Smooth Operator

Two

The match ended with a draw and we all were a bit sad about it

I was sitting alone in the plane for the way back to Manchester when Julian and Jack sat next to me

"Not you again" I moved away my AirPods "What happened?"

"Will you go to the Grand Prix?" Julian asked smiling

"The next race is in Vegas the next week!" I smiled "And I need to train you!"

"We're good boys and fortunately we're playing with Fulham so you don't need to worry about us" Jack winked at me

"Come on! You haven't take any day off and you need to" Julian said

"What I should do there? If you don't know Carlos has a girlfriend!" I said madly

"They broke up" Jack said and I looked at him madly "What? We did our research!"

"Still no" I giggled "Carlos and I just no!"

"We didn't say that! You can go there and just support him!" Julian said "And don't worry about us!"

"So I need to talk to Pep about the off work and also with Carlos about the tickets and also booked flight tickets" I smiled

Julian and Jack had a high five

I giggled

When I got back in Manchester Julian and Jack came to my house

I got a call from my father

"Oh it's mister Figo" Julian said

"You both shut up" I said and I picked my phone "Hi dad"

"Hello my dear daughter! How are you?"

"Good! Just arrived back home!" I answered

"I will be in Manchester in an hour, we need to talk about something" I felt a strange sense in my stomach

"I'll wait for you in my house" I replied "Have a nice flight"

"I will!" My dad hanged up and I looked at the boys

"My dad is coming to Manchester" I said

They both stood up

"So we're leaving" Julian said

"Be safe" Jack winked at me

I cleaned the house and then I sat to wait for my dad, I don't even what has happened and he wants us to talk

As he arrived he placed his stuff in the bedroom he'll stay for the night and we sat on the sofa to have a conversation with a cup of coffee

"So you know that Carlos Sainz Senior and I are really good friends" My dad said

"Yeah I know it" I said

"And you know that you and Carlos have just a few months difference, Carlos was born in September of 1994 and you were born in November of 1994" My dad said

"Yeah I know that! What has happened?" I asked confused

"When you were born Carlos and I had a b agreement, he has a son I have a daughter they could marry" my dad said

I laughed

"Carlos and I?" I asked laughing

My dad wasn't laughing so I stopped laughing as well

"You're not joking" I said confused

"No! You and Carlos will get married" My dad said

"No?" I said madly

"Think about it! You'll have the popularity you need to have! We all will have the same popularity! It'll be fantastic!" My dad said

"Dad that was a stupid agreement that has happened 29 years ago and I'm not going to follow it!" I said madly "Carlos and I are friends"

"Come on Anastasia!" My dad sighed "Do it for me! You are 29 and still no married! You can marry Carlos and you'll live an awesome life"

"Dad think what are you talking about! Carlos is like my brother and you ask me to marry him!" I replied "Absolutely no! I can't do this"

"I'm sure that you'll love the life Carlos will give you! You will move in Madrid and you can work for Real Madrid" My dad smiled "I will take care of it"

"No! Absolutely no! I'm happy in Manchester with my life and I'm not gonna ruin it for a stupid agreement!" My tone was a bit loud

Carlos

"We need to talk" my dad said as I sat on the Sofa of the house

"Okay?" I said "What happened?"

"You know that you and Anastasia have just two months apart" My dad said

"Yeah I know it" I nodded

"Luis and I when Anastasia was born we made an agreement, that you two will get married" My dad announced

I looked at him

"Does she want that?" I asked

"Luis said that she does not accept it but if you'll accept it maybe I could watch my son happy with a wife like Anastasia" My dad smiled softly

"Okay" I agreed "Tell her to come in Las Vegas so we can talk face to face"

"Me? You tell her! She'll be your wife" my dad said

"I'll tell her, right" I smiled
