ama swatted away flies and pollen while she sat on a blanket in her garden. she was certain that no matter how heavily pregnant she was, she was going to get a tan.
jadon was in paris, manchester united had reached the champions league final and although jadon was reluctant to leave his heavily pregnant girlfriend she urged him to go, as it was a rare opportunity.
in the meantime ama's mum and sister had moved up to manchester for a while until the baby was born, to help ama.
tolani came outside with two bottles of cold water in her hand. ama sat up and stretched out for one but tolani stepped back.
"ay, what's the you doing, they're both for me"
"lani..."
"im joking, here"
"wow, your belly is really big, the baby could literally come out any second"
"i know, but i don't want it to right now, i want jadon to be here" ama said rubbing her stomach.
"are you going to watch the final tonight?"
"yeah, jadon told me not to watch it before i give birth in the living room but im going to watch it anyway"
"well, im only trained in first aid the most i can do is put a plaster on your nani if it rips"
"don't say i didn't warn you"
"i'll be fine"
"have you even got a name for the baby?"
"yes actually, jordan if it's a boy, and if it's a girl rhiana"
"you don't know if it's a girl or a boy?"
"yeah, why do you think the room is mostly white and all the clothes are every colour but pink and blue"
"i want it to be a surprise"
...
20:00, paris, champions league final, manchester united v bayern munich
ama and tolani were both sat in the living room. ama was as nervous, and jadon was in the starting lineup making her even more nervous.
"i can literally see your heart coming out of your chest are you sure you should be watching?" tolani asked.
"im fine, im sure when the whistle blows i'll calm down"
ama was right, nothing really happened in the first half, so she wasn't too fussed.
second half came and united were awarded a penalty conceded by süle and scored by ronaldo, giving them the lead. but 15 minutes later robert lewandowski scored a free kick letting bayern equalise. ama closed her eyes from that point and hoped a miracle would happen.
twenty minutes passed and still nothing from a manchester united perspective.
90+3 - 1 minute to go.
"varane with a clearance, poor touch from pavard, oh and fernandes has snatched it. united on the counter attack." martin tyler said.
ama opened her eyes and looked at the tv.
"fernandes squares it to jadon sancho, will he shoot or will he pass, he drives into the box, ronaldo is free, rashford it free what will he do?"
"shoot!" ama shouted.
"sancho shoots...AND HE SCORES!!!"
