Berlin was beautiful.

Since childhood, Isagi had always dreamed of seeing soccer outside of Japan, especially admiring Noel Noa deeply. Seeing his son's passion, his parents decided to spend their one-month vacation in Germany, giving Isagi the opportunity to experience foreign culture and even attend a match of his favorite player.

It was a hot summer day in early June. Isagi was walking down the street with an ice cream in his hand and a big smile on his face. There was a playground near the house that his parents had rented for the month, and Isagi had become quite familiar with it, although he still had some difficulty communicating due to his limited knowledge of German.

There weren't many children around, as it was the peak of the heat, and only a few boys and girls were playing in the sand or swinging on the swings with their parents.

But Isagi's attention was drawn to something else.

A soccer ball lying alone in the middle of a small children's soccer field behind the playground. Moved by his childish curiosity and impulsiveness, Isagi didn't hesitate to run towards the ball, kicking it into the goal and smiling proudly.

However, he was immediately called out. Isagi stopped, realizing that he had touched something that belonged to someone else, and turned around awkwardly, holding his hands up and dropping his ice cream, as he looked at the unfamiliar boy in front of him, who appeared to be the owner of the ball.

“Oh, I'm sorry! Is this your ball? I didn't want to!!”

He exclaimed excitedly - after all, his mother often told him not to touch other people's things...

He ran to the goals and kicked the ball to its owner, still feeling curious and interested - after all, it seemed like the boy in front of him was the only one on the playground who played soccer like him - so maybe they could be friends? Isagi was feeling lonely playing alone.

“It's a soccer ball, you know? I have a similar one, but I forgot it... Do you like playing soccer too?”

He asked with undisguised interest, approaching the boy with a friendly smile. Maybe he's finally lucky enough to find someone to spend his month in Germany with!
