Chapter 149 Happy Christmas Eve

The process of roasting a turkey is complicated, so the task was handed over to Antonio.He needs to bake the turkey breast side down for 45 minutes, then take it out and brush the surface of the turkey with the juices in the roasting pan, and then rotate it ninety degrees to continue baking. After 15 minutes, take the turkey out, brush the surface of the turkey with baking liquid again, turn it over and bake at 180 degrees, and finally bake the chicken breast up for 45 minutes.

Such a series of steps, in Antonio's view, is almost as tiring as playing a full game.

"Annie, take Chris home if you have a chance!" Ms. Lopez who was stirring the salad suddenly said.

Antonio was stunned. He closed the oven door, and after setting the time, he turned around nervously and said, "Mom, do you know?"

"Can I not feel my kid is in love?" Ms. Lopez was laughing, though the smile was shallow, "Leon told me it was Chris, I really didn't think...forget it , as long as you like it."

Ms. Lopez, who bowed her head, showed a kind of exhaustion. She sighed and said with a strong spirit: "When I first found out about this, I couldn't sleep all night and felt very angry. But I can feel that you are very happy and satisfied. So slowly, I can accept it."

Mr. Rodrigue washed his hands, hugged Ms. Lopez and kissed him. Then he turned his head and said to Antonio: "A few days ago, your mother and I were discussing whether you would take Chris home for Christmas. If If you can last long, invite Rey's family to spend Christmas together!"

Antonio could feel the complexity in the hearts of the two parents, which were sadness, joy, and a little bit of complaint.These emotions flooded Antonio instantly like a tide, and before he knew it, his eyes were red, "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, I just... haven't figured out how to say it yet."

"We all know that you take the people you care about very seriously, and you are worried that you will hurt us. But you can't keep everything secret, even if your son has a boyfriend. This will make us as parents It feels like a failure!" Mr. Rodrigue's attitude was a little harsh, but his expression soon softened, "Although modern society has become more and more open, the tolerance for homosexuality in football is still very low. You Protect yourself and those who love you. When Leon communicated with us, he told us that he was very worried that one day your sexual orientation would be exposed and ruin your entire career. As your agent, he also bears a lot of burdens. A lot of pressure. So you guys have to keep a low profile and know what you can and can't do."

"Wash off the tattoo on your waist and abdomen first!" Ms. Lopez wiped her tears and accused with some annoyance: "You haven't tattooed anything about us, but you dedicated it to Chris for the first time. How can I not be angry? Don't say my name, you don't even have Sophia's name tattooed, is it fair?"

"..." Antonio, who had nothing to say, could only look at his mother stupidly.

"By the way, tell me first whether you are above or below. Have you had any deeper communication?"

"I'll go out and rest for a while!" Antonio was blushed, and he quickly fled after leaving these words.

Mr. Rodrigue and Ms. Lopez, who were left behind, laughed together. Their calm and intelligent eldest son is still very cute when he is shy!

In the living room, Jesus was slumped on the sofa watching TV. Antonio walked over and stared at him without saying a word.

At first Jesus could ignore the cold gaze, but gradually he became uncomfortable, and finally he couldn't help but asked, "Don't you want to watch this show?"

"Don't you have anything to explain about me and Chris?"

"Explain what? You don't know how sad I am! Woohoo~" Covering his face, Jesús faked crying and peeped at Antonio's expression through his fingers, "I'm broken in love, but you insist on bringing it up in front of me." Your love partner, you must have done it on purpose! I knew you didn't care about me at all..."

"Really?" Antonio nodded with a half-smile, and then took out a car key from his pocket, "I wanted to give you an expensive Christmas present, but since you've said so much, I still want to give you this Cayenne It's better to leave."

Jesús stood up abruptly, "Cayenne? Porsche? For me? Annie, I was wrong, Bonita threatened me so I had to say it! You know, I've always been your man, But I don’t dare not listen to the Queen’s words. No matter what kind of difficulties I experience next time, I will keep your secret, I swear!”

Rolling his eyes, Antonio threw the car keys over, "Okay, I don't blame you, I have to talk about it sooner or later. But next time you have to tell me the truth, and you can't let your parents surprise you again. It almost scared me to death just now."

"Okay, okay, I promise!" Jesús happily held the car keys, and the sadness of broken love was swept away.

