Opal's Dream

Opal had a dream of becoming a runner. He would practice in his yard by creating his own race tracks and running every single day.
One day, he finally got a chance to participate in a race. He won the race and was really happy about it. That is until it turned out to be a daydream. He felt a bit devastated. While he was walking back towards his shack, he noticed something shiny under the bush. It was a trophy key chain. It gave him a bit of hope that someday, he will participate in a race.
