TRY AGAIN, eduardo camavinga

SIX.

REAL LIFE!

After a delightful evening, Eduardo and Kimberly arrived at his apartment. The city lights of Madrid cast a warm glow through the windows, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere. Eduardo led Kimberly to the couch, and they settled in comfortably.

"Would you like something to drink?" Eduardo offered as he headed toward the kitchen.

"Just some water, please," Kimberly replied, smiling as she sank into the cushions.

Eduardo returned with two glasses of water and handed one to Kimberly before sitting down beside her. "Cheers to a wonderful evening," he said, raising his glass slightly.

"Cheers," Kimberly echoed, clinking her glass with his.

They began chatting, their conversation flowing naturally.

"I loved hearing your stories about Real Madrid," Kimberly said. "It's always fascinating to get an insider's perspective."

Eduardo smiled. "It's a privilege to play for such a club. But it's even better to share these moments with someone who understands the sport so deeply."

Kimberly nodded. "I've always felt connected to Real Madrid because of my dad. But it's also because I genuinely love the game."

Eduardo looked at her thoughtfully. "You know, Kimberly, there's something I've been meaning to tell you."

Kimberly turned to him, her expression attentive and open. "What is it, Eduardo?"

He looked into her eyes, hoping she could see the sincerity in his own. "I want you to know that it's not my intention to use you for fame or anything like that. I care about you for who you are, not because of your father or your status. I just want to be honest with you."

Kimberly's eyes softened, and she placed her hand gently on his. "Eduardo, I appreciate you saying that. It means a lot to me. I've had my fair share of experiences where people were interested in me for the wrong reasons, but I know you're different."

Eduardo felt a wave of relief wash over him. "I'm glad you know that," he said, his voice filled with gratitude. "I just wanted to make sure you never doubted my intentions."

Kimberly smiled warmly, feeling a sense of reassurance and comfort. "I don't doubt you, Eduardo. I really enjoy spending time with you, and I can feel that this is something genuine. It's just that my past experiences have made me cautious."

Eduardo nodded, understanding the weight of her words. "I get that. And I'm here, ready to take things at whatever pace makes you comfortable. There's no rush."

Kimberly took a sip of her water, contemplating. "It's just hard sometimes, you know? Being recognized primarily as Ronaldo's daughter. It's like living in a shadow, no matter how proud I am of him."

Eduardo listened intently. "I can't imagine how tough that must be. But I see you as Kimberly, a passionate, intelligent, and kind person. And I believe you can step out of that shadow and shine in your own right."

Kimberly's smile broadened. "Thank you, Eduardo. That means a lot. I've been thinking about starting my own foundation to support young girls in sports. I want to help them pursue their dreams, just like my father inspired me to do."
