You had always dreamed of a life filled with love and excitement, and João Félix seemed to offer just that. His charisma and passion were undeniable, and your relationship began with a spark that was both exhilarating and intense.

However, as time passed, the highs of your romance gave way to misunderstandings and hurt feelings. Eventually, you parted ways, both of you nursing wounds that were too fresh to heal.

Months later, your world was turned upside down with the news of your pregnancy. The discovery came as a shock, and though you were excited about the new life growing inside you, the thought of bringing a child into the world without João by your side was daunting.

João was at the peak of his football career, and you didn’t want to complicate his life or drag him into a situation he wasn’t prepared for.

Driven by a mix of fear and protectiveness, you decided to keep the existence of your daughter, Lily, a secret from him.

You moved to a quieter town, far from the glare of the public eye. There, you gave birth to Lily and poured all your love into raising her.

Life was challenging but rewarding, and you were content with the small, private world you had built for the two of you.

Years passed, and your past seemed distant until one day when you heard João was moving to your city. His football team had been traded, and suddenly, his name was everywhere.

The thought of him being so close brought a rush of anxiety. Despite your efforts to shield Lily from the media frenzy, she was curious about the changes in her surroundings.

The inevitable happened when Lily’s school announced a sports event, and João’s team was invited. Your heart raced as you prepared to navigate this new twist in your life.

At the event, you kept a close watch from a distance, but fate had other plans. Lily, ever enthusiastic, approached João for an autograph.

João looked down at her with an intensity that made your breath catch. His eyes then met yours, and for a moment, the world seemed to pause.

Later, João approached you, his face a mixture of confusion and recognition.

Do I know you?” he asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.

You took a deep breath, feeling the weight of your secret pressing down.

No,” you said softly, “I don’t think so.

João’s expression was thoughtful, and he continued to probe until, eventually, you found yourself revealing the truth. You told him about Lily, explaining why you had kept her a secret and the challenges you faced.

I didn’t want to burden you,” you said, tears welling in your eyes.

I thought it was best for her to grow up away from the public eye.

João listened, absorbing your perspective.

I understand you were trying to protect her, but I missed out on so much. She’s my daughter too.
