Perfect - Alexia Putellas

Chapter 2

After bidding farewell to her lovely new friend Olga, Karter takes the small suitcase in hand, as it slowly travels behind her as she makes her way up the elevator towards her new apartment.

The nerves creeping in, still slightly overwhelmed with the new move. She takes the keys given to her by Olga that were sent from the club and turns the door nob open.

The apartment was beautiful.

It was an open set plan, very wide windows showing off her stunning new view over Barcelona.

Karter's eyes scan over the entire place she would now call home. It was mostly fully furnished except for missing a personal touch. She made a mental note to remember to go shopping for additional objects when she could.

The blonde slowly makes her was towards the rooms observing every small detail in the hallways. The first room she walked into was the main bedroom. It consisted of large open windows, a large bed, fair size wardrobe and a bathroom attached. The following room was just a smaller study with a desk set up.

The apartment seemed perfect for Karter.

She found herself plonked on the larger comfortable couch in front of the tv. The girl had no idea what was playing on the tv considering it was all in Spanish and she was very new to the language.

The duolingo lessons she tried to quickly fit in before coming over were pretty useless. She knew she probably should have been more prepared coming to a country where she knew no one and didn't understand the language. This of course made the girl more anxious.

As the hours passed on Karter didn't move from her spot on the couch, trying to take up all the relaxing before everything gets full on.

She knew how stressful it would be during season, no time for relaxing, always go, go, go. So the blonde had to soak up all of the time she could. Eventually she started getting hungry and decided to order something.

The language barrier was a problem yet again barely understanding a word the person on the phone said. "uhhh, un pizza, por favor?" she nervously stutters trying to remember everything she previously learnt.

There was a knock on the door roughly an hour later signalling that her food was here. She rises from the couch and says her thanks to the delivery person.

After enjoying her dinner she decides it would be best to go to bed considering her big day tomorrow, finally signing the contract and possibly meeting the team.

Laying down in the new bed with freshly washed she sheets, Karter played her sleeping playlist quietly and set her alarm for 8am making sure she would have enough time to get ready for the day ahead.

The girl drifted off to sleep shortly after her head hit the pillow, music softly playing in the background accompanied with her soft snores.

Bright light illuminates through the room, Karters still sleepy eyes slowly open as she scans her surroundings. The girl still tired because she had woken up multiple times throughout the night, but this was just routine to her now.

Karter puts her long blonde hair up in a messy bun making her way towards the kitchen. Her hand reaches for the cold fridge door opening it slightly. Observing the fridge to see it empty after not going grocery shopping yesterday as soon as she got here.

Off to a great start.

She decides to skip breakfast and just get a coffee on the way to the club. Not really knowing what to wear due to not being given the uniform yet, Karter wears black cargos, matched with a shirt and white air forces. Internally scolding herself for not bringing nicer clothes.
