Sidelines Stories

Jenika Burns has spent her life with one goal: to outplay Nikki Walsh, her fierce teammate and rival. In the final game of the season, she's finally on top-until a devastating injury shatters her dreams of dominating the field and attending her last summer soccer camp with her best friend, Harley. Struggling to make sense of a summer without soccer, Jenika feels lost, trapped in a world she barely recognizes. Enter Keagan, her best friend's charming and annoyingly persistent brother. Determined to lift her spirits, Keagan makes it his personal mission to show Jenika that life exists beyond the soccer pitch. Just as she begins to rediscover joy in unexpected adventures, his cousin-a mysterious and magnetic addition to their summer crew-turns her world upside down. As the days unfold, Jenika finds herself drawn into a whirlwind of laughter, late-night talks, and stolen glances that make her wonder if romance might be the best game she's ever played. But with summer slipping away and rehabilitation underway, she will have to decide if she's ready to step off the sidelines and into a future she never imagined. Filled with heart, humor, and a touch of first love, Sidelined is a story about discovering who you are when the game you've always loved isn't everything. Perfect for fans of sporty romance and coming-of-age tales, this is a summer to remember.

As I sit in the room, I ask myself. Why can't I be in a group like the others? To be in a conversation? I ask myself as I sit in the room.

I glared at him. "Well excuse me for being human." I sighed. "I just want to be like her too. I want to be able to be brave and beautiful and smart. I don't want to be on the sidelines anymore and watch everyone else take action and change the world and get everything they want." "Then don't." I glanced at him. "What do you mean?" "Don't stay on the sidelines. Be brave and act, just like you want." * * * Kaya Rivers considers herself to be the sideliner. The main character's best friend.

Dear diary, I am Moira Leigh Lowery. Nobody knows me except my best friends and my enemy. I am the girl at the sidelines. No one knows me and I would like to keep it that way. Nobody else knows me. Or so I think nobody else knows me. ____________________________________ But she thought wrong. Moira is the girl nobody gives a second glance. In fact, nobody even cares to look at her, to study her, to know her. Nobody even gives a darn damn about her. She likes to keep it that way. But she was wrong. Somebody did know her. Scratch that. Somebody hot did know her. And she hates it. ------------------------------ CONTAINS BOTH GRAMMATICAL AND TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS. SO PLEASE EXCUSE THOSE MY FRIENDS.

It's hard to tell someone else's story without telling your own. That story was Alice Variet's and Daniel Preten's story. The story of the typical bad boy and good girl. The bad boy interested in the good girl and the bad boy eventually winning her. But this is not her story. Well it is. Because I'm telling her story. But I'm also telling mine. Being black, wearing glasses and having the image of a good girl means that being these two's best friends is no easy feat, especially when everything has changed when Alice came back. People change. Secrets are made. Memories are made. Bad and good. Memories are remembered. Good and bad. But someway I will find the courage to break my silence and to say my farewell. After all it is hard to tell someone else's story without telling your own. But who I am? Read and you will see. You will find me by the sidelines.
