"Is Piggy in a good mood?"

In the bedroom, after the children had said goodnight, Natalia leaned on the bedside and asked.

Redondo put on his pajamas: "This kid is all about being in the first team of Real Madrid."

Natalia smiled when she heard the words: "It really is a piggy."

"Yeah, he still loves football and Real Madrid."

Redondo pressed his secret worries: Why did his son who likes football so much reject football when he was young?

He recalled the behavior of the eldest son when he was young, it seemed that he was not only repelled, but also a little afraid.

The slightly distant thoughts did not prevent Redondo from continuing to talk to his wife: "He still doesn't want to say it. But I guess he should have completely remembered it now. Even if he didn't think about it, he should have figured it out."

Natalia was a little excited: "Really?!"

"Great……"

she murmured.

After all, Natalia, as a mother, couldn't understand what a terrible experience the eldest son had.

Natalia still remembers the scene when they first met Zhu Xu.

The black-haired, black-eyed boy has a delicate face, and he is attractive, but his figure is much smaller than his peers, and he is not very willing to communicate with other people.

After bringing Zhu Xu home, the Redondo family worked hard for a long time to let the child show his cheerful nature.It's just that this child can't remember his past messages except for being able to write and read his own name.

The psychiatrist said that this is the child's self-protection mechanism.

That's okay, let him pass the sad things, now he is our little prince.

At that time, Natalia walked out of the psychiatrist's office, looked at the small garden obediently sitting on the grass waiting for her son, smiled and squatted down: "Have you been waiting for a long time? Okay, let's go home together!"

"Okay, Mommy~"

Her little prince smiled sweetly at him, without even a trace of gloom in that smile.

Just grow up like this, my little prince.

Natalia thought.

From the beginning to the present, more than ten years have passed in a flash.

Zhu Xu is cheerful and optimistic, enthusiastic and lively, and fully integrated into this family.

But he suddenly proposed to go to La Masia.

Neither Redondo nor Natalia stopped.

And not just because they are enlightened parents who don't forcefully manipulate their children's lives.The important thing is that the child smiled at them, very reluctantly.

The results of Natalia's hard work for many years seemed to have disappeared overnight.

Did Zhu Xu remember something?

The Redondos tacitly hid their doubts in their hearts, and said with a forced smile, well, you can go wherever you want, and your parents support you.

They sent their eldest son Zhu Xu and their second son Fernando to Barcelona and waved goodbye to them.

"Remember to go home when you are on vacation, mom will miss you."

Natalia was not disappointed. When she was in Madrid, Zhu Xu would go home with little Fernando almost every holiday.

But Natalia was not happy, just because the smiles of the two sons were no longer as relaxed and happy as before.

To this day, when she welcomed her husband and sons in, Natalia found that the change she most hoped to see had already taken place.

"Good night kiss~"

The eldest son and the second son who would jump up and down to give him a good night kiss when they were young, today's behavior is as familiar as the countless days and nights before, but their eyes are full of complete relaxation and peace of mind.

It was exactly what Natalia was looking forward to most.

Her husband's words completely reassured Natalia's heart.

"Go to sleep."

Redondo turned off the bedside lamp and shook off the quilt.

"Well...how does it feel to be back at Real Madrid, Phil?"

In the darkness, Redondo closed his eyes: "It's like returning to the time when we first met."

"Oh, I'm going to be jealous then."

"You won't, Nata."

"I will hate a man who is too boring."

"But you've lived with boring men for so many years, Nata."

"...good night, Phil."

"Good night, Nata."

…………

"Brother, is your phone ringing?"

At breakfast time the next day, Zhu Xu's phone suddenly rang loudly.

Seven-year-old Federigo poked his older brother in the arm who was sitting next to him.

"My brother's cell phone ringtone is the Barcelona team song?"

12-year-old Luciana asked innocently.

The passionate Barcelona team song was still going on, Zhu Xu felt cold sweat starting to break out under his father's smile.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding~"

Zhu Xu raised his hands high, and got up immediately after speaking: "Well, daddy, mother, brothers and sisters, eat first, don't wait for me! I'll answer the phone first!"

He ran back to his room in a hurry, and quickly took out his mobile phone.

……Crap! ! !

A total of eighteen missed calls from the same number on the screen reminded Zhu Xu of the consequences of turning off the phone overnight and sleeping a little late because he went home and turned it on late.

"Hey……"

It was rare for Zhu Xu to answer the phone with a guilty conscience.

"Zhu Xu!!!!"

Messi on the other end of the phone called Zhu Xu's name with his first and last name. As a close friend, he could speak the word "Zhu Xu" well, but he yelled out the name with anger like today. , which is extremely rare for him.

"Do you know how many times I called you?!"

"Uh, including this time, nineteen times?"

Messi almost laughed angrily: "Every 10 minutes, how much time do you think I spent?"

"..."

Zhu Xu was dumbfounded.

He could probably guess what the briquettes were thinking, probably because he felt that he didn't get up, so he tried calling every 10 minutes.

But having said that...

"Have you had breakfast yet?"

Zhu Xu quickly grasped the point: "It's almost nine o'clock now, don't tell me you called me early in the morning and didn't eat breakfast?"

"Calball, don't you know that your stomach is very fragile, you can't just mess around?!"

Messi was silent.

He was actually very angry.

Whoever ran to La Masia early in the morning to find his best friend, was going to share with him the excitement of going to the national team for training and representing Argentina in this World Cup, but what he got was the staff saying "your friend yesterday The news that I have already left La Masia" will not make me feel any better!

