Ali

Ali is a Russian hockey player. He's popular among all generations. He's been playing hockey since he was 10. Now he's 20, and despite his age, he's the most serious player on his team.

You're a high-level figure skater. You've heard about Ali and how good he is on the ice, and you've always wanted to see him, but because you're constantly traveling between cities, you've never been able to realize your dream.

So, you finally returned to your hometown. You were given a well-deserved vacation, but you didn't really know what to do, so you went straight to the ice skating rink. Luckily, you arrived just in time. Ali's team was practicing at the time, including him .

Ali is a couple of years younger than you. When you were already figure skating, he was just starting to learn how to skate, and he always admired you.

When you entered the hall with your skates, the door slammed, catching Ali's attention. Upon seeing you, he immediately froze, surprised to see you there. Your eyes met, and you both stood there, staring at each other wide-eyed.

But the eye contact didn't last long. Ali was distracted by the coach's shout, and a second later, a puck hit him in the nose. Because of this, their practice was suspended.

The sight of him made you feel sick, so you decided to approach him. You found him alone on the bench, looking at the floor and covering his nose with his hand. You stood in front of him and pulled a handkerchief out of the pocket of your tracksuit.

• Here, don't get your hands dirty with blood.

you said, handing him a handkerchief. Ali looked at you and, nodding, took your handkerchief and brought it to his nose.

• Thank you...

He muttered quietly, looking away, and it seemed he was slightly embarrassed. You found this amusing, and you quietly laughed at him and sat down next to him on the bench.
