-Honey, why are you crying?" asked Mason's mother, when she saw you arrive with Marcus, who was also crying,
-I'll take the little one, you stay with her so she calms down and we can go home," said Mason's father.
-Now tell me, what's wrong, honey?
-I feel like such an awful mother now, it's my fault Marcus couldn't be with Mason for a while and we had to leave immediately.
-Why do you say that," asked Jaz, Mason's sister.
-I went downstairs with Marcus so he could see mason after the game, and I told him to be quiet so I could talk to mason first, to see if he would react well, since we couldn't get close, I preferred to talk first to see how Marcus would behave when he was in front of him, but as soon as he saw him he wanted to go to him and I didn't know what to do to calm him down, because he started crying and moving in my arms to go to him and I had no choice but to go back upstairs because mason told me that it hurt him to see Marcus like that and not being able to do anything about it- you said while trying to calm your emotions a little bit.
-Oh honey," said Mason's mother as she hugged you, "don't feel like a bad mother, on the contrary, you put the little one's feelings first, you want to see how he reacted and then make the decisions, you probably feel bad for not letting them talk for a moment, but you took your precautions concerning the situation, It's hard for everyone right now to see Mason and not be able to give him a hug or a kiss, so don't feel bad because Marcus couldn't and remember honey that your feelings are also valid, don't suppress them because you are in public, because I know that maybe it hurts you more than Marcus not being able to hug my son, he will forget it after a few hours, but you will remember it.

And then came the day of the final at Wembley, you hadn't been to a match since the Round of 16, Marcus had fallen ill with bronchitis and you didn't want to go to a match until he was 100% recovered, because you didn't plan to leave him with a babysitter. For safety's sake, you would watch the game from the box along with William, Kate and George.
-But look who we have here," said William as he took Marcus from your arms,-Hi sweetie, how are you?" asked Kate, as she hugged you.
-Well, although last week was a bit difficult, having Marcus sick and not having Mason's help was difficult.-I can imagine if it's hard for us when one of the kids gets sick. There are two of us plus the nanny, I don't want to imagine how it was for you if you were alone," said Kate.
-It's things that happen, anyway, the important thing is that Marcus is better now and we will see daddy play, right my love? you said taking Marcus in your arms, who said daddy while moving his arms.-Don't tell me he hasn't taken his first steps yet," said William.
-The truth is no, the furthest he has come is to stand up on his own, but from there to taking a step, I think we are still a bit far away, not that we are pushing him either, everything will happen in its time.
-You can tell he's growing up in the royal family, George took his first steps at 14 months, Charlotte at 13 and Louis at 15, it's in the family that they take a long time to walk," said Kate.
-I know, but tell Mason that, all he wants is for Marcus to walk so he can teach him to play ball," you said with a laugh

England gave everything they could in the 120 minutes of the match, but it still wasn't enough, the defeat by penalties against Italy had left them in shock, Marcus didn't understand why from one moment to the next, the stadium was calmer, nor did he understand the worried look on the princess's face.
-mommy, daddy's sad?
-Just a little bit but don't worry, in a little while we'll go to him, ok? you said to Marcus to which he just nodded.
-We will be leaving now, give our greetings to Mason and please be careful when you go downstairs- William said.
-Go home safely, a bodyguard will come down with us so there is nothing to worry about," you said, "baby, say goodbye to aunt kate, uncle William and George.
-Bye," said Marcus as he waved his little hand.
Once the medal ceremony was over and there were fewer people in the stadium, you decided it was a good time to go down to the pitch as some of the players' families were already coming down.
Mommy, nana," said Marcus as you were coming down
.-yes baby, it's Nana, do you want to go to Nana's before you go to Daddy's?" you replied as soon as you spotted Debby and Tony, who were about to go down to the pitch.
-yes, mommy, nana-
-But look who we have here," said Debby when she saw Marcus.
-Nana," said the little boy as he stretched out his arms, to which Debby grabbed him by the arms.
-He barely saw you from above, the only thing he said was nana, Mason took a background role in Marcus' head for a few minutes- you said laughing as Marcus placed his little hands on Debby's cheeks.
-I think we should go downstairs now, Mason is looking this way.
