"My darling,
all I want
is to chase beautiful dreams
with you"

In which football's golden girl has a taste of the silver lining.

Waking up the morning of the fashion show I was trying to get out of bed but a certain someone or should I say someone's wouldn't let me leave. "Babe just stay in bed you don't even have to technically be there until two more hours". Davi agreeing with his pai as he clung to me even more "Yeah Mara just stay with me and Pai and I promise I'll be good". Giggling at both there pleas I know I had to leave know or they would somehow convince me to stay. "As much as I would like to stay with my two of my favorite boys I need to leave now or my mamás going to kill me".
Finally getting out of their clutches I made my way to the bathroom to get ready for the day. Knowing I was going to be in a chair or getting ready for the majority of the time I decided on something comfy before heading to the lobby to meet my mama not before kissing Davi on the forehead, Neymar on the lips, and saying a quick goodbye to them also reminding Neymar to grab my duffel bag with my clothes for after the show.
Heading downstairs to the lobby my mama was already waiting for me "Your wearing that you know there's going to be photographers after the show" was the first thing I heard her say. "Yes mom I am but don't worry Neymar's going to bring me a change of clothes for after the show". Making our way to the car we were on our way to the fashion show area.

Just arriving I immediately saw one of my best friends Halima Aden "Ahh it's so good to see you girl" we screamed running into each other's embrace. "I know I've missed you" I replied knowing that it's been awhile since we seen each other. "Hi Mrs. Eréndira" she said hugging my mama "You know you don't have to call me that Halima it's Natalia as your practically family". My mama has known Halima since we hung out at the age of 10. "So are you here modeling too" Halima was also a model mostly famously known for wearing a hijab.
"Yeah girl so I guess we'll be walking the runway together again" making are way inside to get ready for runway glam as I like to call it we were instantly greeted by the other models and makeup artist. While I was getting hair and makeup done after doing a quick practice walk I was questioned by the girls about my relationship with Neymar. "So whose the new flame you were seen with are you guys serious" smiling like a love sick fool. I replied "His name is Neymar he plays futbol like me and yes we're serious he's even met my family". I could tell they were shocked as they've seen first hand how protective my family is. "He's met your family and lived girl you must really love each other then".
Looking down at that since I knew we haven't said the L-word yet "You do love each other right" Halima questioned as she seen me hesitate to reply. "I mean yeah I love him and I hope he loves me but we've never actually said it to each other" I said sadly thinking about the possibility of Neymar not loving me. "Nope girl we're not doing this you two love each other I can see it in your eyes and I can see it in his based on the way you guys look at each other in photos so after this show since it's 2018 and girl power your going to march to him and tell him you love him". Empowered by Haliam's words I knew after the show I was going to do exactly what she says.
