My only purpose was to become the star on our football team. That meant beating out Miller King, who was the (good) player in our school. On my (thirteen) birthday this year, I promised I would make it come true.
Football season started in September and all summer long I worked out. I (carry) my football everywhere for practice. Just before September, Miller was struck a car and lost his right arm. I went to see him after he came back from hospital. He looked very pale, but he didn't cry.
That season, I broke all of Miller's (record) while he watched the home games from the bench. We went 10:11 I was named "Most Valuable Player", but I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame (责备) for Miller's accident.
One afternoon, I was crossing the field to go home and (see) Miller in trouble climbing over a fence which wasn't difficult to climb if you had both arms. I'm sure I was the last person in the world he wanted to accept help from. But even that challenge he accepted. I helped him move slowly over the fence. When we were (final) safe on the other side, he said to me, "You know. I didn't tell you this during the season, but you did fine job. Thank you for doing the job for me."
His words freed (解脱) me from (I) bad dreams. I thought to myself how even without an arm he was more of a leader. Damaged but not defeated, he was still ahead of me. I was right to have respected him. From that day on, I grew bigger and a little more real.
