188 My Ideal

"Walker, focus on the game. The team needs you, and I need you too. As for other things, leave them to the coach."

Walker jogged home all the way, and the coach's words were always echoing in his mind, like a repeater, and continued to play them over and over again. Then his steps became more and more firm and more powerful. A powerful force burst out from his heart, allowing him to continue running forward.

The coach trusts him so much and even entrusts him with important tasks. So how can he disappoint the coach?

Once, he thought that his career was the end of his senior year. For his mother, sister, and family responsibilities, he could not have any unrealistic dreams, and hoped to enter the professional league - because he knew that he was not talented enough, he should find a job after graduating from college, and perhaps he became an ordinary worker in countless factories in Manhattan, shouldering his responsibilities for life.

He has a family that needs to be guarded. In this family, there is no role as a father, and Jimmy is another...so he must become the man of this family, he must bear the weight of the family with his shoulders, he has no other choice, he cannot leave his mother and Coretta alone.

But now, he can't help setting a goal again. He needs to work harder! He needs to be more diligent! He needs to be more determined! He must not let down the coach's trust! Maybe... Maybe there are other possibilities in the future? Even if it is only one in ten thousand hope, isn't this the dream?

——A illusion that is unreachable and wonderful.

Thinking of this, Walker's whole body was full of strength, the stronger the stronger the more he was, and he ran towards home with great strides.

Hulala!

Walker rushed directly to the door, like a gust of wind, which scared Coretta, who was doing homework at the dining table, and complained in a frightening manner, "Can't you take care of the lady in the family? You should know that I am at a very sensitive and fragile age now. You need to respect my feelings. The first thing is to open the door gently, and the second thing is to put your dirty clothes in... Put me down, Reggie!"

Coretta was unable to finish his words, Walker strided forward, picked up the little lady, and then began to circle quickly.

"Reggie! I hate you! Reggie! I'm going to vomit! Let me down! Damn Reggie!"

Coretta tried to struggle to get rid of Walker's clamping, but obviously her struggle was just a drizzle for Walker, and then she gave up on her struggle with no desire.

Walker turned around for a few times, then said excitedly, "Coretta, do you know? The coach said he needs me! The team needs me!"

He couldn't wait to share his joy and happiness with Coretta; "Haha, the coach said, those things are his responsibility, I don't need to worry, I just need to play well, because the team needs me, do you understand? The team needs me!"

The same words are repeated and repeated. This is the first time in Walker's life that someone is willing to shelter him from the wind and rain, and it is also the first time that someone is willing to believe him sincerely. A simple sentence means too much for Walker.

"Really? Really!" Walker finally stopped. Coretta struggled to return to the ground, his voice gradually became louder without any reservation, showing joy, "I knew you could do it! I knew! Reggie, does this mean that you might be able to participate in the draft?"

Walker didn't say anything - he didn't dare to say it, just like a birthday wish. Once he said it, it might not be realized, but the excitement in his eyes revealed his expectations, careful expectations, as if he didn't dare to describe even his dreams, because they were used to the shattered hopes and were afraid of being hurt again, just like waiting for his father who would never come back.

"Ah!" Coretta continued to jump in place and expressed his joy with screams, "Reggie! Reggie! You must enter the nFL! You must become a professional player! Do you know! Your dream will come true! Reggie, you will be able to escape here!"

Their dreams... are not just about life, but about professional players, but about fleeing Manhattan's West End, and escaping the nightmare that drags their ankles like a quagmire. The professional football player of the rugby is the most likely way for Walker to realize his dream, or even the only way.

If he fails, he may have to find a factory job in the local area and try his best to build a place to shelter his mother and Coretta, but Coretta has no way to leave here. They may be imprisoned here forever, with nowhere to escape and helplessness.

Coretta's eyes were completely bright, "Reggie! I'm going to tell mom! Ahhhh!"

Walker tried to stop Coretta because it was still an out of reach dream - his talent and ability were indeed a gap. He understood, he understood, and he didn't want them to hold too high hopes, and they might fall even worse by then; but he couldn't bear to stop Coretta.

She was so happy and so happy, even if it was just a tiny wisp of hope.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the door of the house was knocked open hard, and a vicious voice exploded, "Shut up! It's so noisy! Can't you be quiet forever?"

It's Jimmy.

Coretta's voice was cut off, and she looked at Jimmy timidly, at a loss.

Walker stood up, "Jimmy, you shouldn't speak to Coretta like this..."

"Shut up! I don't need you to tell me how to do it!" Jimmy ignored Walker and walked straight to his room. In less than thirty seconds, he came out with an extra pistol in his hand.

"God! Jimmy, what are you going to do?" Walker tried to dissuade Jimmy, "I will not wipe your ass again if I have something to do this time!"

"Get out! Then stay away from me!" Jimmy shook the pistol in her hand, pressing Walker up, almost pressing her face against her face, and then gritted her teeth, "You just live in that ivory tower, pretending that nothing has happened, pretending that your dreams have meaning, and don't interfere with my life."

After saying that, Jimmy hit Walker hard, then waved his pistol and left.

Walker and Correta looked at each other, unsure whether they should continue to stop Jimmy. Walker couldn't help but take two steps forward, but was called by Correta, "Reggie, don't waste time for Jimmy. This is the first time you have truly had the opportunity to realize your dream. Don't waste it, don't ruin your life for Jimmy."

"But..." Walker still couldn't ignore Jimmy and die.

"Reggie, don't let Coach Archie down." Coretta said again, "He is a good person, he is the only person who can trust you and see you, don't let him down."

Walker looked at Coretta, then looked at Jimmy who was leaving, and finally fell to the ground, with a hint of confusion in his painful expression.

Can his dream really come true?
