Author's Pov

A radiant day up front with a lively atmosphere that filling up the entire residence of Bougival. Alana is already back to Paris and she would be staying at the big mansion for a while per request of the house owner, Neymar Jr. The two beings became closer ever since a night at Bondy where they steal their first kiss of each other. Nothing, but good memories has been living inside their minds directly after they first stepped back in Paris.

"I will go to Parc de Princes this afternoon, do you want to come?" Neymar louden his voice to speak at Alana, who was busy in the kitchen doing her things. Neymar's house kitchen is practically Alana's favorite place now.

"For a match?" Alana shouts back her reply. "Does Kylian will be there?"

"Yes, a match. Kylian will be in the starting eleven with Leo!"

"I'm coming!"

Alana gave out her freshly baked Éclair for the other workers at house to eat-she loves it when other people enjoying her foods-and preparing the last two large pieces for Ali and Neymar at the living room. Alana first thought it will be awkward for the three of them to gather around in one place after all those feelings confessions, but they make it easy for her to never bringing out that topic again unless she brought it up first. Just a presence of Alana Clarissa Marquez in the room is enough for them.

"I forgot how it feels like to watch a football match. It's been a while since the last time i watch Kylian play at the stadium." Alana took a sit across from Neymar, next to Ali. He instantly raise one of his eyebrows at her, but she reply it with a big grins on her face. Alana loves teasing him.

"If a friend or family of the team member watches the match, do they automatically get a VIP pass or you should still purchase a ticket?" Ali asks Alana and Neymar, because he never watch any sport game before.

"It depends, actually. For home games, they will be giving out some free tickets at tribunes to the staffs and athletes for their friends to support our team. But, we also had like this special sections with VIP pass privileges for our family to watch." Neymar answered.

"I remember that one time where Hakimi's wife used to think i'm Kylian's girlfriend!" Alana recalls her past memory with a tickling laughs following her after. "She almost invited me to the WAGs groupchat."

"I mean... you looks nothing like him, so it makes sense. Anyway, there's a WAGs groupchat?" Neymar just found out about that. "Did they invite everyone's girlfriend or is it only for the official wives? If they invite the girlfriends, what if the couple's broke up? Do they just remove them from the groupchat or what?"

"Why are you so nosy about this? You thought Bruna M and Bruna B will be there?" Alana can't stop holding her laughter when she looked at Neymar's expression that looks panicked and annoyed at the same time. She starts to imagine the scenario if the two Brunas were really there inside the groupchat and when they broke up, they will be like 'it's been fun while it lasts guys, i'll see you guys again if we get back together<3' before they left the groupchat. It must be hilarious as fuck, Alana cackled.

Ali joins in, "your list must be long, man."

"Shut up." Neymar rolls his eyes. "Ali, you should come to the match with us!" Alana suggests.

"Nah, thanks. I'll let you two have your moment, besides i have to go to the hospital after this."

"Dude, you should get some days off and enjoy your life! God knows how long have you spent your life inside that hospital."

"Stop shoving those ideas inside my head, or else i will get fired. By the way since i won't be here tomorrow, Alana, don't forget to warn him if he's standing up for too long or else it might leads him to Peripheral Nerves injury. It's better to use the wheelchair, if i may suggests."
