It was close to the race weekend, just 2 more days till the drivers would compete against eachother again.
It was the 5th race of the season, here in Barcelona, Spain. Hamilton had been taking the lead in points for the drivers championship. Again. Mercedes, also in 1st for the constructors. It was a surprise as they have been dominating the past couple of years, with Hamilton by their side.
Me and Kimi had gotten seperate hotel rooms, since my brothers girlfriend, now wife, had came with us. Not that I didn't mind. I very much liked having my own space for the time being, and I usually am always around Kimi.
Recently I had been offered a job in formula 1. And no, I'm not a driver. As much as that would be amazing. I'm a photographer for the media. Kimi had taken part in helping me get the job, talking to the higher people, showing them what I can do with a camera.
It was 7 in the morning when Kimi and Minttu popped by my hotel room, to grab breakfast at a local dinner.
"Uhh.. Tomaré las migas, por favor y gracias." I said, closing the menu infront of me, handing it to the waiter. My Spanish has never been the greatest, but it's something I have been working on the past couple of years.
I turn my attention towards Kimi, who was looking a little lost, "What is it that you want Kim?"
He quickly glances over the menu before peering up and handing over the menu. "Same as you." I nod, "El tendra el mismo que yo." The waiter nods, writing in his notepad before looking over towards Minttu. "I'll have the French toast." She hands off her menu, smiling at me. "Ella querrá las tostadas francesas." The waiter nods and walks off out of sight.
"Seems like you need to work on your española Kimi!" A man's voice appeared behind the booth I had been sitting in. Kimi, looking up and giving a slight nod, smile and thumbs up before turning his attention towards his wife.
I turn my body so I could see who's voice it had belonged too. Only to realize the mystery man was now standing beside our table, I peered up at the figure, only to realize that it was one of the drivers. Carlos Sainz. But he wasn't alone, I didn't recognize the other man standing beside him, but I figure it was probably his trainer, or someone in that category.
"And who's this?" I realized that his dark orbs were now centered on me, alongside his companion. "Suvi." I smiled up at the two before automatically reaching my hand up for a handshake, which both had accepted.
"Are you here for just this race?" The unknown man standing beside the Spaniard spoke up. He began looking between me and Kimi, examining us both. "No, I plan on attending to each race this season." I replied, giving him a soft smile "Kimi here, can't get enough of me." I added, which made Kimi roll his eyes, a small smirk forming on his lips.
I felt eyes burning into me, my head turns to see that it was Spanish driver. He seemed to be confused, or deep in thought.
It grew quite awkward around the table, as much hadn't been said. But thankfully, we were saved by the waiter bringing out our food. It brought Carlos out of his dazed thoughts, taking it as it was now time for him to go and get himself replenished.
"Well, we better get going." He moved off to the side so the waiter can move in and hand us our order. "We'll see you guys on track, yeah?" He then added, as much as he was asking me, Kimi and Minttu, it seemed more directed towards me. Even Kimi started to catch on.
"Yeah, we'll see you. Nice meeting you both." I gave the two a smile, before turning my gaze towards my food. "Nice meeting you too Suvi! ¡Disfrutar!" I hear Carlos call out, but as I look back up, he was gone.
I begin stuffing my face, hearing the muffled giggles coming from both my brother and his wife. "Mitä?" I asked, my mouth still full. They both give eachother a look before digging into their food. "Sinun ei tarvitse huolehtia mistään." Kimi says, a smirk appearing on his face.
