Nina P.O.V

"Is that your schedule?" Lottie asked referring to the paper in my hand. I nodded giving it to her "Oh, you have sports now" she informed.

"Yeah, do you know where is the gym?" I asked looking ahead of the hallway.

"Yeah yeah, I do. You go that way till the end of this hallway, take your left and go down the stairs then take a left then right then another right and it's the big door by the end of the hallway you will find when you take another left--"

She stopped as I looked at her blankly "Come on, walk with me. I will walk you there." She said and we started walking.

"So what sports are you playing?" She asked and I instantly smiled at the mention.

"Football," I said tilting my head to the side and looking at her "Who is the girls' football team coach here?" I asked.

She looked back at me frowning "You mean football cheerleading team?" She asked stopping in her tracks.

"No no, do I look like a cheerleader to you?" I said bluntly.

"Then? Wait, do you really play football?" She asked in disbelief, I sighed loudly.

"Yes, I'm signing in for the girls' football team here and I'm aiming to be the captain. Who is the football team captain here?" I asked occasionally.

"Um oh," She stopped clearing her throat "yes um, actually" I crossed my arms across my chest waiting for her to continue.

"There is no girls' football team."

He words came through me like a truck filled with disbelief, anger and frustration.

"What?" The only thing I was able to say as my hands fell to my sides. Is she for real now? Wait is this real?

"But, do you really play football?"
She asked again, and I was too dumbstruck to answer. I pushed my hands into my bag searching for my phone.

Did dad know about this?!

As soon as I found it I fished it out and called my dad, the line kept on beeping with no answer.

I hung up almost scratching my screen, did I careless?

"You can't use phone in the hallway! That's against the rules!" Lottie warned and I scoffed before looking at her.

"I don't go by the rules," I retorted "I make my own rules."

I saw her take a step back with an awestruck expression on her face "Where is the principal's office here?" I asked impatience evident in my voice.

"There," she pointed to the door meters away from where we stood. I was about to walk there, when she told me she had to leave for class. I was too busy and angry to reply.

I dropped my bag on the floor sitting in the chair in front of the principal his name shining in bold on the rectangular shaped board.

I waited for him a few seconds to acknowledge my presence, but I am not much of a patient person.
I stumbled my feet so he would look at me. Mr. Maximos lowered his specs, "May I help you young lady?" He asked

"Yes you may," I gritted through my teeth. "Your school is illegal! " I shouted

"Beg your pardon! " his British accent so thick you would mistake it for a cow.

"I said, your school is illegal every school should have a boy's football team and a girl's football team, WHICH IS NONEXISTENT IN THIS SO CALLED SCHOOL " I shouted my patience long gone.

"Ms. Statham, you must be the new transfer student " He said delighted,

"Yeah... so?"

"Well Ms. Statham you must be unaware we cut down the girls team two years ago," he said with such cold calmness making me fum with angere.

"Two years? Two years girls didn't play? Are you people foucking out of your minds? "

"Ms. Statham please watch your language, "

I swallowed my spit, "Why did you cut down the team?" I asked

"For some.... reasons, "

"Seriously?" I plotted my eyebrow feeling the stupidness rise.

"Ms. Stetham if you will excuse me I have some work to do, we may continue this later," Maximos said putting his specks back on.

I groaned getting up, closing the door behind me "Where is the foucking Football coach? " I asked the kid in front of me.

He choked stuttering, I had to contain myself from smacking his face in the door. "Where is he dumpo?" I asked one more time

"Guide me, " I said kicking him.

"F...follow m..me" he said

"I know I am supposed to follow you dumbo," he nodded walking a head of me.

"Here, but j... just be careful he is angry now," he said, I nodded about to walk in.

"And, MAN UP!!" I told him.

His eyes widened, nodding his head repeatedly and running off seconds later.

I shook my head, damn what a pussy.

I entered the gym looking for him, the team was already there working out.

I spotted him a couple of meters away, scolding, "Hallo! you must be the football coach, " I said, he looked at me from head to toe.

"Keep your feet together, Cordon" he shouted.

"I am Nina Statham, a transfer student, "

"I am the football coach if you didn't notice, Mrs. Natalie Goldberg the cheerleaders coach is in the cafeteria now."

"I don't care where that women is. I want to play on your team," as soon as I said those words it felt like time had stopped and everyone was listening.

Silence followed by laughter, "You want to be on the boy's team?" A guy asked

"I thought this was the girls team, chicken leg" I said annoyed
"What did you just call me?"

"Chicken leg, wings, you name it did you see the way you were doing push ups. My 6 year old sister does it better than you," I said, I didn't have a sister but he doesn't need to know that.

"We don't allow girls on the team," I rolled my eyes at the other kid. I remember him he is guy I slayed this morning.

I smiled mischievously, "I am sure I am more of a man than you will ever be," I said

" Feisty, I like competition, " he said. I flipped him off nonchalantly. "Babe I will" he said.

There was no point of speaking to these suckers so I just left straight to the house I moved in, the place I will never call home.

Feeling like a brick was thrown on me. Its very heavy and I can't hold it. I left my team, my girls, my school, my dream to one day play on Wembely stadium, one day I dreamed it with my best friends.

Is it all gone? did it evaporate into thin air? But I promised Iris I would keep moving, it's the truth that's what's keeping me holding on because it hurts like hell to let go.
