The young people sitting opposite me were not speaking English. I assumed they were tourists like me and asked them if they were enjoying their vacation in the US. But I was completely wrong. It turned out that…
…they were brothers and they actually were Americans. They lived very far out in the country side on a big farm.
We began to talk about our lives and dreams. Their stories were a bit crazy and also very fascinating to hear. The first of the two brothers to tell his life story was the older brother named Greg. Greg is 23 years old and he had lost two fingers on his right hand. The story about his missing fingers was the first thing he told me about. Greg told me from the start of, how it actually broke his dream, because Greg was the leading quarterback on the football team of his high school. Greg’s team was the number 1 in the state and he had the state record of the most touchdowns throws made in one season. Greg had a bright future, and was going to the NFL draft the year after the season.
