Like any other boys in his school, Mahim hated being sick. He had been sneezing and coughing all afternoon, waiting to get better soon. My team is not going to make it to the finals without me, Mahim worried as he thought about the upcoming soccer game.
Late in the afternoon, Mahim felt his forehead and found that the fever had gone down. I can still make it to the practice, he decided as he looked at the clock. Mahim ignored the shivers and the sweat and got out from under the blanket to get dressed. He still had an hour before his parents returned home from work.
As Mahim lifted his legs to make it to the door, he found them heavy and weak. I've been kicking all my life; I should be able to score a goal, he thought. Mahim imagined kicking the ball to the goal post and ended up hitting the door.
"Oh, sorry!" Saunak, Mahim's friend said, sounding embarrassed. "The door was unlocked, and we didn't know you were coming out!"
Mahim was surprised to see his soccer team at his front door.
"We need tips from you for tomorrow," Saunak said with a smile. "And, I will get you an icepack for your foot."
