“Let’s play soccer in the living room! I’ll be the goal keeper and you’ll be the striker,” I suggested. It was a mundane morning as our parents had went out to run errands. We were stuck at home with nothing to do, as such I had suggested that we play soccer to my brother, John. As we kicked the soccer ball along the smooth floors of the living room we squealed with joy for something new to do at home. Before long, we had played for an hour, and decide to switch sides. Swiftly I put my leg on the bouncy ball. Quickly, I kicked the ball towards my brother. We could not bear to look as the ball flew towards the million dollar ceramic vase. Soon, as the ball crashed against the vase, we screamed in horror.
