Carli's POV:
Sophia is 11 months old, Kelley's personality is really coming out with this little girl.
Sophia always tries to make me,Brian or teammates from Sky blue laugh. One thing she loved doing was grabbing peoples noses and pull on them, yes it doesn't hurt at all but it's so funny seeing her mess with people.
This week I will be taking Sophia with me to a national team camp, most of the team hasn't seen Sophia since the incident so it will be a a nice little reunion for all of us.
But this is Sophia's first time flying under my knowledge, it's from New Jersey to California.
"I hope you have a great time babe, and you be good for Carli Sophia" Brian says while buckling Sophia in her car seat
"Please be carful on the freeway" as I look at my lock screen on my phone which is me,Alex and Kelley during the Olympics
Brian notices that
"I promise nothing is going to happen, those two are watching over Sophia also" Brian says while his hand on my knee
During the drive Sophia was occupied with highlight videos of Kelley and Alex, me and Brian both want her to remember them who for they we're and they didn't leave her because she wasn't loved.
She was just awestruck, she kept pointing at them and babbling some random words.
When she's a teenager it will probably be the hardest for her, I just have this feeling teachers and I'll ask her if her parents we're Alex and Kelley.
That's what I'm afraid of and the coming home crying not wanting to talk to anyone ( when Sophia is a teenager there will be chapters from her point of view)
"We're here" Brian says
"Thanks babe for dropping us off" I say before kissing him
"Anything for you, will you be ok handling her and the luggages??"
"Yep, but I'll just have our carry ones, she's already walking so this should be fun..." I say
Brian crouches down to Sophia who is standing with help of my hand
"Behalf Soph or you won't get a treat when you get back" Brian says
Sophia just stomps her feet in excitement
Yes, Sophia has started to learn to walk now, I videoed it to keep, Something Kelley and Alex missed from their daughter milestones.
"Ok Sophia let's go, bye babe, I'll text you when we land" I say before walking into the airport to the desk to drop off our 4 luggage's.
"Hello, how many luggage's?" A lady says behind the desk.
"4 luggage's, we're going to California" I say
The lady is typing on her computer and looks down to see Sophia, "is she yours?"
"She's my former teammates daughter, they passed away a few months ago" I say in a flat tone
"Oh I'm so sorr-"
"It's ok, have a nice day"
At the gate
Since it is was 1:00 and we had a hour before I flight I decided to get some food for me and Sophia.
We ended up just getting some food from McDonald's, I opted for a salad and a coffee
Sophia just got a happy meal.
"Sophia, let's head the gate to eat" I say with my hands full of our food.
And right after I said this Sophia decided to start running towards our gate
"SOPHIA EVELYN O'HARA MORGAN!!! I scream quietly
Now I'm chasing a 11 month old to our gate, she stops where we we're seated before
"Sophia, you do not run! You stay with me" I say sternly
"Now just eat your food..." I say
And then just what I needed right now....
"Carli Lloyd?!" A group of teenagers say behind me
"Seriously..." I mumble, I turn around and it's a group of 6 teenagers
"Can we get a picture?" They all say energetically
"Sur-"
"whose baby is that?" One teenager says
"Aww, Wait is that Kelley and Alex's kid?!" Another squeals
"Yes, but Please let her eat" I say
"Can we get one picture with her?"
I turn around to Sophia who is seating in her sit eating some last pieces of her meal
"Sophia do you want to be in a picture with me? I say
Sophia then nods and I help her off the seat
"Thank you for taking a picture with us" another girl says
A older lady comes in front with a camera
"Ok, on three, smile!"
"See you at the next games Carli!" They all say
Intercom: flight 298 to California is now boarding
"Ok Sophia are you ready to see your aunties soon?"
And Sophia is nodding with a huge smile on her, the same smile Alex had.
