That's How It Was ║ Leon Goretzka

Francisco

On Thursday evening, Leon came to my house, he was coming out of a little cold. We were on the sofa, I was sat, and he lay on my legs, we were watching a movie on Netflix, Leon let him put it in Spanish. While he was lying down I caressed his head, it was funny, because if I stopped caressing him, he would take my hand and put it back in his head. At the end of the movie, I wanted to go to the bathroom and give the medication to Leon, but, he was already asleep.

-Leon - I whispered

He didn't answer me

-Leon - I said a little louder... nothing

I took his head to stand and then I laid him down and looked at him for a few seconds. I went to the bathroom and then for a blanket and a pillow for Leon. I lifted his head to put the pillow and covered him with the blanket, then I went with Mrs. Estela.

- Mafer! It's good that you arrive - said Pilar

- Good night - I said.

- Look Mafer, he's my nephew, Francisco -

Francisco, a very handsome boy

-Hi, I'm Francisco - said the boy with a Spanish accent and offered his hand

- Hello, I am Mafer, nice to meet you - I said, greeting him.

- Delighted - he said with a smile.

- Let's have dinner, Mafer - said Mrs. Estela.

- No, I just came to see how you were I said.

- It won't be necessary, Mafer, go, let's have dinner -

-Ahmm ... -

- You busy? - asked Pilar

- Well, Leon's here - I said.

- Well, invite him, too - said Estela.

- Good idea. Take him here, Mafer - said Pilar

- We don't want to disturb - I said

- You won't, and you know it - Pilar said.

- Well, let me go for him - I said.

I went home, Leon was watching the TV, he looked at me when I closed the door, then I hugged him from behind and gave him a kiss on the neck.

- You want to have dinner? - asked

- What are you going to cook? – he asked

- Nothing, Pilar invited us - I said, giving him a kiss on the forehead and then he looked at me.

- Do you want me to go with you? – he asked

- They also invited you - I said - And of course I want you to go with me - I said and then he kissed me - I'll take it as a yes - I said with a smile.

- Let's go! - he said.

I took my boy by the hand and headed for the house.

-Good night - Leon greeted.

-Leon! Come on son - said Estela who welcomed him with a hug

- So nice that you're here - Pilar said, kissing him on the cheek.

- Look Leon, he's my grandson Francisco - said Estela

-Hello... -

- Leon Goretzka? The Schalke footballer? - asked Francisco

- Yes, that one - Leon answered.

- Nice to meet you, I'm Francisco -

- Nice to meet you too - Leon said.

We started to eat, I don't know if it was me or my nerves, but, I could see that Francisco was looking at me too much, to the point of bothering me a little, I ignored him, only smiled repeatedly.

- And you're going to play on Saturday? - asked Francisco

-I don't know, maybe, it depends on what the coach says- answered Leon

- I wish you luck, Leipzig is unstoppable - Francisco said in a somewhat arrogant tone.

- Yes, I hope we win - Leon said quietly.

- And if it won't happen? -

- Francisco! - said Pilar in a slightly annoying tone

- Well, we will think about the next match and see what the errors were - Leon answered.

What's wrong? Why is he talking to Leon like that?

We finished dinner, said goodbye, and went home. We totally avoided the theme of Francisco.

-I wish you lot of success on Saturday my love - I said hugging him from the waist

- I think you must give me another kiss, for good luck - he said.

- I think the same -

I took him from the back of his head and put his lips on mine.

-Give me another one that I'm leaving tomorrow, and I will not see you until Sunday -

Almost like a slave obeying orders, I kissed him again.

-I love you - he told me.

- I love you, Leon, and too much - I said close to his lips
