A Huge Win

Are you persuaded enough that there's nobody more special than your best friend? Josh was that guy being liked for his trustworthy character, and although he had a disability, he kept giving his best by far... making everybody proud of him, including his dad! Josh, our goalie, took the position of a center pass, he loved to score a goal, the others including me stood within the half of the defending goal, keeping our eyes on the rolling ball, being fair, never breaking any rules not resorting to violence; our coach watched us closely making sure we avoided any occurrence! Once Josh was in trouble, I came to his rescue: I intentionally bumped into the adversary player, so he couldn't score and shout his victory; seldom I broke any rules, but doing it for Josh wasn't unfair. I helped him win and hearing him laugh made me extremely happy; yes, Josh's win was also mine and our team couldn't agree more! I didn't expect to get caught for cheating and causing harm to the other goalie, I was suspended for breaking the rules and they kept me off the hockey game for the next season; I wasn't truly sorry, because I did a good deed for a friend with a disability, and despite the coach's anger, I chose to take the blame and give Josh a huge win: he was very grateful for it!
