an 80 word story
A chapter in the book Short
Score!
by Bill Schott
Emily kicked the practically pristine soccer ball as hard as she could, and it buzzed into the unguarded goal. Her parents cheered for the four-year-old, who received gleeful pats and praise from her teammates, as well as the pre-schoolers on the other team.
The final quarter found the point-maker once again driving, unopposed, to the rectangular objective. Players parted to allow Emily's play. The opposing team smiled as their two-to-zero win was secured with Emily's second goal -- into their net.
