In the heat of the morning sun, in the quiet park, MB is standing near the tennis court, looking at the man who is asking him to pick up the ball. After MB put all the trash in the trash bin, he thinks about how to give the ball to the man and he thinks “maybe I’m strong enough to throw it”. Then, MB wants to throw the ball into the court since he thinks that he’s good enough. However, he doesn’t and he felt a little bit embarrased and smiles. The boy and his dad felt a little bit angry and MB tries again but he failed again.
