kids, Alejandro starts to study English when he was 8 years old, on the other
hand Esteban never liked English. When they were growing Alejandro always
was on English classes and Esteban in a soccer team, all the people though
that Esteban was having more fun than Alejandro. Alejandro wanted to be in
the same team that Esteban, but his mom never let him, because she knows
that learn English is more important than play soccer.
