AN HOUR AND A half had passed and Maisy and Andres were finally done studying. The two were now seated in Dre's car, finishing up the food that had been ordered.
As the sun started to set, the pair spent their time in his car talking. Now this is what Maisy has in mind everytime they hang out, she talking like normal, not all over eachother. She cleaned her fingers from her food's salt and oil residue with a napkin that was in their chick-fil-a bag and discarded the napkin into the box that her chicken nuggets came in.
"So," Andres began after going on tangents about random stuff in his life "Anything new with you?"
"Umm," She tried to think about something she could tell him, she wasn't used to him actually interested in knowing about her. A smile started to form on her lips and her face lights up.
"Okay, so i haven't really told anyone about this yet expect for people really close to me but i have a soccer tournament coming up! And i know it's not that big but it's important to me because soccer is just such an important thing for me"
He raised his eyebrows "That's so cool, congrats!" His tone wasn't very congratulating but Maisy didn't pick up on that.
Maisy beamed "Thank you! I just think it's so cool, soccer is one of the only things i can do that makes me feel normal, i don't know how it's gonna go. I hope it goes good. I just think it's so cool and i'm really excited for it" She told him.
Soccer was one of the things Maisy was passionate about, she absolutely loved the whole concept of it. She loved the excitement, the thrill, the feeling of victory, the feeling of being normal. Once she steps on the field, everything goes away.
She was genuinely proud of herself and her growth throughout her soccer career. Her child-like excitement couldn't be contained and it was prevalent all over her face. "Oh! And get this! I was nominated as best player in the state! Which is insane!"
"Really?" Andres incredulously questioned "You were really nominated? Wow."
The glint in Maisy's eyes slowly diminished and the smile on her face wasn't genuine anymore. What was that tone he had in his voice? "What is that supposed to mean?" She slowly asked in sheer confusion.
He shook his head "Nothing, i'm just surprised you got nominated as best player in state" He shrugged "I mean, i just think soccer is a dumb sport, and i don't see how you would get that title, your not even that good you know?"
