The Saturday Lando came over and I was making dinner for us, we were laughing and having fun, I told him what Carlos said and he was happy. "So what does that mean for us?" he ask and I look up from the pasta I was stirring. "What do you mean?" I ask frowning. "Well Carlos knows now so what is standing in our way." I shook my head and look back at the pasta. "I told him we are just friends Lando." I say and he just keeps quiet. We sat at the table and we ate it was quiet between us, I can see Lando is thinking about something. "Bella, if you just want to be friends that is fine, but I am not going to wait for you to change your mind, you clearly don't want to be with me so what are we doing?" I look up at him and bite my lip. "I don't know, okay why do you want to put a label on it so bad?" I ask getting frustrated for having the same conversation with him. He shakes his head and just ate, the rest of the dinner was awkward.

"Do you want to spend the night?" I ask him and he shakes his head no. "I need to leave, have a great time in Spain Bella, I will see you in Saudi okay." he say walking to the door. I stand there not saying anything. "Lando, please" I say feeling like he is saying goodbye to me. He kisses my head and then he left. I closed the door and walked to my room, making sure I packed everything. I was lying on my bed just thinking about Lando, why am I scared to date him? Yes the public thing is making me scared, but he is really a good guy. I also could not wait to see my mom and dad. I woke up early for my flight, I took a taxi to the airport and soon I was on the flight, I took out my air pods and a book, looking at my phone one last time, still nothing from Lando.

The flight was long, but when I hugged my dad it was all worth it. "Hola Mi. novia" my dad said kissing me on my cheeks, I smiled and greeted him back. We walked to the car and we were driving to the house I grew up in. I told my dad all about my work and I promised to show him the photos I took, we arrived at the house and my mom was waiting for me outside, I jumped out and ran to her. "Hola mama "I say hugging her and she hugs me back kissing me on my cheeks. After I have unpacked we had some tea and we were just catching up. My brother let me know he will come say hello tomorrow and I was just happy to be home. "So your brother tells me you have a boyfriend?" My mom say as we are cleaning the kitchen, I roll my eyes and shake my head. "I had a boyfriend Mama." I say and she look at me surprised. I tell her what happened and she hugged me. "I am so sorry Isa" "its okay, it was for the best." I say and she smiles.

"And what about Lando?" my mom ask again and I look at her in surprise. "What do you mean?" I ask and she smiles. "Carlos told us you guys are hanging out a bit." she say and I frown making a mental note to kill my brother, "No, we are just friends, he wants to be more, but I can't" I say "Why is that?" my mom ask and I look at my hands. "Mama, you know I don't like to be in the public eye, which is why no one even knew I am Carlos sister, with Lando I will always be in the public eye." I say looking at her, she sigh and sat down next to me taking my hand. "Isa, I was the same when I met your dad, but you know what it was all worth it in the end." she say and I look up at her and just nod. "We will see Mama, for now I am happy being his friend." I say and she nods standing up. "Yeah, but is he?" she say and she walk out of the kitchen.

After saying good night to my parents I was just scrolling through my phone, I was having a fight with myself if I should text Lando or not I decided why not.

Me: Hey I am in Spain, it's good to be home. How was your day? I miss you Lando

Before I can change my mind I press send and I can see him read it and I waited for the three dots to appear but it did not, is he leaving me on read, I thought and after 10 minutes just staring at the chat I realize he is leaving me on read and I just put my phone down and tried to fall asleep. I eventually fell asleep and I was woken up by voices in the house. I got dressed and went downstairs, I see my brother and Rebecca sitting with my parents. I walked in greeting my brother and Rebecca with a hug and kissed both my parents good morning. I sat down for breakfast just listening to them all talking, thinking about Lando. "So I guess you guys are really just friends?" my brother say brining me back to the present. "Sorry what?" I ask looking at him, he smiles "you and Lando, you are really just friends?" "Yes why?" I ask and he shake his head taking out his phone and showing me an Instagram post, my heart sank and I had to swallow the lump in my throat.

Lando Norris has been seen out with the actress and model Magui Corceiro, the two of them looked very closed and we wonder where Isabella Sainz are, maybe Magui will be the next WAG.

There was photos of them getting on a plane together and of them in a club, they are very touchy with each other and I just shake my head and gave the phone back to my brother. I did not say anything and then Rebecca say, "it won't last, that Magui is a real character." I look up at her and just nod. "Why" my mom ask "She was dating the footballer Joao Felix and she cheated on him more than once." Rebecca say and I just listen. "You don't know that." my brother say and Rebecca nods. "I do, I have done some photo shoots with her and everyone was gossiping about her and she never denied It." she say and my brother just shake his head.

The rest of the breakfast was good no talk of Lando, we went out shopping in Spain and just walking around the city, I have missed this city. I enjoyed Rebecca's company and I was having a good day. I was happy to be back and I thought if Lando wants to be like that then it's like that, I am not going to try again, I know it is my fault he told me he wanted me and I was not willing to sacrifice. That night I decided to focus on my work and my studies, yes what I and Lando had was special but it was not meant to be. I fell asleep happy and excited to getting back to the paddock taking photos.

Hey, I just want to say I have no hate for Magui and Lando, they are both grownups that can make their own decisions.
