Football, the most popular sport in the world, it has crossed the barrier of history with its own charm, constantly enriching itself and perfecting itself, this sport is not only a physical confrontation, but also a competition of wisdom, which emphasizes individual ability and highlights the cohesion of the team.

Carlos went to the meeting alone, he expanded the range of running from the midfield to all areas, no one passed the ball to him, he grabbed it himself, no one helped him resist, he broke it by himself, those people on the yellow team, he didn't care!

The half-hour stalemate between the red and yellow sides ended with Carlos scoring a goal.

The sky in Barcelona was surprisingly blue, the sky was cloudless, Carlos's blonde hair was shining hot, jumping with dazzling light, his sword eyebrows were raised, his eyes were disdainful and cold, and there was a smile on his delicate face, but the raised middle finger made it impossible for all the yellow team players to appreciate the blonde youngster.

Teammates in the same uniform, declare to them that he would be better off without you!

Enraged, the Yellow Team rushed forward and said, "Take your finger back!" ”

"Little bastard, don't think we won't beat you!"

"Go back to your orphanage, don't come to La Masia! You are not welcome at U14! ”

“……”

Carlos didn't respond to them, and at the shouting, he reached out and shook it in front of the Yellow team player, then flipped his middle finger over and pointed at the ground.

The 10 players of the yellow team were completely enraged, and they swung their fists and surrounded Carlos in a rage.

The referee whistled incessantly, and the shrill sound pierced the sky.

The referee's yellow card was trampled on the ground and no one paid attention to him.

Benajez rushed into the arena, and Su Qingjia also stepped forward, she was very worried, she was afraid that Carlos would be injured.

"What the fuck are you doing! Ah, what are you doing one by one! Benajes shouted angrily, "You guys are on your own team, are you going to fight?" Did La Macia teach you to fight? Yes! ”

"Is this the match you're going to show me? It's! Do you have a brain problem if you don't pass the ball to your teammates? Wouldn't it be cool to isolate him! Benajes pulled the red card out of the referee's pocket.

"As for you, Carlos, I'll admit that it's great that you broke the situation alone, but I'm not satisfied! Now, immediately, immediately, go to the locker room and face the wall! The furious coach threw the red card in Carlos' face with extreme force.

"Now I declare, this game is over, a draw. Carlos, I reject your application, you are not suitable for U14! Benajes turned and walked to the locker room, "Now, everyone, except Carlos. Meet here! ”

Carlos's face was flung with red marks, he bit his chin tightly, his hands clenched into fists could clearly see the white joints, his head was raised before, but now he was slightly lowered, he was desperately suppressing his anger.

Su Qingjia stepped forward, she heard his heavy breathing, it was the first time she had seen Carlos lose his temper like this, "Carlos, are you okay?" ”

Carlos raised his head when he heard this, and Su Qingjia saw that his eyes were red, and his eyes were a rich gray, as if dark clouds were covering the clear blue sky before a heavy rain hit.

"Carlos, listen to me, don't be angry, don't worry." Su Qingjia was frightened by his appearance, she was afraid that Carlos would get out of control, Su Qingjia began to look for a topic, "You look great, Carlos, I am very happy to see your goal today, really, you amazed me." Oh yes, I'm sure you'll be a superstar in a short time, Carlos, and I'll be proud of you, you ......"

Carlos closed his eyes, his expression became calm, his eyelashes trembled almost only when he exhaled, the red marks on his face became deeper and deeper under the sun, he bent down to pick up the red card on the ground, and said to Su Qingjia: "I'm fine, don't worry, you go back first, I may not be able to send you today, I have to go to the wall." ”

His voice was flat, not at all like his usual one. He was calmly somewhat terrifying.

Su Qingjia wanted to say something, but Carlos walked to the locker room without looking back this time.

With concern, Su Qingjia returned home.

Along the way, her mind was full of Carlos's gray eyes, full of coldness.

When she returned, Ming Ling told her, Director Lexach called her, and Carlos asked her not to come to La Masia for the next few days, and that he should concentrate on training.

Su Qingjia stayed at home for three days, her worries got worse a little bit, and when she woke up on Wednesday morning, she sat in bed for a long time, and she decided to ask for leave from school and go to La Masia.

For the past few nights, she has been dreaming that it is raining heavily in Barcelona like never before, the sky is overcast, every street is full of water, Las Ramblas is filled with silt again, and she walks on the road with an umbrella without seeing a single bright color.

Carlos was waiting for her at the bus stop in front of the orphanage, the water had reached his neck, his gray eyes were open, full of despair.

And each time, just as she was about to touch him, the rain had already overwhelmed him, and she could only watch him move his lips to herself in the water, which was to say, "Adios" (goodbye).

Su Qingjia was awakened by this sentence every time. In the Barcelona of her dreams, there was no bright sunshine, only a curtain of water. The whole city is quiet and noisy, and the rain is overwhelming.

She had to go see Carlos.

