Second Chance

Take this home

It's been about two weeks since the Bahrain Grand Prix and the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. The drivers have a week break before the Australian Grand Prix.

I was back in Italy, and I went to see my family. Touring always made it difficult to see my family, but with this two month break, I was so excited to see them again in a very long time.

I walked into the house and through the hallway. I looked at all the photos on the wall that my mom always insisted on keeping up when me and my brother Luca were little.

I walked through the kitchen to find my parents and brother sitting outside on the balcony, looking at the view that we had of the sea.

I tapped on my brother's shoulders to scare him, and he jumped up, which made me laugh. He turned around to see my face and then gave me a hug. I greeted both my parents with the joy of seeing them, then grabbed a chair and sat down. We talked and caught up before heading to Adamo ed Eva  in Positano.

My family knew this was my favorite restaurant in Positano because of the view of the water and because of the amazing food. They would always try their best to take me there whenever I was at home.

I would always leave clothes at my parents' house just in case so.eyhjng like this would happen. I walked into my room and looked into my closet. I put on a red bodysuit with black jeans and sneakers. I got a black leather jacket and asked my mom for a black purse that would match my outfit, and we left.

The waiter sat us down at a table and ordered our food. While waiting, my phone buzzed on the table. I picked it up to see a notification from an unknown number. I excused myself from the tavlecand walked outside the restaurant.

I unlocked my phone and opened the message to see that it was a text from Oscar. I saved his number and then went back into the text

Oscar 💙

Hey, it's Oscar
9:30pm

Hey

9:34pm

Can I ask a question?

Uh sure

Are you coming to the Australian GP?

No, I'm not

Can you?

Why?

I want to see you... please

I'll come

Thank you

I switched my phone off and walked back to the table

"Where were you?" My brother asked, who has always been nosy

"The bathroom"

I sat back down and tried to keep myself focused on the conversation my family was having. I eventually got there and completely forgot about that text.

After dinner, we went home, and  i spent a little more time with my family before going home. I unlocked the door to the apartment and walked in to see Sofia on the couch with her laptop on her lap. And that's when it came back to me, and my first thought was... 'How the hell am I going to tell her I'm going to Australia?
