Flying high

                 This story take place in Africa. In small town of Kenya, in a small village called Thika. A little baby named Emanuel was born in this village. Emanuel was a very good baby, very talented. He always cheered people with his beautiful charming smile. Emanuel was also very popular with the teachers at school. He was a very clever boy for his age. He knows how to read or how to write very good. His mum was very proud of him. She yearned for Emanuel to become a great and famous scientist. But she didn't know that Emanuel's life journey would be completely different, until one day in a meadow next to their home.
               They were simply celebrating Emanuel's tenth birthday. Emanuel was laying on the ground and talking with his family. Suddenly a friend of Emanuel, Jacob bumped into Emanuel.  Jacob was a very good football player and he asked Emanuel if he wanted to play football with him and other guys from the village. Emanuel was very surprised and dreaded that Jacob called exactly him. It was very unusual because, nobody wanted to play with him. They were telling him that he is a nerd and his boots are tattered and cheap. He was the center of bullying because of his intelligence. He never got chance to show what kind of football spirit is in him.  But Emanuel didn't hold back and jumped and started playing with big joy. Emanuel wasn't really confident in what he was doing, but somehow he liked the game and he had become more addicted to football. He got speed, technique, creativity and brain to play football. His legs were running like never before. Emanuel  started to be more and more attached to football and his mother noticed. There are not many opportunities to improve in something in Africa, because of the bad conditions and generally the environment was very drab. But Emanuel's family tried to make suitable conditions for theirs talented member of family. Emanuel finally registered to Football club of Thika. His life took an opposite direction. His life goal was uncovered. The rest of Emanuel's puberty and some years after, he was playing on position of forward for Thika Football club. Emanuel was the most valuable player on the field. He was shooting goals like it was nothing, when the defense needed help he was there, his passes and tricks were elaborated, it was like a feast for eyes, no wonder a famous European club was interested in Emanuel.
             Of course he accepted the offering. His life was and is an example to for other African kids that are losing faith and living in poor conditions, but as you can see they are super talented and they have the right to show how high they can fly.

The end.
