I woke up to a few messages from unknown.

Unknown

Unknown: Can you meet now ?!
Sofia ?!

Me: No, I have Portugal team breakfast
We can meet after ?

Unknown: Sofia, it's now or never.

Fuck, I comb my fingers through my hair and text my dad.

Papi <3

Me: Something came up, I can't make breakfast, sorry :(

I also text Hugo while I get ready.

Hugo

Me: NOW

Hugo: What ?

Me: They want to meet now

Hugo: What about team breakfast ?

Me: You can go, but I HAVE to go meet them.

I exit those messages and finish getting ready. I then text unknown back.

Unknown

Me: Fine.
I'll be there soon.

"Nessa, go to the team breakfast, or with Gio, I'm heading out now," I say waking her up.

"Where you going ?" She asks in a sleepy voice.

"To meet unknown," I say.

"What ?! Now ?!" She says getting up.

"Yeah, they changed the time, said it's now or never, I have to go," I say grabbing my keys from the nightstand.

"Good luck," she says as I walk out.

"Sofia," I hear João call out to me as I exit the room, but I ignore him and continue walking. I walk towards the elevator and step into it joining a hooded figure.

"Close the doors," they say as João is quickly approaching.

"Hugo ?" I ask as the doors begin to close.

"I told you I was coming with," he says.

We ride the elevator down and as the doors open I hear familiar voices.

"Is your father in his suite ?" Ramos asks me as I begin approaching him.

"He should be yeah," I smile hugging  him.

"Are you not joining us for breakfast ?" Kaká asks me.

"Uh no, I'm going with Hugo," I say pointing to him. I hug Kaká as well and Hugo introduces himself to the pair.

Out of the corner of my eye I see Modrić coming in and "is that Marcelo ?" I ask.

"Yeah," Sergio says looking back to make sure it is Marcelo.

"It's not a Portugal team breakfast, it's a Real Madrid one," I say to no one in particular. I quickly take my phone out of my pocket to text my dad.

Papi <3

Me: You didn't tell me this was a Real Madrid reunion >:(

Papi: Change your plans

Me: I really wish I could but I can't :(
Let's do this again tomorrow please

Papi: I'll talk to them
