When Estella woke up, no one was home.
She had breakfast and left immediately to complete her work for school.
She had been called hundreds of times by Pedri before she got home.

When she entered the house, there were voices from inside, indicating that a few more people were in the house besides Pedri.
When Pedri came to her, he was extremely cheerful.
"Where have you been hija?"
"Here I am, Pedro, who's inside?"
"A few people from the team."
Estella couldn't help but frown as she and Pedri entered the living room.
Was that the understanding of a few people?
"So you're Pedri's sister! We've heard your name a lot, princesa."
Estella smiled.
"Yeah, he keeps telling us about you. You're prettier than I expected."
After a small thank you, Estella sit down next to her brother.
"How old are you?"
"18."
"You're the same age as Gavi. Gavi."
He laughed as he nudged Gavi with his elbow and raised his eyebrows.
He continued to laugh as Pedri threw a few chips at him.
"I'm Robert Lewondowski, by the way."
"We missed that part, I'm Ansu."
"Frankie."
"Raphina."
"Ferran."
"Marc."
They all went back to their conversation after I nodded.
"Estella, do you have a boyfriend?"
She shook her head when the guy dealing with Gavi spoke again, where she learned his name was Ferran.
"You hear, Pablo, don't miss this beauty, my friend."
Ferran laughed as Pedri tossed his hands again.
"Don't be so jealous Pepi, your sister will marry and have children someday."
"This is not possible in the near future."
"Pablo, give me your ID card."
Gavi frowned at Ferran.
"I'll get a wedding date for you in 5 years."
When Pedri stood up, Ferran ran away.

A few hours later, only the three of them remained in the house again.
Of course, he was tired of dealing with Pedri Ferran and training and fell asleep.
Estella draped the blanket over him, then sat next to her and caressed his face.
She smiled.
Her playmate had grown up, funny.
They weren't even as close anymore, it's a pity.
But maybe they could happen again, after all he was with her from now on, right?
"You care a lot about each other."
Gavi, standing in front of the coffee machine, spoke as she walked into the kitchen.
"He was my best friend."
"What do you mean?"
"We've grown, we've changed. Pedro's life in particular has changed a lot. While I'm happy for him, but I miss him."
"Isn't that why you're here?"
Estella nodded.
When the machine beeped, Gavi picked up the glass and handed it to Estella.
"Thanks."
Their exchanges with Gavi did not cease as Estella sat down on one of the kitchen barstools.
So much so that for a while they could not even hear the sound of the machine.
"What education are you studying?"
"Fashion design."
"This is good."
"Like that."
"Are you going to stay here or continue somewhere else?"
"I'm here for now."
He shook his head.
Estella was glad that he was trying to speak, but she didn't know how to proceed.
"You have a sister, don't you?"
"Yes, Aurora."
Gavi smiled.
He pulled out the chair in front of Estella and sat down.
"Ask me a question."
"What question?"
"Anything."
"So... your favorite TV show?"
"..."
They got to know each other all night, joked around, and Estella felt happy around him.
Gavi smiled at her, then looked at the coffee mug that had been finished hours ago.
"I'd better go."
"Are you sure, it might be hard to find a taxi at this hour."
Gavi shook his head.
"There's early practice tomorrow."
Estella knew he could stay if he wanted to stay, but if he didn't, there was no point in forcing it.
"Alright."
When Gavi got up and Estella went to the hall with him, Gavi put on his coat and turned back to Estella.
"Good night, see you soon."
"See you soon Pablo."
The two parted after a short hug.
