Cairo's POV

"I'm okay Koda." I whisper as my service dog licks my face.

Stupid seizures.

"I promise I'm okay." I say.

Koda stops licking my face then she looks me over.

Once Koda is sure I'm okay, she nuzzles her head into my neck.

After I feel like normal, Koda and I get off the bed, leave our room, and head down to the team doctor's room.

"Hey Cairo." The team doctor says.

"Hi." I say.

"What can I do for you?"

"I had a seizure." I say. "And you said you always wanted to check on me after my seizures."

"Come on in." The doctor says so Koda and I head inside the room.

Once inside, the team doctor checks on me and make's sure I'm okay.

"My hearts all good?" I ask as I play with my nose ring after my check up.

"Yep." The doctor says. "You're EKG looks great."

"Good." I say.

"Cairo I'd tell you if anything was wrong." The doctor says.

"Alright." I say then I let out a deep breath. "I'll see you down stairs."

"See ya." The doctor says then Koda and I leave and head back to our room.

Once in our room I gather my suit bag, my shoe bag, and my custom 1 of 1 Off-White bag.

"You ready to go?" I ask as I put my phone and wallet in my pocket.

Koda yips so I grab her leash then the two of us leave our room and head downstairs to the bus.

Once on the bus, I hang up my suit in the row before Koda and I's row then I sit down next to Koda in our row.

A few minutes later the players get on the bus then we head to MAPFRE Stadium.

On the way to the stadium I look down at my line-up notes to make sure everything is correct.

21-Emma Harris
2-Jasmine Spencer
7-Abby Dahlkemper
4-Becky Sauerbrunn(C)
19-Crystal Dunn
8-Julie Johnston
24-Kristie Mewis
3-Sam Mewis
23-Christen Press
10-Carli Lloyd
17-Tobin Heath

After I'm sure everything is correct, I put my notes up then relax for the rest of the drive.

Eventually we get to the stadium so I gather my things as we pull into the parking area.

Once the bus stops, I grab my suit then Koda and I get off the bus and head to the locker room

When we get to the locker room, Koda and I head to the managers office then I put my stuff down before we head outside to check the pitch.

As Koda and I are checking out the pitch, I see a familiar face in the crowd so I walk over to her

"Hey Anna." I say and playfully curtsy

"Hey Cairo." Christen's Alpha says with a smile.

"How ya been?" I ask.

"Great." Anna says. "I'm about to see my oldest make her debut for her country then in a few days I'll see my twins make their debut for their country."

"Madeline and Tatiana are debuting?" I ask.

"They are." Anna says with a huge smile.

"Oh I just remembered there is something I wanted to tell you."
