"Eddie's going in for Johnny as goalkeeper." Jessica reports, as I sit down in my seat beside her. We are at the stadium watching the match. I had just wandered off during half time and have arrived back for the second half.
"Cool." I say.
"Cool?!" Jessica shrieks. "We're doomed!"
"How?" I ask, not really getting what Jessica was stressing about.
"We're going to lose!"
"Eh, why?"
"Because Eddie's the goalie!" Jessica weeps.
"So?" I say.
"He's up to something. He'll sabotage us so that we'll lose, to get us back for exposing him." Jessica says.
"Are you sure about that?" I ask. "Cause it seems like he's just trying to protect Johnny."
"That's what it may seem like. But I bet he's up to something."
"Hi! Is this seat taken?" Someone asks us.
I look up, its Nadia. I flash her a warm smile and say, "Not at all!"
Nadia sits in the seat beside me.
"So what were you guys taking about?"
"That information is none of your business." Jessica mutters.
I glare at her.
"We were just discussing the match. About Eddie going into goals." I say.
"Oh yeah. Bit of a twist, isn't it?" Nadia says.
"You're a twis-" Jessica starts. I kick her.
"Anyway," I say. "Let's hope we do good in the second half."
"Yeah, perhaps we can pull it off." Nadia says.
***
The final whistle blows.
The score ends at 1-0 to us.
"They did it!!" Nadia screams, hugging me.
"Yeah!!" I say.
"Oh sorry..." Nadia says releasing me.
"It's OK." I say.
"Calm down." Jessica says bitterly. "It's just a stupid soccer match."
Nadia and I stand up and make our way down to the field with Jessica trailing behind us.
"This calls for a celebration!" We hear Coach say when we reach the grounds.
