Dreams of Becoming a Footballer

Thanks.

They're cold.

They're always cold.

You're not from here.

I was. Long time ago.

My dad says I practice too much.

Does he?

He says I'll wear out my shoes and he can't buy more.

Are you okay?

Why?

You've got a face like you lost... something big?

The last big thing.

Was it your fault?

I've been trying to answer that for a while.

Then it wasn't. You'd know by now if it was.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

What do you want to be?

Famous footballer.

Why?

I want to buy two houses. My dad works nights.

My sisters left school to work. They all stopped so I could keep going.

So I'm going to take them out. All of them. Out of here.

What did you want to be?

Exactly that.

Did you get it?

Cristiano!

Hey! You never said.

Did you make it? Did you become what you wanted to be?
