"You scored!"
"I know!"
"And then you scored again!"
"I know!"
"And we won!"
"Yes!"
"We're through to the next phase!"
"Yes!"
"And the earth revolves around the sun, not the other way around!" A voice behind me said.
"What?" I turned around to see David.
"You were stating facts, weren't you? I thought I'd chime in."
"Stop ruining everything." Neymar told David but he was smiling from ear to ear. We had won! And Neymar had scored the first two goals! "Actually you can't ruin my mood. Nothing can!"
"Are you sure?" David started.
"David this isn't a challenge!" I yelled at him. "C'mon dude! Let's go back to the hotel."
Everyone was happily singing on the way back. Even Scolari had joined in on the festivities. Unfortunately we'd have to pack our bags and head for the airport that same night which meant we couldn't have a proper celebration.
I headed for my room straight away when we reached the hotel to shower and then pack my things which wouldn't take more than two minutes. I was planning to go by Marina's room first but Bernard beat me to it and I didn't want to disturb them.
I heard a knock on my door the moment I got out of the shower. I opened the door and it was Neymar.
"Am I late?"
"No, not at all." He said as he got in. "We're not going with them."
"What do you mean?"
"We're not going to Granja Comary."
"Can you be any vaguer? Why not?"
"Well we have two free days, starting tomorrow. A lot of people, since we're home decide to spend the time at their houses, with their families and friends. I thought we'd do the same."
"Really?"
"Unless you don't want to."
"And where will we go?"
"I was thinking my house. São Paulo."
I gave him a weak smile which he picked up on. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong, it's just... Will your parents be there?"
"No! That would be a disaster! I mean... you know, with my dad and the timing..."
"Yeah, okay. And they won't wonder where I am back at Granja Comary?"
"I don't think they'd even look for you. We're supposed to have two days free to do whatever we want."
"Okay, let's do it then."
Neymar gave me a wide smile.
"How are we going to get to São Paulo?"
"Plane. But a later flight than the others."
"And won't it be weird if you and I are the only two missing? Besides tickets at the last minute are a little expensive and I don't-" I started saying.
"Slow down! We won't be the only two missing from the flight, lots of guys won't go back to Granja Comary - in fact, the majority won't return. And as for the tickets, it's already taken care of."
