Charles and Zara was texting each other all the twelve days they were apart! Charles asked her address in Dubai to send Zara a gift
The courier let the box outside of her door, Zara just arrived home from her work, Friday afternoon and she was happy that tomorrow she's leaving for Baku to Charles
As she watched the box a smile appeared in her face, it was a Scuderia Ferrari box, she knelt grabbed it and walk into her apartment
After closing the big wooden door with her leg she grabbed a knife to open the boxy that had duct tape around, as the Emirati girl opened she watched a Scuderia Ferrari hat with the number 16 and Charles' signature, the box also had her two passes with fortunately her ID photo she sent to Charles one pass for the paddocks and one for Ferrari
Zara grabbed her phone from her Dior Large bag and she called Charles hoping that he didn't have Free Practice
He answered
"Hello ma chérie I'm sorry can you be quick?" Charles asked
"Yeah you have the second free practice in an hour! Good Luck and thank you for your gift! The passes were enough!" Zara said quickly
"I wanted to make you realise that you stuck on me by be secretly my biggest fan! I'm sorry I've to go I am outside the meeting room!" Charles replied quickly as well
"Yes of course! Bye and he safe!" Zara hanged up and she walked in her bedroom, she placed her passes on the Marc Jacobs Tote bag she'll take in Baku so she won't forget them and she had a quick shower
She changed into black leggings shorts with just her red Victoria's Secret Bra, June came and Dubai is really hot
Zara made to herself a smoothie with Greek Yogurt and strawberries and she sat on the couch to enjoy Charles on FP2
With the end of the practice an hour later he was the second fastest with Sergio Perez on the first place and Lewis Hamilton on the third place

The airport was 25 minutes away from her home and she took a taxi to her way there, she was in Dubai Airport at 9 o' clock and she needed to hurry up a bit, she only had one pink YSL suitcase, as she oases the security checkpoint she sat to her gate waiting for the boarding of her flight
At 09.10 the announcement was the passengers with the Business Class tickets go to boarding, Zara show to the woman there her passport and her boarding pass from her iPhone and then she walked in her seat
Baku was almost 2 hours away and at 12 she was there, the Emirati girl took a taxi to her hotel to let her suitcase and then she was on the track, she almost ran to Ferrari to watch Charles
The time was 1 and half and FP3 starts in one and half hour
As she watched Charles she ran to his hug and he returned the hug
"Hello ma chérie" Charles said smiling "Nice coconut perfume!"
"Hello Charlie!" Zara broke the hug "It's Victoria's Secret body mist!"
"Smells nice!" Charles looked that today was wearing his hat with a Ferrari T-Shirt and skinny jean shorts with sneakers "Look beautiful! Again!"
"Thank you Charlie!" Zara replied smiling "You look beautiful with the race suit as well!"
"Stop I'll blush!" The Monegasque replied laughing "You can go and wait in my garage!"
"I go to meet Kelly in the Paddock Club!" Zara said smiling "We decided watch our boys in Fp3 and qualifying from there but tomorrow I am all yours to your garage!"
"Good! Go and have fun!" Charles winked at her and Zara walked to the Paddock Club, Kelly told her that she would bring her daughter from her ex boyfriend
As she arrived there the Brazilian model was waiting for her with her daughter
"Hey!" Kelly said and she had a hug with Zara
"Hey you okay?" Zara asked smiling
"Yes thanks! How the flight was?" Kelly asked
"Good!" Zara looked at Kelly's daughter that she was sitting on a chair "I am Zara"
"I am P" The little girl said a bit shy
"She such a sweetheart!" Zara sat and Kelly sat opposite her
The girls had fun in the Paddock Club watching the FP3 and the Qualifying session from there, Checo won the Pole Position and Charles was third with Max being second
At night Zara was in her hotel room alone watching some job she had to do, her door knocked it was Charles
"Hey!" Zara said smiling "Come in!"
"Thanks!" Charles walked in and Zara closed the door behind "Sorry for coming like that but I couldn't sleep and I wanted some company!"
"No problem! Let's talk then!" Zara and Charles sat on the bed
"I am nervous for tomorrow again!" Charles said smiling
"Why's that?" Zara asked closing her MacBook
"I will be first in the championship if I'll end in front of Max!" Charles sighed "And I am starting behind of him! Baku is a street circuit and the overtakes are difficult!"
"Look Ferrari doesn't have the best strategy in F1! But you are an amazing driver Charles! You have natural talent! Remember that!" Zara touched his hand "Go tomorrow out there and show that Dutch who is the winner of the 2022 F1 Championship!"

Zara was completely nervous watching the race, Charles was doing amazing out there but he couldn't overtake Max
In one try for overtake Charles' car was in the barriers, Zara looked down disappointed
"I'm sorry guys" Charles said on the team radio completely sad and moving away the steering wheel
Charles came back to his garage five minutes later and he walked immediately to his team principal, Binotto was trying to make him clear that he did a mistake and it's not that bad and he'll be better on the next race in Canada
The Monegasque walked in his room and Zara decided walk after him, she knocked on the door
"Who's this?" Charles asked madly
Zara opened the door a bit
"Oh you are ma chérie! Come in you are the only person I want to see" Zara walked in closing the door behind "Come here"
Charles took Zara sit on his lap
"It's okay we all do mistakes! At least you tried to overtake him!" Zara whispered placing her head to his
"You don't understand... now I need more time to be first again" Charles sighed "I am so sorry"
"Don't be sorry!" Zara looked at him "Why are you sorry?"
"You came from Dubai just to watch me and I screw my own race" Charles said disappointed
"Mistakes can happen! I don't care for your DNF! You are an amazing driver Charlie! Keep that!"
