Standing on the spotlight again, in the front of countless cameras and reporters, Sam felt melancholic, thinking of how fast situations can change.
'These same people were the ones clamoring for my head just a while ago'.
'To think they're all now supporting me again'.
'I guess that's life, you can never predict it'.
Sam took a deep breath before speaking into the microphone.
At first, they organized it like an interview but he took over. To him, this was not an interview at all, rather it was a place for him to have an honest confession after being slandered unjustly for almost a month!
He took a deep breath. "Honestly, I can't explain how I feel". He said in Spanish, flexing his new-found mastery of the language.
"The past few weeks have been difficult for me, definitely the worst period of my football career".
"I never expected an old classmate to slander me in such a manner".
