HER PHONE RANG ONCE AGAIN, but marla paid no notice to it as she laid on her couch in her drivers room. her manager jack and performance coach sitting in with her as they discussed the plans for the rest of the season. she hummed every so often to make sure they knew she was paying attention but it was clear to them that her mind was somewhere else. the season had drained the girl and she was now counting down the days till summer break when she could ignore everyone and everything.
she stretched her tired limbs, her shoulder pain still lingering from her crash the previous week. she had been cleared by the medical team that she was fit to race but it had knocked her confidence. rumours had began to emerge once again of the nature of marla and daniel's relationship as well as how secure her seat was for next season. silly season was upon them in a matter of months and it was beginning to cause marla some anxiety.
"you've got your workout and meal plan for the break, your schedule is pretty empty right now but you've got some stuff for GQ to film and some other things but i'll keep you updated," jack hummed, reading from his phone. thankfully jack was good at his job and had managed to keep the press away from any sort of rumours about her relationships. marla just nodded, muttering a thank you. "i'm gonna get some air," she spoke.
she walked around the pit lane aimlessly, unsure of what she was actually doing, she just couldn't shake off how she had been feeling. her dad had finished his last bit of filming, chatting away to his camera man when he noticed his daughter. his brows furrowed in concern, quickly moving towards her.
"marla! you okay sweetie?" he asked with a smile. without saying a word, she threw herself towards him wrapping her arms around his shoulders. it took him a second to realise but he was quick to reciprocate the embrace, his hand running through her thick hair. "what's wrong?" he hummed, pulling away for a second.
marla didn't know what to say, she felt her eyes beginning to well up, unable to stop the hot tears from rolling down her cheeks. she hid her face in her dad's chest embarrassed that she was crying in the pit lane. mark quickly moved them away from the prying eyes of the media and other teams.
in the back of the red bull garage, marla's dad kept his arm around her shoulders, "marla what's going on?" he asked quietly. "i don't know... i just don't think i can do it," she stuttered trying to keep her cries quiet. her dad looked down in concern, rubbing her arm soothingly.
"sweetheart, listen to me. i'm so proud of what you've achieved," he began, marla wiping her tears away quickly. "this is just another bump in the road, i know that you can do it, you've always been able to and look where we are yeah? you made it," he hummed, an encouraging smile on her dad's face.
marla couldn't reply, if she did she'd just cry again so instead she just threw her arms around his neck, muttering a thank you. they held each other for a few more seconds before marla let go, giving herself a moment to pull herself together.
mark gently squeezed daughter's shoulder, "i'll be here when you finish okay," marla nodded, wiping the dampness around her eyes away. it was getting close to the start of the race meaning she had to get changed and look over the strategy for the race once again. "okay, i've got to go... thanks dad," she muttered, mustering up the best smile she could.
"love you kiddo," he hummed, leaving her alone in the busy red bull garage.
