We were almost the last ones to come back to Granja Comary, the place was as lively as ever when we got in. Neymar and I went to our rooms to unpack but I bumped into Mr. Jones on my way.

"Hello Olivia. Did you just get back? I didn't know you'd be gone for the weekend." He said and his surprise and confusion was evident. I should have told him I left, I realized.

"Yes, I just did. I went to see my brother in São Paulo."

"Yes, of course. Marina told me." He said. I was glad Marina and I had thought to say the same thing. "Okay, welcome back then. Get a good night's sleep, because we have practice again tomorrow."

"Will do." I told him. "Good night Mr. Jones."

I knocked on the door at my room but no one was there and the door was locked. I had left my key to Marina for the weekend so I left my things there and went around the compound to search for her. Neither she, nor Bernard were anywhere and no one had seen Marina today.

I knocked on Bernard's room and to my relief he was there.

"Hey Bernard! Did you have a good weekend? Is Marina here?"

"Marina? You don't know?" He said surprised.

"Know what?" I asked him. "Is she okay?"

"She's more than okay. She's at Peter's." He spat bitterly and closed the door to my face before I could say anything.

I stood there for a few seconds for the new information to sink in. I didn't know what to make of it. Marina had admitted to liking Peter but I thought her feelings for Bernard were stronger. I couldn't help but think that what she was doing now, being self-destructive and sabotaging her relationship with Bernard was because she was in pain. And I knew situations like that all too well.

My feet had taken me to Peter's room but in the end I decided against knocking. It wouldn't do anyone any good if I barged in there. I wanted to talk to Marina, or more importantly to get her to talk to me and being judgmental about Peter wouldn't be the right way.

Besides it's not like Peter was a bad guy. He was perfectly fine and he really liked her. So I shouldn't jump to conclusions about them. Maybe Marina broke up with Bernard because she realized her feelings for Peter were stronger and she hadn't had a chance to tell me.

"You heard." Neymar said, as he appeared around the corner, nodding towards Peter's door.

"You too?" I asked him, as he wrapped his hands around me and gave me a quick kiss before taking a step back. Anyone could walk in at any moment.

"Yeah, it's all everyone's talking about. They all feel bad for Bernard."

"Awesome." I said sarcastically. "Do we at least know why..."

"Not sure. It was a bit of a public thing though." Neymar said as we started walking again.

"What do you mean?" I asked him. "Oh, by the way, until Marina shows up I'm locked out of my room. Can I put my stuff at yours?"

"You have to ask? It would be like living together."

I looked at him sideways but he just smiled. "I'm asking because your dad might pop by again and last time it was a miracle he didn't notice me under the covers!"
