'' Fabiola..my one and only family. thank you for always been there. I really don't know how to start this letter to you. By  the time you are probably opening this, I would have probably been gone. I don't have much to say because words can't describe how much I love and care for you. You have stood by me through thick and thin, showered me with so much love and done some crazy things as well. I knew that having this child, I wasn't going to live but I was willing to take the risk and that is why I didn't tell you or Isco about it. Please forgive me. I want you to do me a huge favor; Take care of my little girl for she has no one but you and her father. As of the day I am buried, she is officially your child and remember everything I have belongs to you and her. Thank you and Goodbye.''

this was what was written in the letter that Carmen left Fabiola and Isco.

*****

Months later..

Carmen had already being buried a week after her death. Isco couldn't stop shedding tears at the funeral. It was really a sorrowful day for him. His heart could not take the pain one bit. He cried like a baby. Every time he struggled to forget but it always came back to hit his chest and he would just crash; crying until he falls asleep on the couch.

He was given time away from matches and therefore he spent his days at home feeling all lonely with a little girl to take care of.

Fabiola came at times along with Marco to see him. His brother Antonio also came visiting to see how he was doing. Fabiola makes sure she always sees the baby whenever she was free or on break from work.

Marco and Fabiola's home;

''Marco! hahahaha....stoooopp will yaaa?!'' Marco was tickling his wife who had just gotten back from her workplace. They were in their bedroom together. Marco also just came back from training but was on his way to his father's place for something important.

''I asked for just one kiss... and you're too tired to do that?'' He looked at her in the eyes. She tried stopping herself from laughing. ''I'm tired all round and today is not the day for kisses?'' She asked in form of a question.

"Then it's a day for?... Aha I got it...small ones right?''

Fabiola rolled her eyes and moved away from where they both stood to their shared bed and sat at the edge of it to take off her shoes. ''Another day sweetie.''

Marco moved to where she was and faced her. ''I love you, you know that?'' He gave an expressionless face.

She looked at him and then gave him a kiss on the lips. From small to smooth to comfortable to passionate. All in one kiss. '' I love you more honey.'' She told him with an evil grin playing on her face.

''Woah that was damn! I wasn't even expecting it! You are so good!'' He laughed out loud as she did the same.

''Get ready now or else you are going to be late for father's stuff.''

''Yeah sure.'' He gave her a peck and got his keys. ''Bye.'' He waved as she also waved back. He walked out the door and she shook her head playfully.

''Hello?'' Fabiola spoke into her phone. She was asleep until her phone rang and she picked it up not bothering to check the caller id. ''Hello please are you Mr. Isco's friend?''

''Yes I am. Who is this?'' she came down from the bed.

''Mr. Isco has been drinking too much. We are his neighbor's and the little child at home has being crying for a very long time now. We managed to get your number from the estate management. Come help him.''

She got worried. Drinking? Isco? The little girl? oh no! ''Thank you so much.'' She hung up and grabbed her purse and cellphone. She switched off everything and rushed to her car, reversing it.

"Nothing better happen to that little girl, Isco.'' she mumbled to herself. She sped her way to his house, praying while on her way there.
