Luna, Jobe and their parents strolled through the resort towards the breakfast area, they couldn't help but notice the lively atmosphere around them. To Luna's surprise, their company wasn't limited to just the familiar faces of their wife, parents and children. Instead, the resort was abuzz with the presence of several other teenagers, their laughter and chatter adding a youthful vibrancy to the surroundings

Entering the bustling breakfast area, Luna's eyes scanned the room, taking in the familiar faces of fellow footballers and their families. Amidst the crowd, she spotted an unexpected sight: Jude and her brother Jadon, sitting together at a nearby table, engrossed in conversation.

Surprised and delighted, Luna quickened her pace, eager to join them. "Jadon! Jude! " she exclaimed, a smile spreading across her face as she approached their table. "What a surprise to see you here! I thought you'd have practice."

Jadon grinned, rising from his seat to greet her with a warm hug. "Hey, guys! We thought we'd pop by for breakfast and catch up," he explained, his enthusiasm evident in his voice.

Luna returned the hug, feeling a rush of warmth at the sight of her brother and his friend. "I'm so glad you did," she replied, her voice filled with genuine happiness. "I've missed you guys."

Jadon nodded in agreement, offering Luna a warm smile. "I've missed you too, sis," he admitted, his eyes reflecting genuine affection. "But It's been only two days" He laughed.

Settling into their seats, Luna felt a sense of comfort wash over her as they began to chat and reminisce about old times. Despite the hectic schedule of the tournament, she found solace in the familiar presence of her family and friends, grateful for the unexpected opportunity to reconnect amidst the chaos.

once Jude grabbed his breakfast from the buffet he sat next to his mom on the table and announced that they had the day off and that all of the players will go play football with their families. Luna couldn't help but find the irony amusing. "So, on your day off, you're still playing football? Sounds like a blast," she quipped, her tone laced with sarcasm.

Jude chuckled at Luna's remark, a playful glint in his eye. "Yeah, I know, right?" he replied with a grin. "But hey, when you love the game as much as we do, even a day off is an opportunity to have some fun on the field."

Luna rolled her eyes in mock exasperation, but there was a hint of amusement in her expression. "Well, I guess I can't argue with that," she conceded, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "Just don't get too competitive out there, okay? We don't want any injuries ruining the Euros"

Jude laughed, nodding in agreement. "Glad to know you care more about Euros than me." He said dramatically bringing his hand to his chest. "Don't worry, I'll make sure everyone plays nice," he assured her, his tone light-hearted. "Besides, it's all about having fun and spending time together as the old days."

With a playful grin, Luna nodded, feeling a sense of excitement building within her. "Well, in that case, count me in," she declared, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "I'm a really talented player!"

As Luna and Jude exchanged banter about the day's plans, Jobe and Jadon joined in with their plates and sat down. Jobe asked what was going on and Mark explained to him the situation.

"Football? Sounds like a blast!" Jobe exclaimed, his eyes lighting up with excitement. "I'm ready to show off my skills on the field."

Jadon chuckled, clapping Jobe on the back. "Careful, mate, don't want to pull a hamstring," he teased, a playful smirk on his face.

Luna couldn't help but laugh at their banter, feeling a sense of camaraderie among them. "Yeah, Jobe, we wouldn't want you getting injured before next season," she teased, nudging him playfully.
