Chapter 16 - No promises

"But we all retired in the same year. Indeed, Barry Sanders is a professional footballer and also a legend like you said."

[Both Laughing]

"Maybe we can talk more about that later."

[Both] "Okay Coach Theodore"

"We are going to play our best to put the team at a higher level, and we can promise you that, Coach Theodore." [Garriso]

[Coach Theodore smiled] "Oh, that's great, and I believe that Garriso." [Coach Theodore]

" Yeah, Coach Theodore, my brother is right and thank you for believing in us. We really appreciate you, Coach Theodore. " [Lefah]

"Oh, that's great and you guys can make promises just like upcoming presidential. They will make all the promises, but they can't do them. At the end of the year, he or she will be in power or control, just like some governors in Africa. I know them but can't mention their names here because of time. So don't promise but just show me how you can play after training my boys." [Coach Theodore]

[Both Laughing]

"Yeah, maybe I can't remember my words if those presentations call me to explain to them, so let's get back to the team boys." [Coach Theodore]

[Both Laughing again]

[Both] "Okay Coach Theodore"

[As they went back to the team, back to the dressing room. The team were just getting themselves ready to train on the pitch this time.]

[Door opens and closed]

"Hey Coach Theodore, are you done talking to them?" [Coach Wilson asked immediately]

"Yeah, manager and I think they're ready to play for us please." [Coach Theodore]

"Okay, this sounds great Coach Theodore." [Coach Wilson]

"Yeah, and let's hope for better achievement from them, manager." [Coach Theodore]

"Okay, but you're their coach, and you're going to train them, so I'll be hoping for more updates on their improvements as soon as possible this weekend please." [Coach Wilson]

"Hey, don't worry and I got this. I will send you more updates even before the weekend starts, so that you can create a complete lineup for this season's league." [Coach Theodore]

"Okay, thank you, Coach Theodore, and if anything let me know. Thanks once again, and I am very happy working with you, Coach Theodore." [Coach Wilson]

[Both smiled and shook hands]

"Yeah, I'm happier for your first running back player's signing. I mean Lefah and Garriso to our team, Coach Wilson." [Coach Theodore]

[Coach Wilson smiles again]

"Yeah, it's my responsibility to make the team complete and have good playing conditions, Coach Theodore." [Coach Wilson]

"Okay master, please, time is spent, so let's get to work now." [Coach Theodore]

"Yeah, Coach Theodore, so what's next?"

"Hey! Boys, please come around and let me introduce Lefah and Garriso once again to our football team. Hey! Let's all say a big welcome to them." [Coach Theodore]

The team cheers and says," You're welcome to Rigby High School football team guys!"

"Okay, now we're done dressing. We can leave for the train station now. Hey! " The last man to get there will be in trouble and I mean my words." [Coach Theodore]

[Coach Theodore shouted at them to run fast.] "Hurry up; be quick. Let's go. Practice starts in five minutes. Set off! Roll!"

[Clomped footsteps running out] [Leave the door open]

[The players left the dressing room and left the door open.]

"Hey, Coach Wilson. I thought we would start training today please. " [Lefah]

"Yeah, I can see how ready you want to train, but no boys. Don't be in a hurry to play today, because you have many days ahead to play football. So come dower you will play." [Coach Wilson]

[Garriso] "Okay Coach Wilson, we understand."

"Very good. But you can follow me to the training field, only if you want, boys." [Coach Wilson]

[Both] "Okay Coach Wilson."

[Lefah's voice continues] Garriso and I dream is to play football just like Barry Sanders. With the help of Miss. Madison, we are now part of the Rigby High School football team just to start our journey as youngsters. " We will be starting training tomorrow and that's what our head coach, Larry Wilson, told us when leaving the high school football team camp at home after watching them train. "

Larry Wilson is the new head football coach for Rigby High School and his assistance is Coach Theodore. Rigby High School is a public high school in the Western United States, located in Rigby, Idaho. Coach Wilson is the new head manager who signed Lefah and Garriso to their high school football team to start their football journey.

"This is where our journey begins. Garriso and I have never played American football before, but we want to play and make sure we play our best just like those players already in the team."

"I know once I have my best friend as my sidekick, we are going to fight and work hard to complete our journey successfully as professional footballers in the American football league."

"Coach Wilson told us to go back home and prepare ourselves for tomorrow's training because the league days are numbered. Coach Theodore is the one who's going to train us as running backs players. The first time I set my eye on seeing Coach Theodore, I thought he was going to be such a difficult man, because his appearance looked like a very difficult man."

"But Coach Theodore is such a cool old man but has a lion appearance. I really like how Coach Theodore talks and smiles. Coach Theodore talks to us respectfully. He wasn't like Miss. Madison, like rude or something bad."

"We can't wait to get on the pitch playing just like those players. " We can't imagine how this is going to work, but we will play, and nothing can stop us playing football just like Barry Sanders did in the 90s."

[Lefah and Garriso on the street, going back home after watching them training.]

"Hey bro, do you think it's a good idea to tell Miss Anna that we are now part of the high school's football team?" [Lefah]

"Yes bro. And Miss. Anna is the first person to know about this before anybody else, Lefah. And for how long are we going to keep her not knowing? She will surely get to know, so let's tell her before she finds out bro. That will be horrible if she does." [Garriso]
