I think a ball is interactive and tells a story because, at rest, on a level plain, it just sits there, and doesn't express too much.

But, when an outside force interacts with the ball, such as in the ball being kicked, numerous expressions of interactivity can be observed, not only from the initial kick, but also from the many actions and reactions from various other outside sources. These other sources can be the ground, a wall, pole, or even another person, just to name a few.
Looking at the first picture of a ball, we can observe the perfect spherical shape of the object. If one were to try and predict a possible path of movement of the object, in the event of an outside source affecting it, the odds of making a correct assumption, are astronomical, to say the least. So even at rest, one can observe a story of incredible possibility inherent to the object.
Examining the second picture, a person is going to attempt to kick the ball towards the goal and try to score a goal, bypassing the other person in the picture. Once the ball is in motion towards the other person, the ball could pass to the left, the right, or even above the other person. The possibility also exists that the ball could hit the other person directly. These are just a few of the many possibilities, that can encompass this interaction, and each one can tell many different stories.
