We entered the elevator and started our way down. We didn't exchange any words because there were other people present there as well. Kepa was busy on his phone with a frown on his godly face.

The elevator stopped on the ground floor and we walked out. "Uh, Valerie?" Kepa called. "Yeah?" I asked.

"I am so sorry but I have to cancel this lunch. The coach has called us." He said. He clearly looked angry and sad at the same time. "It's okay! We'll meet next time." I said.

"I'm sorry Valerie I really am" he apologized again.
"It's okay! You go, goalkeeper! Save a goal for me now will you?" I said.

He chuckled at that and said, "One goal reserved for you!" I laughed with him, "Good luck!"

He smiled and left the hospital. I wanted to have lunch with him but, it's okay. I walked back to the elevator and started my way towards the cafeteria.

Soon the day ended for me, Lu had to wait back for some pending work. It was currently 5:10 pm and I had to take Juliet out for a walk. Juliet was Lu's golden retriever.

I drove to her apartment and opened the door with my spare key. As soon as the door opened Juliet jumped on top of me. "You missed me, honey?" I asked and she barked.

I picked her up and closed the door. She was moving in my arms until she was comfortable. I walked towards the kitchen to get some water and kept Juliet down but her forelegs got stuck in my necklace.

"Don't move Juliet! Easy there" I said as she kept moving. I bend down to untangle her hand from the necklace but she moved so fast that the necklace broke.

"No! That was my favorite one Julie" I said. She sat beside me and looked at me innocently. I sighed and said, "Fine! You're forgiven"

"I can never be angry with you," I said as I drank some water. "Show me your nails come on!" I asked. I looked at her nails and they were very long now. "That's why it hurt when you moved," I said.

I cut her nails and we got ready to go out for a walk. We were walking on the pavement when I started thinking about Kepa. His brown eyes, his Spanish accent, his hair...altogether just him.

I snapped out of my thoughts when I got a call from Lu. "Is Juliet okay?" she asked.
"Yes, she is. I cut her nails because you were too busy not to. We are currently heading to the garden" I said.

"Thank you so much, Val," she said. "I know! I'm the bestest best friend. But it's for my girl Juliet! Not you" I said, "yeah yeah okay! I got to go, bye," she said and we hung up.

"She didn't even ask how I was?! She's so bad right Julie?" she barked in return.

She wagged her tail as we walked. She's the cutest! We reached the garden and I pulled out the Captain America Frisbee from her bag which contained the poop scoop stuff.
