It all started with a match. One simple match. Just a match between Argentina and Saudi Arabia. The match on November 22nd.

Then, she discovered the thing called World Cup. The World Cup (with capital letters). The one thing that united the world...
"We are going somewhere to eat to celebrate the end of the week," Ivy informed me of their plans.
"Are you coming?" Mia asked after that.
"I won't be able," I lied. "I need to get home as soon as school ends," I tried to make the lie even more reliable. "I'm just going to pick up something from my locker, and I'm going," Ivy nodded, and Mia looked at me with a kind expression. They were so easy to be lied to. "I'll see you on Monday, girls," I told them, and they started slowly walking away from me. Now, I could take my plan into action.
My father told me yesterday that he fired Mr. Nicolas. I bet he is mad at Olivia and her filthy company and decided to stop training them. Even the thought of girls training football, was enough to cause me to start vomiting. Like, in what world do we live in? Girls are supposed to play tennis, to swim, to be cheerleaders. Not football players. That was literally against nature.
I didn't even know why they had started training. It was certainly to attract attention. There is no other explanation. Like, Olivia probably has some little crush that she wants to impress. Like every girl that likes football. Ugh, I cannot even think more about these creatures.
Yesterday, I came up with a plan to follow the three "players" to training (if they had one at all since my father fired Mr. Nicolas) as their general useful labor ends. I had a reading club, so I could wait for their obligations' end since they didn't have seventh and eighth period on Thursday. It was the perfect opportunity.
As they finished cleaning the school football pitch from different leaves, little garbage, and weeds on it, I saw them taking their bags and walking to the direction of the school grounds exit. Perfect. If they have training, I'll follow them to the location they go to do so. And if they don't, I'll understand when they part in different direction in the subway. They live in complete different neighbourhoods in the city.
Since there were other students that finished with their clubs at that time, it was easy for me to follow them without it being obvious or suspicious for anyone.

I was still following the three. They were waiting for their metro. I watched them from a distance, carefully keeping my cover of not being there.
They were still together at one of the metro stations that they were supposed to be separated already. I guess they haven't learnt their lesson, and I'll make them pay for that.
Right after that, I heard the subway coming and stood up as well as the other people around me, so I could mix up with the crowd. Of course, I had to enter the same wagon as them if I wanted to understand when they are leaving the underground train.

When I found myself sitting on one of the metro seats while the machine was moving under the city I lived in, I made sure to be well hidden from the three but till have great vision on them.
The train started slowing down, and I saw them standing up, so they could exit through the doors. It was a station that neither of them lived on. I was sure because I had gone do Liv's and Paige's places before. I also knew that Blake-girl was living on the other side of the town.
As the metro train finally stopped, and I saw them leaving it, I took my bag and waited for a few seconds, so I could both leave before the doors close and avoid the ones I was following to understand what I was doing.
I walked behind them, but this time there weren't any people. Where are they going? At some dirty and filthy as them place? I waited for them to increase the space between us, and right after they did so, I started walking right on their trays.
When I reached the stairs and climbed them, I find myself in a place I couldn't describe with one word. One awful word. That could only describe a literal...dump. There wasn't anyone. Not a single person. The only thing I could see were some abandoned houses that looked like haunted. I even saw a rat running out of one of them as I passed it. The only thing I could hear was Blake's laugh from time to time. You can understand where I was forced to go.

A/N-Hey, I'm sorry about not posting earlier, but since it was my first day of school, I didn't have time to do so earlier. I want to apologise if the part is not so well written or boring. Again, I'm really sorry about it.
