Before Daphne had even finished speaking, the referee whistled, signaling the end of the first half of the competition. As expected, Joseph’s team had the lead.
When it was the second half, things suddenly came to a halt. A long time passed, but the whistle signaling
commencement remained obsolete.
Daphne was somewhat anxious. “What’s going on? What happened?”
A girl beside her explained. “It seems a player on team five has to leave, so they’re short a player.”

Joseph puffed out his chest and lifted his chin. “Indeed.”
Josiah’s voice dropped low. “It seems like they’re short of a player on the other team, and it looks like they won’t be able to get anyone else for a while. How about… I give it a try?”
Joseph had no recollection of the man. But when he heard that, his competitive spirit blazed, “Sure. But do you have a jersey and sneakers? Competing in dress shoes definitely won’t be as convenient as sneakers, and even if I win, it wouldn’t be a fair victory.”
Josiah smiled. “That’s if you win
Upon seeing that, everyone else had no objections either. They merely waited for the break to end before the commencement of the second half of the competition.
