I looked for Neymar's contact from my cellphone and decided to dial him. I think i might need a company right now, it's already 2am at midnight and i think the party is already over.

"Hey! I wonder if we could meet up like right now? I know it's late, but i just really need someone to talk to."

"Okay, i'll pick you up right away, just send me your address."

"No! You don't have to drive here, just meet me at Breizh Café."

"But, i insist."

I hung up the call first and send my condo's address to him and 30 minutes later he came with his Range Rover. I fix my makeup again, before he noticed that i cried a lot earlier.

"What happened? Do you want to go somewhere?" He asked.

"I love midnight driving, do you mind?"

"Okay, i just full my tank before i came here."

He drive his car away from my condo and there was a long silences before i start the conversation.

"Eden cheated on me."

"What?" He glimpse at me. "You guys been dating for like, years right?"

"Yeah, i just caught him making out with my ex-friend and it turns out, she's not the first one."

"I know break up is really hard, especially with someone you love the most in your life." He spoke in a sad tone.

"Any experience before?" I chuckle.

"I broke up with Bruna. The media doesn't know it yet, but we will announce it later."

"What happened?"

"She's busy with her career and she rejected my proposal," he force a smile. "But i guess i should move on. It's not easy at first, but trust me its worth it."

"I know Eden since we were like a teenager and i share half of my life with him. He's my first love and the only person that could makes me feel like the happiest girl in the world."

I don't want to cry in front of him. I'm a strong independent woman and Neymar shouldn't see my vulnerable state, especially not when we're not close enough.

"I'm sorry i called you in the middle of the night like this, i have no one to share my problems with." I look at Neymar. "You know, someone like me doesn't have a loyal bestfriend."

"I'll be your bestfriend."

We spends our night talking about our relationship. He said that i should talk to Eden. I know it's hard for me to trust him again, but at least i should decide what will happens to our relationship.

We got back to my place at 8am and when we're arrived, there are a lot of Paparazzi crowding outside the lobby like they're waiting for something. I told Neymar to park at the left side of Le Marais Condominium, because if the Paparazzi sees us together, they will assume that i have an affair with Neymar.

"Well see ya next time." I was about to get out from his car, but he hold me back.

"Why don't you just go to my place? If the papz see you walking from this direction, they will see us."

"No, i'm fine. I just need some time alone, besides i have a work to do."

I kissed his left cheek and walk out from his car. I headed to the entrance of my condo and the Paparazzi were trying to take pictures of me, i fasten my walk inside and trying my best to ignore them.