The turkey was roasted, and the aroma tempted everyone. Sophia kicked her little leather boots while swallowing. She couldn't wait for the sumptuous Christmas dinner.

"Cheers!" The wine glasses filled with milk, orange juice or red wine collided together and made a crisp sound. Now Antonio felt very happy, and there was nothing more satisfying than being able to get together with the family during the festival.

Children have relatively small appetites. When the others were getting better, Sophia was already full. She touched her round belly, and then quietly picked up the marzipan and took a bite.

Antonio was amused by the sneaky behavior of the little princess, especially when she peeked at people with her big eyes, not to mention how cute she was.He put down the knife and fork, and wiped Sophia's mouth with a tissue.

"A Cayenne? Annie, what's our Christmas present?" Jesus' showing off made Ms. Lopez look forward to her gift even more.

"You'll find out when you go to church and say Mass."

"Well, I have a surprise for you too!" Ms. Lopez blinked and decided to keep the mystery.

The adults were chatting, and Sofia soon got bored. She jumped off the chair and raised her hand and said, "I want to perform a new song from the teacher!"

Antonio applauded and acted as an announcer, "Next is the performance of the little princess Sofia—"

Sophia proudly puffed out her small chest, and said in a dignified manner: ""MiBurrito Sabanero""

"Riding my little donkey, I'm going to the place where Jesus came..."

Affected by the atmosphere, Ms. Lopez also sang "Silent Night" in bel canto, and Antonio played "House by the Sea" on the piano.Laughter and laughter floated out of the window and merged with the small lanterns on the side of the street, creating a peaceful and beautiful Christmas Eve.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Rodrigo family packed themselves up and prepared to go to the church to attend midnight mass.

"Brother, can I stay awake tonight?" Sophia was very excited about this kind of mass held in the middle of the night, which is the only time of the year. In her memory, she hardly participated in any midnight activities.

"Yes, you can stay up all night, but I don't think you can last." Helping the little princess tidy her hat, Antonio kissed her little cheek.

"No! I can definitely do it!" Waving her small fist, Sophia swore.

"Well then, we can go together."

People who finished Christmas dinner came out of their homes one after another, and they merged into a river, rushing towards the church.

When the deacon sang the Christmas proclamation, Antonio felt the vibration of the mobile phone in his pocket. He greeted Jesús and walked out quietly.

"Annie! Huh...huh..." Chris ran over out of breath, "Finally found you!"

"Is it okay not to attend Mass?" Antonio knew very well how devout Chris' parents, who were Catholics, were.

Chris shook his head triumphantly, "My dad has been staring at me, but I still ran out, he must be mad at me."

Both of them are very familiar with the city of Seville, where they have lived for many years. They walked slowly along the streets, and some memories would pop up in their minds from time to time.

"Here, this river! Back then, I was dragged and beaten together by you. You must know that I had never fought with others before that. I didn't know what to do when I was beaten up. You go, and I never thought that someone would ambush us again." Sitting on the railing, Chris shook his legs with a smile, "I watched you come here, walk to the river and start Cleaning the dirty schoolbag. Your back looks very calm along the way, with an indescribable aura. When I was hiding behind the tree, I thought: This boy is so cool! But soon I will I found out that you were crying."

Recalling the past, Antonio’s beautiful blue eyes were also stained with a smile, “I remember when you were young, you hated other people crying, and then I loved crying too much. I would cry when I was bullied by children, I would cry when my parents were away, and I would cry when I was in the final exam. I still cry if I don't become No.1..."

"My dad has always taught me that a man can't cry, and finally I got to know you, a crybaby. At first I didn't like to play with you at all, but then I felt that you are always alone and crying in hiding , so that time I ran over and patted you on the shoulder. I remember that time you were still wearing the pot head, your eyes were big and blue, and there were tears on your cheeks, and you were hiccupping in fright when I jumped out suddenly. I think you're funny and fun!"

"So you just put your hands on your hips and laughed, didn't you?" Antonio smiled and shook his head, then pinched Chris's fingers and played with them, "I'm very angry that I can't stop hiccupping, but it seems that you are the first For the sake of a friend who has been to my house, I still forgive you. Actually... At that time, I still yearned for you, and I knew that you didn't regard me as a friend. "
