Mackenzie Brooke, a 22 year old woman who's hoping to make her dreams come true; dreams involving soccer. She's got her successful soccer team, FC Barcelona, that she's a part of. Now, she hopes to get better and become a part of the World Cup soone...
The game finally begins after what feels like eternity. I instantly observe and try to see which team appears to be better in the beginning of this game. Which one has better skills, who seems to have better plays and strategies, etc. I also look for good players; players I can possibly learn from in the future. I usually watch a good game to improve my game as well. So far, Brazil has possession of the ball, and they appear to be insanely good. Then, the game becomes more intense and competitive as the Croatia team steps it up. Thus, that fire from Brazil was short lived and dies down as one of the Brazilian defenders score an own goal. I feel horrible for him Be scores the first goal of the World Cup but he scores it on his own team. Then, 20 minutes later, magic happens for the Brazil team. I see a Brazilian player pass the ball to one of his teammates, and the player receives the ball and proceeds to advance up the field. Dang! He's one of the fastest players I've ever seen, I thought to myself. I am instantly impressed by his speed. In the matter of seconds that I've been observing this mystery player, I can tell that he has incredible skill. He dribbles past the players with ease, maneuvering by them as if they were standing still. Next, he approaches the goal and launches the ball. The canon shot sinks into the bottom right corner. Brazil scored. Seconds pass, and I hear the announcer screaming "GOAL" for longer than necessary. Wow, this player is good. I shift my eyes to look at his jersey. Neymar Jr. 10 I will keep this player in mind.. He finally processes that he just put the ball in the net, and he runs away from the goal, yelling in excitement, and went to hug his team. Then I see his face, and my jaw drops...

He is absolutely..beautiful. Without a doubt, I have never seen a more gorgeous man! I've seen some good-looking men, but this guy has got them beat. With his amazing hair, and mesmerizing bright hazel eyes. His face in general is just...wow. First time I see this guy and I'm gawking in awe at. It's safe to say that Neymar made a pretty good first impression on me - and it was only through a screen! Mackenzie, your 22 years old and you're practically drooling over a guy. Get yourself together. This is one player I am definitely going to learn from, because of his skills and his appearance stand out to me. Well, I can't really learn from his looks, I could never look like that.. I just want to learn from him as a soccer player. Learning from someone who looks like that wont be too hard on the eyes as well.. I'm going to find out who this Neymar guy is about, and how he got himself to a world class soccer player..
Brazil won! I'm glad, they seem like a great team - with a lot of passion for the game. If the U.S. do poorly this summer, there's no doubt that I'll root for Brazil. However, that Brazil game isn't the only thing I'm thinking about, it's Neymar who've I've got on my mind as well. I mean, he's so good. He also looks good too, he should be a model.. Shut up, Mackenzie. I get on the internet and type in his name for the sake of my curiosity, and my jaw drops at the endless amount of pictures and information there is about Neymar. With all this knowledge about the soccer star that I'm being given, the Internet was basically asking 'have you been living under a rock?' Wow. How did I not know about him? From what I see on the Internet, Neymar is a professional soccer player. Duh, how else would he have gotten into the World Cup? my subconscious asks, making me feel like an idiot. Also, he's been in the World Cup before, and he is a part of several modeling companies! Despite all this newfound information, I still feel the need to find out more about him. Ok, I'm totally crushing on this soccer player. Then, I think of searching up his instagram. Social media is definitely more of a direct source to people in this generation, so it's guaranteed I'll find out more about him through Instagram or something. I think about the fact that I appear to be a complete stalker right now, but I push the thought aside. I'm sure there's other people in the world who've gone to higher extremities to find out things about someone. I type in his name, and his name the first one to pop up, on the very top, which is to be expected. I now begin to look through his photos. To my misfortune, he speaks Brazilian Portuguese. I only speak English, so I search up what his captions to find out what he says. So, I look through his photos, and carefully translate each caption. I mentally scold Instagram for not having a feature where they translate the captions for you. From what I see in his pictures and comments, he seems to be a genuinely decent guy. He's a Christian, (like me) he really loves his family, and is a good friend to everyone he knows. As I look up from my phone, I look at my clock. 11:30 - a.k.a. bed time. I slide into my pajamas, brush my teeth, and jump into bed. Checking Neymar's instagram again in the morning was the last thing I thought about before I drifted off to sleep.
I woke up, and got dressed and brushed my hair, thinking about what horrible hair I have in the morning. I put on an outfit that makes me look somewhat presentable.

As I tie my hair up, I get a notification on my phone from instagram - Neymar posted something. I unlock my phone to look at his post. I see him sticking his tongue out while a little boy next to him does the same. I have to say, the boy is extremely adorable. The little boy's eyes appeared to resemble Neymar's, which was odd. Both of their eyes are squinted in the same way. He has lighter skin and bleach blonde curly hair. I realize there's a lot to the little boy's physical appearance that looks quite a lot like Neymar's, which was peculiar. He had a caption for this photo as well. Banho com papai . I pull up google translate, and translate his caption. The result.. Shower with daddy. Then I put the 2-and-2 together... What?!?! Neymar has a son?!?!
