good!", "yeah bro, I can't believe that they let us win, when they had the best team with the best players!".

"We're just them guys haha" Abdi and Kevin then broke out into laughter. "Ok guys! Bring over the footballs and equipments" the P.E teacher shouted standing at the gate.

"Let's get going and change, man fuck!, I just realised we have science last" Kevin said as they walked towards the changing rooms.

"Yeah, I wish P.E was after science so then we'd end off on something fun". Abdi then entered the changing room as he started changing. "Abdi, you and Kevin won by luck", "hell nah, you just wack at football hahaha".

Abdi and his friend Charlie laughed as he was also on their team. "Don't worry next week your losing", "that is not happening, your whole team are made up of the best football players so how did you lose?", "cause I'm just better haha".

"You ain't better, we were just lacking today".

"Sureee" Abdi gave Marcus a look saying you lying.

After they all changed, Abdi then headed towards science, entering the building he saw some of his friends, one such girl called Millie, "hello Mille" he put his arms around her shoulder as he greeted her and her friends.

"Oh hey Abdi, you got science with us?", "yeah I moved up to set 1 now" Abdi said laughing, he conversed with rest as the teacher arrived.

"Hello guys, sit down in your seating plans, today we'll be learning about genetics and evolution".

As the teacher continued the class Abdi recalled what had happened in P.E and he couldn't help but smile. The class continued with Abdi finally focusing, soon the bell rang indicating the end of school.

"Let's go, tomorrow is Friday I only have one more day till the weekend". Abdi grabbed his bag as he put his schoolbook inside walking out with his friends.

As he walked towards the gate he met up with his best friend, Ahmed. "Yo ahmed, you wanna walk home together or is your mum picking you up?".

"My mum said she'll be late, so lates walk home instead". "Aight let's go". The walk towards Abdi's house from school always took him 30 minutes so for the next 30 minutes they talked about everything from anime to girls to sports.

Getting closer to his house Ahmed said "yo bro, this my turn imma see you tomorrow yeah?".

"Yeah bro, see you tomorrow". "Safe", "safe".

(Author-note, safe is slang for bye in England)

Walking home, Abdi thought about what he wanted to do "should I hop on the ps4 and play Fortnite?, nah not right now", "I'll watch some highlights of Neymar instead".

After walking for 5 more minutes, he arrived home, "hello mom, I'm home", "hello dear, how was school?".

"It was ok, nothing much happened today". "That's great, I made some pasta, take a plate and eat".

"Ok, I'm going to change first". Abdi then walked to his room as he started taking off his school uniform. He then turned on his ps4 as he went to the kitchen, getting a plate and scooping some pasta out.

Coming back into the room he sat down on his chair as he put on YouTube, watching some Neymar highlights as he ate. After eating he continued watching more football highlights as he finished a ousmane dembélé compilation.

Looking for another highlight video to watch, a basketball video of a man wearing 8 popped up. "Kobe Bryant dunking on Dwight Howard?, who the hell are these people?".

Intrigued, he clicked on the video as he sipped his capri-sun. Soon a video that looked pretty old played as he saw the man squeeze through a small gap of defenders, then leap in the sky as if he where flying, "what?!" Abdi glued his face to the screen as he saw the man ride a person double his height.

"No wayyy!" Laughing Abdi replayed the video, seeing the man look down at the other man wearing the number 12 Abdi couldn't help but think, "I always thought basketball was boring not gonna lie, but this guy wearing the number 8 is cold!".

Abdi then clicked onto the search bar as he wrote "Kobe Bryant highlights", a panel of videos came up "he changed numbers too?, the 24 looks good too".

Interested in basketball for once he clicked a video highlighting Kobe Bryant's top 40 best plays. Watching he felt his heart beat faster, "even tho I'm good at football, my friends and teachers always say I'm too tall and I should try out basketball".

"Although I always said no, tomorrow at lunch I might aswell play basketball to see if I enjoy it".

Abdi stood at 5'10 and he was only 13 years old, he didn't have a lot of muscles as he was on the leaner side, his skin complexion was very light as he was Somali being light brown/caramel.

"It doesn't hurt to try it tomorrow, I might not even enjoy it anyway", with that he continued watching more highlights of Kobe as he liked the way he played. He also watched highlights of LeBron, "hmm, no matter how much basketball isn't big here in England I've heard of LeBron, but his style of basketball isn't as appealing as Kobe's for me".

Watching more, he got into basketball more than ever, he then got a notification from his friends telling him to hop in the party to play Fortnite. So he exited YouTube starting Fortnite.

"Yooo Abdi", "yoo, let's run some squads, I haven't won a lot of them guys", Abdi said as he got enthusiastic about playing. "Your such a noob Abdi hahaha", the rest of the ps4 party laughed.

"I wish we could one v one, you know I'd beat you, I'm literally one of the best in the party at Fortnite".

Abdi continued arguing as he played until his mom walked in to tell him to go sleep. "Abdi, it's 9:30, now go to bed, tomorrow your sister will wake up at 7".

"Ok mom, this is my final game, we're about to die" Abdi said as on the screen it showed that their was only 3 people remaining in the circle.

"Ok, afterwards turn it off and sleep" his mom said, "ok, no worries", Abdi spectated as he was killed prior, sitting there his hurt beat raced, "Kevin don't sell, we gotta go sleep with a win" "shush Abdi, let me focus!".

He then watched as his friend engaged in a build fight, the opponent was taking high ground so Kevin stopped building as he started axing the structure.

"Kevin quick, before he realises!", Kevin then broke the final build as the opponent fell to his death.

"Let's gooooo!" Abdi and his friends celebrated, "I gotta go now", "yeah me too, see you Tomorrow", they all then said goodbye. Abdi got up as he went to the bathroom, brushing his teeth and taking a shower. He then climbed onto his bed, tucking himself to bed.
