Veronica was on a club soccer team that practiced every Wednesday afternoon after school. She liked playing soccer, but her passion was dancing. She asked her parents if she could take dance classes instead, but they were too expensive. She was disappointed, but she understood. Veronica was in charge of bringing the bag of soccer balls to practice each Wednesday because her house was closest to the park. She did not mind; she only had to walk one block more to the park. On her way, she always passed by Ms. Gibson’s dance school, where she occasionally stopped to watch the dancers. A few times, one of the teachers invited her in to join them for free. She knew if she went into the class, her soccer teammates would not have any balls for practice, but she just could not pass up the opportunity to do what she loved. After the third time she failed to deliver the soccer balls, her coach called and asked her to give the bag of balls to Molly so she could be in charge of them. Veronica apologized and told her coach the truth about where she had been and why she chose to attend the dance classes. The coach was disappointed, but he appreciated her honesty. Veronica promised to give the ball bag to Molly, and she followed through with this promise the following day.
