My whole Life I never knew my mother, with her dying when I was only three years old there really isn't much to remember about her. My dad took me every Sunday after church with the Pulisic family to my mothers grave.

He would tell me stories about her and show me pictures, anything that would help me remember her and keep her alive in my mind

But how was I supposed to remember someone I never got the chance to know

He tried his best, and after he passed i honored him in remembering both of them.

"What's going on with you, how's Monaco treating you?"devyn asks as she sit down in my hotel room after putting Avery to sleep for a nap before dinner

"Ive been there a year so I feel like I'm doing pretty well. It's a lot easier than I expected honestly" I answer pulling out my laptop to get work done

"I hope your not doing work right now" she starts as I throw my hands up in defense

"My stupid company just made essentially a partnership with a formula one team, I have to work. I've never seen so much paperwork, and I have to supervise everything that going on which is extremely difficult in a different continent" i huff

"You push yourself to hard, sure your the director of marketing but your off right now, and your actually co director so you can leg her take responsibility" she lectures as i sigh

"I know, I just don't want to fall behind. That's the one thing I cannot do"

"Just take a break, Austin is with Avery right now. So we can both take break, let's go out for like 20 minutes dinner isn't for another hour so we can just go walk or something" she suggests and stands up

"Okay let me grab my wallet" I say and stand up from my bed and close my laptop returning it to its space on the desk

"Seriously Mags?" Devyn asks pointing at the stack of papers on my desk

"As I said, I never encountered as much paperwork as this" I sigh as she chuckles and we exit

After the conclusion of the match against Iran The United States were moving on and Kelley and Mark were moving to the hospital to figure out what happened to Christian

On twitter you could see all the memes a mile away, people saying he was hit in the balls and making jokes about the situation

I saw a few that I had to bite my lip not to laugh at

After the match I congratulated Weston and Gio before saying goodbye to Devyn and Austin as Marc and Kelley had already left

I planned to go back to the hotel to finish up some work, I had some contracts and agreement papers I needed to review and sign

Then I had a call with the board and their lawyers later tonight

As I walked through the doors of my hotel room I wanted nothing more than to just shut down for the rest of the day

But I knew I needed to work so I went straight to the desk and began working on my computer sorting through documents for about an hour and a half before there was a knock on my door

I sighed closing my computer and getting up swiftly moving to the door opening it revealing Christian holding a bag of ice

"Hello?" I ask as he walks in past me
