𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐁𝐄𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐖𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐅𝐓 for the Worlds, we weren't doing anything interesting. We got up, had breakfast, training, rest, gym, lunch, training, rest, dinner.
But today we were leaving and I couldn't wait. I had a huge hope that we would win, but it was just in my head. We need to win the World Cup and prove that we are a worthy team.
Before they took us on the bus, Francisco and Alan, who was the head coach, had to tell Dede something. "If it's my fear of flying, I'm over it now." he said. "It's not that," said Alan. "And if it's for my lucky socks, I've packed them in a few envelopes and they don't feel," he said.
"Thanks for taking care, but that's not it either." Francisco said. "What then?" he asked. "You will not travel with us to the World Cup." Francisco said. "Why?" Dede asked in fear. "You're going to Avelles." said Alan. "What?" "You will be participating in a training camp held in Avelles." said Alan.
Yes, we were all surprised. "Seriously? I?" he asked in surprise with a smile. "Every team participating in the World Cup has one player who goes to this camp. We chose you because of the effort and dedication you have shown." Francisco informed him. "Well deserved, congratulations." Isabel, who was the academy's sports director, informed him.
We were all very happy for him and applauded him. "Thank you so much. I am going to Avelles." he said happily. Our bus came, but the boys' bus didn't. We waited for them so that we could all leave together.
We were already in Madrid and entering the academy where the World Cup would be held. When we got off the buses we all started looking around. It was great.
"Phoenix, Falcons, attention! We need to get some paperwork done if you want to tour the building, but leave before we settle in. Do we understand?" Francisco gave us directions. "Yes." we all said.
I was with Gabo, Rafa and the other guys. "Gabriel Guevara?" asked the Green and Black captain. I knew him very well because I had seen him at many matches. "I prefer Gabriel Moretti. Do I know you?" Gabo asked. "I am Olises Zabaleta, the captain of the Green and Blacks. You really haven't heard of me?" he asked
"I'm sorry I'm not." said my brother. "Should I forgive him or not? Oh well, I forgive you this time, just this once." said Olises. "You're the meat team, aren't you?" Daniel asked. "Well done, you must be the brains of the team." replied Olises. "He? Not exactly him." said Daniel's teammate.
Olises was very cocky, very self-confident and always wanted to do dirty things just so he could be number one. "And who are you?" asked me. "I am Carla Guevara, sister of Lorenzo and Gabo." I said. "You're beautiful." he said. "You're not bad either, but I have a boyfriend and nothing can happen between us." I said. "As soon as you say, he won't understand anyway" he told me arrogantly, hoping that things might work out.
With Olises and Gabo we started walking around the building and we were in the cafe where we were going to eat. Olises was cracking some jokes that only he understood.
"Just kidding, we're good guys now, how are you?" he asked. "We hardly talk to each other, we don't understand each other." Gabo said. But then Gaston and the other boys came and greeted Gabo. "You don't think you're the only one who can joke?" Gabo asked with a smile.
The boys went to the jags and it was me, Gabo, Olises and the boys from the green and black. "How many delegations are there, roughly?" Gabo asked. "There are people from over 20 countries." said Olises. "20 countries?" I asked in amazement. "Yes, but don't ask me which ones, I don't know them all." said Olises.
"Be careful, we Mexicans are the best." said a familiar voice and when I turned I saw Lorenzo. Gabo and I hugged first. "Lorenzo!" I said jumping up and hugging him. " I missed you so much." I said. "You too." Lorenzo said and the three of us hugged.
After we saw each other, I had to go to the girls, and Gabo and Alan went to the draw of the matches. We watched it in the lobby of the building. "Juventus and the Kiwis from New Zealand will play in the opening match. The next match is between the Green and Black and the Defenders from Korea. The third game is between the Zeeland from Russia against the Falcons." said the organizer, drawing the marbles one by one.
"There are no more surprises, there are two teams left. 4 match will be between the Crocodiles from Egypt and the Beavers from the USA." We were all in shock. Martin entered. Was he captain of the Beavers?
After the draw, Gabo came to the lobby and they talked about Martin in the lobby. No one could believe it. After what happened with Gabo and him last year, no one believed that they would accept him in any team. And now he has become a captain.
We girls were in front of the games as Zoe was playing a game on the console with the Captain of the Defenders. The girls were trying to influence the captain and started shouting: "Come on Zoe, you're going to break him". He just looked at them.
They thought he didn't understand Spanish because they were from Korea. "For the first time in so long I lose. Will you give me a rematch?" Zoe asked. "Yeah, I haven't had this much fun in a long time." he said in spanish and all the girls were surprised that he knew spanish.
"He speaks Spanish." Kiara said worriedly. "A little, just enough to let me know you want to affect my psyche." he said. "Excuse me" they all apologized to him. "It doesn't matter, we will beat the green-blacks at any cost," he said.
I didn't join the conversation because I don't listen to nonsense. I've had enough of this whole mess with Arturo. "Yes, I wish you success, but I want a rematch." Zoe said. "Another time." he said and got up.

We walked to the room with Gabo and Gaston. Dede was also in our room, but he was at camp. "The idea of shuffling us around the rooms is very good," I said. "Wait for Dede to come." Gabo said. "Why?" Gaston asked.
"Have you never heard of lucky socks?" Gabo asked. "Uh yeah, yeah. Do they even smell that bad?" I asked. "Trust me that much." Gabo said.
We were in room number 5. When we opened the door it was unique. We had two single beds and one bunk bed. Me and Gabo stayed in the single room, and Gaston and Dede will sleep in the double room.
We talked about Dede again until I asked, "Do you know anything about the Zalands?" "I searched the internet but didn't find much." Gabo said. "I read that they completely changed the team from last year, as well as the coach." Gaston called.
"Like Juve!" I said enthusiastically. "And like us." Gabo pointed out. "There are records from last year, they won't help us, the players and the scheme are different." Gaston said. "I like that, they don't know us, we don't know them. All that remains is the pitch." Gabo said.
I took a picture of the World Cup and Carla out of an envelope. "What is this?" Gabo asked. "This is our main goal, to win the world cup," I said.
"And the other picture?" Gabo asked. "The other picture is my main goal, Carla, I have to win it too." I said taping both pictures next to my bed. "It will happen, Arturo, it will happen!" I said.

The next day was the first match. Juve vs the Kiwis. My brother was playing and I had to go watch him. The Kiwis tried to come up with some tactics to send Juve off, but they weren't fazed at all.
And Lorenzo scored. I was very happy because he dedicated it to me. I love my brother very much. It's unique. 1-0 first half.
And another goal in the second half. They gave a foul to Juventus because they kept Lorenzo on the shirt. Lorenzo took the direct free kick 3-0. The match was over and we all went to congratulate Lorenzo and Ezekiel.
