I was about to walk over to where some of the girls were like Mapi, Alexia, Leila, Jana and Patri but someone called my name...

I turned around and saw the two people i was trying to avoid, the two people i'm not sure i wanted to see again, the two people who made me feel worthless, the two people who should love me but don't.

"Come here!"
My father demanded. I gulped and walked over slowly.

"What?"
I said nervously as now all that separates us is a single metal barrier.

"You should never have left Chelsea. You were a starter there and here you're a bench warmer"
My mother said.

"Good to know that you still haven't watched any of my games but one, which is this one. It's called a rest, i'm young and need a rest now and then and today i got one. If you actually watched my games you would see i have a pretty big role in the team, and to be honest i don't care if i don't start every game because i'm much happier here than i ever was at Chelsea."

"Why are you even here?"
I asked.

"To see you"
My father lied.

"Bullshit"
I rolled my eyes and then i saw my mum glimpse down to my arm and then look back up angry and i mean angry.

"What the fuck is that!?"
She yelled so loud that when i looked to my side for a split second i saw Mapi and Alexia both looking at me.

"What?"
I asked but my mum grabbed my arm and pulled it up into her and my fathers sight, my mum was gripping onto my arm tightly.

"Get the fuck off of me!"
I said as i pulled my arm out of her grasp only to see bright red marks on it from where she was holding.

"We made it very clear that you will NEVER get a tattoo, didn't we!?"
She's still yelling and my teammates are still looking.
She's right, she told me as did my father that i must never get a tattoo.

"Yeah but i'm an adult now and can do as i wish"

"We're your fucking parents so listen to us!!"
My father said.

"You're barely my parents!"
I said to them for the second time. The last time i said this was over the phone.

"Just like you are barely our daughter"
Ouch.

"Ok"
Is all i could say back.

"You're a disappointment to this family!"
My father screamed.

"Ok"

"We fucking hate you!"
He yelled again.

"Ok"

"We never loved you. NEVER"
My mother screamed and i felt a tear roll down my cheek.

"Ok"

"Fuck off. Have a shit life"
Both of my parents said to me.

I didn't think twice, i walked away. I walked past Mapi and Alexia who said my name but i ignored them and walked down into the locker room where i sat in my corner, put my shirt over my face and broke down silently.

I wasn't alone for long as soon enough the whole team were back in the locker room. Thankfully no one bothered me, well no one did until Mapi came over.

Mapi couched down in-front of me and removed my shirt from my face. Now my watery eyes were looking into her pretty eyes.

"You don't need them"
She whispered as she grabbed hold of both of my hands.

"No, you're right Mapi i don't need them but no parents should say that to their child"

"I completely agree, Emi. You deserve better. You deserved a better childhood and that may have been ruined for you but you're still young and i promise you that here with us, with me, you will never feel as worthless as they make you feel. Alexia, i know is like a mother figure to you and she won't abandon you, she never will because she loves you so much. Patri is like an older sister to you and she thinks you're amazing, you guys hit it off and Patri loves you too. Our teammates love you to bits, the fans love you to bits and so does Jonatan. I promise you that you will NEVER feel that way again. We will never abandon you"
