A "Match"

Throughout the day, Daisy avoided Edward at all costs. She reasoned that it would be better to remain alone than to be teased. She gathered her bags and made her way out of the building toward the bus stop. A girl from her class caught her as she was headed toward her stop.

Daisy, where are you going? Our class is at the playground, where section 2 and our class are playing football. She took Daisy's hand and said, "Let's go," while gazing affectionately in her direction.

Daisy, on the other hand, was unable to refuse her offer due to her politeness and the attractive way her classmate approached her.

She went to the school playground while grinning at her classmate and was met there by other students, among them "Edward Leo," who was sitting in a corner remote from the other students. Girls were observing him while whispering in his ear.

Suspiciously

Edward, though, doesn't appear to care about it. The girl who drove Daisy here sat next to her. And then considered saying hello,

Daisy attempted to break the awkward quiet by saying, "Um, hey, I'm Daisy," but the blonde in front of her chuckled and said, "Oh, I know you Daisy, we are classmates, myself Anna David." Daisy blushed a little, massaged the back of her head, and nodded to Anna.

Since you are here alone, you probably won't recognise me or anyone else, but that is totally fine.

As Daisy confidently smiled at Anna and murmured, "Thanks Anna, it was a relief," Anna continued.

Both girls laughed together, attracting the attention of the other students present, including him. He appears fascinated by Daisy's smile and the slight blush that is spreading across her face, which gives him the chills.

Then comes the moment when their eyes lock, causing both of them to grow agitated and turn to the side to slow their heartbeats.

Daisy's point of view: "God!!!! He was looking at me, and I was laughing uncontrollably. He would now have another target to pick on me. Why was it me? Oh no, my heart is about to burst. Please!!"

Edward's point of view: "God!!! She will consider me to be creepy or something similar who will find a new way to mock her. Why is it me? Thank you, God. Please!!"

"Goal!!"

When Section 1 scored the game's first goal, which had only been underway for about 10 minutes, all of the students' attention was once again focused on the game. However, Daisy caught Edward's attention as she considered ideas and wanted to apologise to him.

Edward made the decision to put on headphones and search YouTube and Google for instructions. (Please notice that Edward is here posing as the author's soul.)

Daisy, who was throwing Edward strange freak looks as he ignored the match and used his phone, was now completely engrossed in the action, which was likely to become equally competitive on both sides. She appeared to receive a text message, but she was occupied with the game at the time and was about to be struck in the face by a ball.

Daisy covered her face with her arms and closed her eyes, but the ball never struck her. She could only make out the gasps of everyone. She gently opened her eyes, lowering her arms as she did so. The one and only Edward Leo, who was holding the ball and keeping an eye on Daisy to make sure she was alright, caught her attention.

Edward received a simple nod from her and, after acknowledging her, returned the ball to the teammates while yelling,

"Play responsibly, as there are other people around." and then they departed from there as everyone oohed and ahhed over Daisy, who was preoccupied with spotting Edward's fading figure that turned around once he reached the school gate, and Daisy was positive she saw a smile on his face.
