The story begins as a young man who went by the name Ethan was born raised and lived once upon a time in an opulent mansion scattered among the towering skyscrapers of a bustling city called Metropolis, nestled among the exciting urban jungle. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, not even silver a golden spoon in his mouth due to the fact. Ethan was born into a well to did family. However, beneath the opulence and grandeur, Ethan felt suffocated by the privilege that surrounded him. Ethan lived a life where he got anything he ever wanted and desired.

Despite his privileged upbringing, Ethan was a humble and down - to - earth individual who cherished his family more than anything else. He had 2 younger twin sisters named Emily and Evelyn who where 7 years younger than him, they were his only available family. They were the two things he cherished most in life. He was the only son of one of the wealthiest billionaires on the planet Earth and the wealthiest man in the grand city of Metropolis, but despite his privileged life, he found himself deeply unhappy. From the outside, Ethan's life seemed perfect. He had all the material possessions one could desire, attended prestigious schools from birth, didn't have to partake in an honest day's work ever in his life time and he traveled in extreme luxury ever single time due to the available Jets and Yachts his father had amassed, pretty girls throwing themselves at him, he was always caught wearing the latest designer clothing and everything he owned was branded and where of the biggest fashion icons in the known world. However, beneath this facade of opulence, he felt trapped and suffocated by the expectations placed upon him. His father, Mr. Freeman, had built an empire from scratch and expected Ethan to follow in his footsteps. But Ethan had different dreams. He yearned for a life of purpose and fulfillment, rather than one driven solely by wealth and power. He wanted to bring joy and smiles to people's lives. He wanted to be a beacon of hope. But what could the son of multinational conglomerate do ? Ethan had a peculiar interest for sports and always dreamed of being a pro athlete but his father always said it was a waste of time and effort. Mr. Freeman always said playing sports is the fastest way to an individual's down fall. Every day, Ethan would find solace in wandering the city streets, mingling with ordinary people who were content with simpler lives. He observed their genuine smiles, their shared laughter, and their sense of community. This habits and emotions usually was at its peak whenever the glorious game of football was on. He did reside in Europe where football is said to have been invented. These experiences with the common folk ignited a spark within him, a longing for a life free from the constraints of his family's wealth and the opportunity to dazzle people with his skills and decided to play football and to make his life's mission to win a global trophy in hopes of his father's acknowledgement and to bring joy to the world. Up to this point he had never played football before but he was still very athletic and fit to be fair as he ate good and healthy food, had access to the best fitness equipment and trainers and time to take care of his body. He was 5 foot and 11 inches tall. He decided to take up football, that evening he purchased a pair of football cleats, shin guards and socks and a football to begin with. It was diffcult as he had no previous experience in the sport and since this was something he wanted to achieve by himself, kept his training and ambitions to himself. One fateful day, while exploring a less affluent neighborhood and imagine how he would learn the art of football. He surprisingly stumbled upon a small community center. Curiosity led him inside, and he discovered a group of dedicated volunteers working tirelessly to improve the lives of those less fortunate through the means of proving football equipment and training. Their selflessness and compassion touched his heart in a way he had never experienced before. He decided to join the center as a new recruit. He began to learn the art of football, how it was played, he began to make new friends with them he then found out about their struggles, to them foot ball was a way out of poverty something he he knew nothing about. Some of the kids still envy him due to the fact he was the son of multinational billionaire and the heir to a great fortune. They felt like someone like him should not be seen in the community center. They all assumed that due to his status was the reason the coaches took interest in him. But no Alexander found out he was really special when he played ball as he had the ability to shoot, dribble, pass, cross and control the ball with both feet with out losing power, speed, accuracy and control. He was truly blessed as being two- footed was extremely rare and useful. It took years for others to achieve that skill still not to perfection though. But with his realization of new found talent. He began dreaming of playing football, envisioning himself running across the field, scoring goals, and feeling the rush of victory. After his first official match as a youth player under the community center's banners he performed brilliant and discovered he excel as a midfielder. However, his dreams were met with resistance from his family. Ethan's father, Mr. Freeman, came from a long line of academics and believed that sports were merely a distraction from intellectual pursuits. He had high expectations for their son, hoping he would follow in their footsteps and excel academically and later run his company later in life as that was his gift to him his life's work his greatest achievement. He saw no value in his passion for football and discouraged him from pursuing it. Despite his family's disapproval, Ethan couldn't shake his love for the sport. He would secretly watch games on television, study strategies, and practice his skills whenever he had the chance. Football was his escape, a way for him to express himself and find joy amidst the pressure to conform. A place where he could by his ability not by his wealth and status. Driven by a newfound purpose, Ethan decided to leave his life of luxury behind and dedicate himself to helping others. Ethan yearned for something more meaningful in life. He longed for a sense of independence and adventure that had been absent from his sheltered existence. One fateful evening, as the Freeman family had gathered for dinner in their lavish mansion, that evening was a moment where his father had promised to be the to spend time with his family due to his absence which made Ethan accept that the corporate world wasn't a place for him as it restricted his father for having. Ethan then made a life-changing decision. Unable to bear the suffocating pressure of his father's expectations any longer, he quietly packed a small bag, slipped out of his room, and disappeared into the night not before he left a note to his sister's about the reason for his actions. With nothing but a handful of cash and a determination to find his true purpose in life, Ethan embarked on a journey of self-discovery and to make a name for himself.
