Isolation

Amira Albon had isolated herself. She locked herself away from the world and not a single person could figure out how to make her open up. She didn't even attend Baku after what had happened. After the dinner in Monza she had returned to her hotel room, bawled her eyes out partly in frustration at herself for being so stupid. Partly out of disappointment. 

She returned to Monaco afterwards, and remained in her apartment she shared with Alex and Lily, although the three were rarely ever here. This was the longest she had been in Monte Carlo in a long time. She had been inactive on social media other than the occasional text to her brother or her group chats in order to let them know she was alive. Hector hadn't been himself either, his mind was always somewhere else. 

He knew he needed to give Amira an explanation, he just didn't know how. She literally blocked him. Beside him, Lamine sighed loudly. "Will you quit moping?" 

"No." Hector replied blandly, "I fucked up with her and I can't explain either." 

"You do realize I still talk to her? I could just tell her to unblock you. Not text you just unblock you and then maybe if you text her and explain she'll listen," Lamine says simply, "If she says no then that's that and then you either give up or you take more extreme measures to get her back," 

"You'd do that?" 

"No." Lamine said sarcastically, "If I wasn't gonna do it why would I offer it Hector? Use your brain," 

"Fuck off," Which earned Hector a smack on the back of the head from Pedri. "Why are you swearing at Lamine, he's a child." 

"It was deserved," Hector shrugs. "May I remind you I'm basically your only way to get Amira to forgive you?" Silence. "Mhm, were you silent or were you SILENCED." 

"You got so much sass for a 17 year old boy," Pedri comments, making Gavi nod in agreement.

A few hours went by and Amira's phone started to ring. It was her brother, "We need to talk," was the first thing he said when Amira answered. He appeared to be in his hotel room. 

"About what?" Amira replied, but she had a decent idea on what. 

"About this, about you. Amira you've been holed up in your room for days. I understand you're upset, and you're overwhelmed and you liked him. Feeling things is fine, but what we never do is go into isolation Amira. How am I supposed to be taking care of you when you don't even want to talk to me and you're all the way in Monaco? We don't even know the full story behind what happened. Shit like this happens all the time and more often than not the paparazzi are wrong. You know that Amira." Alex ranted, but still kept his voice soft. Amira hated when people raised their voice at her.
