Last week, I finally managed to ask my parents to buy me a new football shirt for the school match. I was very excited and wore it to the training before the match, but I wished I hadn’t done that! My new shirt was torn(破损的)after the training and only a tailor(裁缝)could help!
As I walked home worriedly, I saw a shop sign:ALL KINDS OF REPAIRS AND SERVICES! I went inside at once. I looked around the shop and saw broken toys, broken chairs...I wondered if I was in the wrong place. Just at that moment, a man with white hair came up to me and said cheerfully, “welcome! This is a repair shop and I can repair everything!”
“But...what I need is a tailor to deal with my football shirt.”
“You’ve come to the right place. I’ve been waiting a long, long time to repair a football shirt.”
“Really?” I held the shirt in my hands.
To my surprise, he took the shirt from me, put on glasses and sat down on the sofa with my shirt in his hands.“I guess you are a striker(前锋), “he smiled. How could he know? The man gave me a wink(眼色)and said calmly, “See the picture on the wall? That was me 30 years ago.”
I couldn’t believe my eyes! He was Orhan, the famous footballer who was on the city team years ago! I told him that I was playing for the school team and I had been his fan for years. I told him everything, my dream, my practice and even my dad’s words. “Dad think I should be an engineer or a doctor” I lowered my head.
“Follow your dream, choose a job that you love and carry on.” The man smiled at me with his blue eyes. He patted(轻拍)on my shoulder and put the shirt which he had repaired in my bag.
Today I have become a footballer and I still keep the shirt in my closet.
