Foudroyant (Manuel Neuer)

10

I'm in my regular warm up before the training starts,

When I see Bastian jogging over towards me

I shoot him a questioning look from afar

But he keeps jogging towards me

And when he finally reaches me

He blurts out,

'I found the perfect woman for you.'

And his mischevious grin appears on his face

I roll my eyes and resume my warm up

Trying my best to ignore Bastian who's talking nonstop

About a person he knows from his childhood

'Forget it, Schweinsteiger.'

I grumble, glaring at him

'I love Denise and I won't stop loving her,'

He sighs, letting his head fall and he shakes his head

'Manu,'

He starts after a long pause

'You have to let her go.

She's happy with Thomas and quite frankly,

You can't be with her since she's married to Thomas.'

'I don't care, Schweinsteiger.

Just leave me alone.'

I retort almost as he finishes his sentence

I am getting fed up by him,

I told him many times that I don't need his help

And yet he still tries to make me move on

'Let me help you, Manuel.

You'll end up getting hurt, trust me.

I've dealt with this before, and still am,

And I eneded up broken hearted.

I don't want you to make the same mistake

That I made before,

And so that's why I want to hel you.'

'But I don't want to. I love her!'

I snap

Bastian doesn't say anything after I said that

He seems to be disappointed at me

There's this ghost of the past that

Waves through his eyes,

Overtaking the mischevious glint before,

As he stares at me

'Alright,'

He says, sighing after that

'Alright.'

He says once more and he leaves me alone again