Mingling is an accommodating mother, and she can also see that Su Qingjia has been fidgeting for Carlos's affairs in the past few days, and looking at her daughter's cute little face, she has lost a lot of weight. She asked for leave for Su Qingjia and told her that she could go home later.

When he went to La Masia, Su Qingjia tried hard to search for Carlos on the court, but he walked the playground three or four times, and he didn't see the shining blond hair.

"You're looking for a little golden retriever, right?" Oleg asked, not as lively as he used to be, he was a little silent, "He hasn't been training for four days, every day he goes out early, and then he hears that he comes back late, and no one knows where he went." ”

Oleg kicked the ball slightly, "I greeted him yesterday, and he ignored me, the whole person, the whole person......" He thought for a moment and searched for the vocabulary, "yes, it's like the walking dead, as if it has no soul." ”

"And what do the coaches say?" When Su Qingjia heard this, his heart sank even more.

Oleg's expression was a little distressed, and he stomped his feet on the spot: "Alas, let's be honest with you, the coaches seem to be discussing with the supervisor to suspend the focus on training Carlos, and they ......" glanced at Su Qingjia's face, "They may give up on Carlos." Ah, I don't know the specific reason, alas, if you can find the little golden retriever, remember to persuade him more, he only listens to you. ”

Su Qingjia was stunned and thanked Oleg.

How so? Su Qingjia's heart seemed to be drowned by the heavy rain in his dream with Carlos.

Su Qingjia barely calmed down, she had to calm down and find the real reason: "Big brother, do you know where Coach Benajess is?" ”

"Yes, you and I can come." Oleg didn't expect her to ask where the coach was, he was a little anxious, "Hey, if you see the coach at that time, you are not allowed to cry, and also, don't say that I took you there, I will be trained very badly." ”

"Okay, I'm not going to do anything, I'm just going to smell Carlos. Really, I promise. Su Qingjia said.

The enthusiastic and naïve Oleg sent Su Qingjia outside Benajes's office: "It's here, it's here, you can knock on the door and go in." I trained. He added, "You remember, don't say I sent you here, remember?" Be careful that I'll beat your boyfriend next time. ”

Su Qingjia threw him a look, "Well, I remember." ”

Oleg received the look and ran away, thinking all the way, what does this little sister mean, why can't she understand it inexplicably? Like her boyfriend, there is a lot of drama in her eyes.

Su Qingjia knocked on the door, and after getting a reply, she tidied up her clothes, pushed the door open and went in.

"Hello Coach Benajes, I'm Bella. I don't know if you remember me. ”

Of course, Benajes was impressed by this little girl who asked him to celebrate Carlos' birthday, and he had seen it at the match a few days ago, so he nodded and said, "I remember you, you are Carlos's friend." Have a seat. Want something to drink? Water, milk or juice? ”

Su Qingjia waved his hand and looked at him: "You don't need it, thank you, sir." I think you know what I'm here for, so I'll get straight to the point, and I'd like to know what you think of Carlos. ”

Benajes sighed, his tone was a little regretful: "Bella, Carlos is indeed very talented, great, if you focus on training, he will be a new generation of superstars in Barcelona......"

"Then why don't you focus on cultivating." Su Qingjia interrupted him.

"It was a decision at the top, the result of discussions among all of us."

"Can your discussion decide Carlos' future, his life?" Su Qingjia asked, her voice was a little sharp, and anger poured out of her chest uncontrollably.

Benajez pulled out a copy of the document from the cabinet, "You also saw this confrontation, he can't integrate into the group at all, which is a fatal injury for a professional athlete who does team sports, you know?" We've been keeping a close eye on him for more than a year, he's been a loner since he came to La Masia, he's never said a word to anyone about anything else, and he doesn't have any friends but you. He handed the text to Su Qingjia, "Take a look at this report." ”

This is a psychological test report, Su Qingjia jumped to the end and saw the diagnosis given by a professional doctor-

Confirmed diagnosis of low-risk depression that makes it difficult to integrate into normal life. Guided therapy.

The owner of this report is Carlos.

She watched it several times, and finally closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "So, that's why you gave up on Carlos, right?" Just because of this game, you think that he must not be able to get along with the players, right? ”

"Bella, La Masia has a lot to think about, we ......"

"Coach Beneras, I'm wondering right now and no."

"Sorry, yes." Benajez looked at this stubborn little girl, his daughter was just as stubborn as she was, and he wanted to comfort her, but the truth is sometimes so cruel, "When we first knew that he was mentally ill, we were optimistic, and we hoped that life in La Masia would change him, but unfortunately, we failed. ”

Su Qingjia returned the report to the coach, "Thank you, sir, however, I would like to know, apart from you, is there anyone else who knows the news of Carlos' illness?" ”

"You're your first. And the last one, I promise. Benajeth said.

This coach is actually very old, he has dedicated most of his life to football, in the academy, he has seen many talents, some have succeeded, some have fallen, so many people have dreams, but they are destined not to fly.

Carlos is not the first and will not be the last.
