That day, Solksjær gathered all players after their training session is over.
"Okay, boys. Listen up. As you know, we will have a pre-season tour this season and this time, we'll go to USA. The team that we will face are Orlando City, New York Redbull, Real Salt Lake, Houston Dynamo and LA Galaxy. We'll go to America in 3 days. So, prepare well. Now, you may dismissed" said Solksjær.
"So, you'll face your old team, mate" said Chris as he and Aaron walked back home.
"Yeah. Not to mention, Orlando City too. I wonder if my sister will come to watch and pray that I will got destroyed there" replied Aaron.
"Things still bad between you and your family?" asked Chris.
"Yeah. But that doesn't matter. If they didn't want anything to do with me, so be it. More reason for me not going back there then" replied Aaron.
"That's harsh" said Chris.
"I don't care" replied Aaron.
"For how long that you won't talk with your family?" asked Chris.
"Until they apologize to me" replied Aaron.
"Never knew that you're this stubborn" said Chris. Aaron just shrugged. Then, they came across Millie and Tooney.
"Aha, there you both are" said Tooney.
"You're looking for us?" asked Chris.
"Of course. Now, let's go and grab something for lunch together" said Mil.
"Sure thing. Let's go, then" replied Aaron.
Later at the diner;
"So, where will you boys be for pre-season?" asked Millie.
"My homeland" replied Aaron.
"Won't you be excited?" asked Tooney.
"Not really. It's not that I didn't return there for years after all. Besides, most fans there thought that I'm a sexist just because I didn't care about the women's players want for equal pay when play for the national team" replied Aaron.
"What about if we did the same?" asked Millie.
"Then, I'll call you a massive dumbass" replied Aaron.
"Why?" asked Tooney.
"Well, you see. Women national team in USA got $24,000,000 per year if you added all the salaries and benefits that they got while men only get $18,000,000 per year and without any benefits. They were offered the same paying structure that we got but they reject it because they want to keep the benefits" replied Aaron.
"Then somehow they go against your opinion?" asked Millie.
"Yup. Not to mention, they said that I don't deserved to say anything since I'm not even 21 years old yet. Let the adult do the talk they said" replied Aaron.
"That's bad. You deserved better" said Tooney.
"That's why I accepted the offer to play here so that I don't have to be involve in this sport political issue" replied Aaron.
"Wise move. So, none of your family contacted you since you're here?" asked Millie
"Nope. I think they saw me as a disgrace nowadays. So, whatever. I just need to focus in my career and create history" replied Aaron.
"That's great. Don't worry. Both men and women team players are friends here. You'll be fine" said Chris.
"That's true. Especially Mil here will be honour to help you anytime, right Mil?" asked Tooney causing Millie to blushed a bit.
