My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

Dramatic Opening

'So, I can get rewards by just setting up things that help me improve?' Dave said subconsciously as he made his way into the house.

<Yeah, that's just about it>

'And you were trying to stop me from doing it?'

<I was just trying to see how much you really wanted to do it>

'And what if I had decided to stop?'

<Then you would stop and get no reward>

'You wouldn't even try to get me to do it?'

<I don't have any reason to so no, but it's a good thing you decided to see it through>

'You're just unbelievable, Catherine.' The goalkeeper replied before sighing inwardly.

He opened the door to find Emma coming down the stairs already dressed for work.

"Oh, so you're already done outside." She said as she made her way to him.

"Hey, baby, you're looking really fine today." He said before putting his right arm around her waist.

"You've already seen me this morning." She said looking quite amused.

"Yeah, but I was still a bit drowsy, plus that dress looks really nice on you." He said.
