Once me and my teammates were done calling it out, I went over to Mel on the bench. I sat down, and said," Hey how are you doing?" She looked up responding with,"It hurts, I cant even walk on it yet, I can only stand on it." "Well atleast you can stand on it. Want something like water or food?" I asked. "I dont have money.." She replied. "Thats fine I'll pay, come on get on my back." I get on the ground and she gets on. "Are you sure what if I am too heavy." She tells me. I laughed a bit and said,"No youre not come on!" We walked to the stand that our student council was at. "Hey Alexa and Melanie! Good game, sorry about your leg as well Melanie. What can I get you?" This girl said. I believe she was the president at our school. "Thanks, Mel what do you want?" I asked. "Can you just get me some chips, Im not that hungryy" She replied back. I nodded and asked the girl, "Can I have a coffee and some chips?" "Sure that will be 6 dollars." She replied. I gave the girl my 6 dollars and handed Melanie her chips. "Here give me your coffee, I dont want you to drop it." Mel told me. I handed her the coffee and I walked to the stands. "You want to hang out just us two, or want to go with my dad? He is over there waiting for me." I asked Mel. She smiled and responded with,"Lets go with your dad, he looks nice." I smiled and nodded. It was hard getting up the steps, but I eventually got to my dad. "Hi apa, this is Melanie." I told him. "Hi mija, hi Melanie." He said. Melanie smiled and said hi back. I nelt down to let Mel sit down, and then I sat down as well. "Jugasteis bien Alexa. You scored tres golazos." My dad told me while hitting my back twice. "Thank you apa." I relplied. "You did good too Melanie, I saw you." He told her. I felt happy? My two favorite people talking to each other. "Thank you!" She responded. "Mija ya puedes ir con ella, voy estar aqui. Quero ver a los niños jugar." He said in spanish. "Ok esta bien, ya te veo mas al ratito apa." I replied. Mel went on my back again, and we left to go to the student section.

"You speak good spanish." Mel told me. "Thanks, wanna go with Isa and Ale?" I asked her. She nodded no and said, "Can I go get my bag firsttt!!" I laughed and agreed. I had to get my bag as well. "You did really good lex, thanks for helping me too. Isa and Ale didnt even come. I think they went with their parents." She said. "Yea I saw them with their moms." I replied. "I know I never told you, but Im not close with my mom. I never have." Mel told me. In that sentence I related to her. I was never close with my mom either. "I understand that. I was never close with my mom either, but it doesnt define us." I replied. She paused for a second, I could tell. Her tone in voice changed and she sounded like she was going to cry. "Thanks. Ive never seen your mom? Does she work late?" She asked. For a second I felt like I couldnt breathe. Like she sucked all the air out of my lungs, and I couldnt respond. Ive never talked about my mom to anyone but my dad. I felt comfortable enough to tell Mel though. "Um no.. My dad and my mom divorced. She took my older sister and I stayed with my dad. They live in California where I used to live. And well me and my dad moved here to not be near them. They were toxic." I told her. I then realized she has been there for me more than my own sister, and mother. "Im sorry lex. Atleast youre away from them and dont have to see them constantly. Its for the best." She said and she put her arm around my shoulder. "Thanks, sorry about your mom too, I wouldnt want to deal with that. You shouldnt either." I replied. She thanked me and I walked inside the locker room. Once we got our bags, my dad was calling me to go to the truck. "Come on, I will take you home. My dad wont mind." I told Mel. She smiled and said, "Thank you, I didnt have ride." I put my two backpacks on my right arm, and she had one of her backpacks. I put her soccer backpack on my other arm and I walked to them car. "Are you sure you can carry them lex? Its heavy." She told me. I nodded no and said I was fine. It wasnt heavy to be honest, I just wanted go.

Once we got to her house, I carried her to the door and let her stand. "Heres your bags." My dad said as he got out of the car. "Gracias!" Mel said. My dad gave a little smile and she went inside her house. "Thanks lex! I'll see you tommorow!!" She told me and she waved by as she got inside her house. "Ya vamanos mija. Its dark." My dad said. I went in the front of his truck and we went home. "You did good mija. I will make sure to take you somewhere to eat." He told me. "Thanks apa, you dont have to, you can just make me something at the house and we can play on our ps4 haha." I replied. I was grateful for my dad and my friends.
