Prologue
The final whistle pierced the air as her weary feet landed softly on the ground. The game was over. She couldn't think of anything, painting hardly in her burgundy shirt wet of sweat. She could feel her heart pound to the beat of the crowd's cheers and applause. Then realisation hit her as she heard her teammates' cry of joy. They had won, she thought as her lips spread into a grin. The team gathered. Holding each other they shouted together. Then they stood in line in front of the spectators and bowed in thanks. A tall boy in a white and turquoise uniform was in the front. He leaned over the railing, grinning at her, his eyes playful and proud. He held his hand down at her. With a laugh she stepped towards him and jumped, her fist bumping against his.
This was one of the joyful moments she remembered from when she was in the high school volleyball club. That time was filled with tiring training sessions and games, some they had won, others they had lost. She remembered the outstanding friendship between her teammates and her. But in addition to that, there were the first heart tingles during the warm spring days and also the bitter disappointments of broken promises.
