Chapter 12: After work, Neymar and I went to grab some coffee at Starbucks. “Hey El” Neymar said. “Hey!” I said. “This is my girlfriend, Tabitha” he said. The smile dropped off my face “Hi” she said, enthusiastically. “Hi” I said. “Ney can you get me a tea? No sugar, you know I’m on a diet” she ordered. “Sure, El, do you want anything?” he asked. “Um, just a coffee please, thank you” I smiled. “Okay, I’ll be back in a sec” he said. “You, listen. Don’t you dare think about stealing my man. You hear me?” she hissed and pinched my arm. “What do you mean? I don’t even like him that way!” I said confused. “Just stay away from him, ok-ay?” she said, annoyed. “Oh hey baby, did you get my tea?” she said, turning all nice and sweet again. “Yeah, here you go” he said and handed it to her. “Here, Ariel” Neymar smiled and handed me my coffee. “Thanks, here’s the money” I said and handed him some euros. “There’s no need, honestly” he said. “Are you sure?” I asked, and looked at him. “I’m sure” he smiled. I sipped the warm coffee and let the liquid run down my throat. “This is amazing” I sighed. Neymar chuckled. “How’s your tea, babe?” Neymar asked. “Fine, I’ve had better” she said and flipped her hair.
After we had a nice coffee, I went back home. It started to pour down, so I decided to watch a movie with some popcorn with my sister, Natalia. “What shall we watch?” I asked, whilst looking through the DVD’s. “Don’t know, what do we have?” she asked. “How about a horror movie?” I suggested. I looked at her and she was shaking her head. I giggled because I knew she hated horror movies. “What about... The Hunger Games?” I said. “Sure” she said and chewed on her nails. “El! You have a text!” she said. I checked my phone and saw it was from Neymar. ‘Hey! On Saturday, we’re playing against Eibar. Do you want to come?’ it read. ‘What about Tabitha?’ I replied. ‘She said she can’t, she’s busy’. ‘Oh, then sure!’ I replied.