Especially Messi originally wanted to tell Zhu Xu that he would keep the family tickets for all Argentina games for Zhu Xu. Glory to Argentina.

As a result, he got the news that Zhu Xu had completely left La Masia.

Messi almost exploded on the spot.

When he kept calling Zhu Xu but all he got was the news that the phone was turned off, Messi was so angry that he almost smashed the phone.

If he hadn't seen the sticker specially designed by Zhu Xu on the back of the phone, Messi would have thrown the phone out—it was just a phone, and he could afford it.

But the mobile phone bought with Zhu Xu, and the mobile phone that Zhu Xu carefully prepared a gift on it... Messi is reluctant.

He was angry and couldn't do anything, and the unresolved anger made him hold back until now.

When Zhu Xu answered the phone, his anger was already full, and he was about to make a big move.

As a result, Zhu Xu's first reaction was not to explain, nor was it to beg for mercy.

He asked Messi, have you not had breakfast yet?

Messi's anger miraculously subsided.

"I have already eaten."

When he spoke again, his voice was able to return to calm: "Don't discuss my problem now. Piggy, do you want to explain it to me?"

"It's agreed to come to the first team, how about we play together?"

"I……"

Messi's voice was not high-pitched, and Zhu Xu could hear that he didn't even mean to question.

But his heart ached for it.

The relationship between Messi and him in this world is not the same as in another world.

Zhu Xu in this world appeared beside Messi much earlier than in the other world.

Messi and Zhu Xu are not only the best bad friends who fight and fight each other, and friends who compete with each other and have a delicate friendship, but also confidants.

By chance, Zhu Xu, a teenager from the La Masia youth training camp, met Messi just before dawn.

During that period of time that was not very pleasant for each other, they opened up to each other, walked into each other's most desperate and dark past, and went through the difficult but gradually getting better present together.

Messi completely opened his heart to Zhu Xu.Like a clam shell closed in the deep sea, only in front of Zhu Xu, revealing its soft inner side, allowing him to touch the pearl polished by years and sufferings.

They have many secret agreements that only belong to two people, with youthful publicity and intimacy.

But I was doomed to violate one, and another.

Zhu Xu grinned, but found that he couldn't laugh at all.

"Leo..."

He couldn't come up with the playful, light-hearted title of "briquette," so he replaced it with the familiar term they used a lot when they got along.

"My situation, you know."

"This is my home after all."

Zhu Xu recalled the memories he had obtained, and spoke slowly.

He who has fully accepted this memory has also inherited all the emotions carried by the memory.

For example, he loves his adoptive father, mother, younger siblings deeply, and Hiero Raul Kasiguti, who watched him grow up, has the same deep feelings as him.

The days in La Masia were very happy, and it was a surprise to meet Messi, but here, after all, it is different.

"……I see."

Messi on the other side took a deep breath and said this.

How could he not understand?

The reason why Zhu Xu ran to La Masia, and the bond that Zhu Xu longed for most in his heart, Messi knew very well.

Just like Zhu Xu, he understands the deepest hesitation and fear, weakness and inferiority in his heart.

Because of this, Messi has no way to say another word at all.

Because besides football, he paid more attention to Zhu Xu himself.

"You'll be fine."

"Thanks, Briquette."

Zhu Xu said softly.

Then he didn't wait for Messi to tease him, and immediately began to complain about his father: "Ball, do you know what happened yesterday?!"

"I was hugged by my father and princess! Princess! Lord! Hug!"

"I feel like I've lost all face!"

"And later my father told me that every time he came to Barcelona, ​​he wanted to kiss and hug him, but this is Barcelona's youth training. He was very restrained for the sake of my situation."

"I thought about it and thought it was really scary. Could it be that in the past my dad prepared the princess to hug me or hold me high in front of everyone?"

Macy laughed unceremoniously: "You deserve it, piggy! Who told you to have nothing to do with Mr. Redondo?"

Zhu Xu was not happy: "Biqiu, do you still have any friends to love? Believe it or not, I will hug you in public when I see you next time?"

"come on!"

Messi is laughing wildly because one of them is in Barcelona and the other is in Madrid.

"Hehe, Dad already said that our family will go to South Africa to watch the World Cup this year. Do you think I can see you?"

"Fuck???"

Although it was said that he had planned to meet Zhu Xu in South Africa for a long time, it was still very different for Zhu Xu to tell the news himself!

"That's right. So, have you prepared enough for your family tickets, briquette?"

Zhu Xu was triumphant: "Our family has a lot of people!"

"As long as you come, the ticket is enough!"

Messi patted his chest and assured: "But are you sure...Mr. Redondo doesn't have any other tickets?"

Zhu Xu: "..."

Oh shit.I forgot that my father's social relationship is definitely better than my current self!

Messi only felt that the previous depression was swept away: "I didn't expect that, piggy?"

"In case you forget, this World Cup, I will still remember to write a letter to Ms. Blanca after each match~"

Messi is in a great mood.

Ms. Blanca?What the hell, isn't briquettes his girlfriend Antonella?

Zhu Xugang was a little puzzled, and found the answer in his memory.

The answer made the corner of his mouth twitch.

"Just write it, Miss Lily, just remember not to be robbed of the letter this time and read it aloud in public!"

Messi: ...

"I said it was an accident, an accident!"

"Yes, yes, an accident that makes everyone think that you have a girl you love deeply~"

Zhu Xu gloated: "Look at how good I am? I have never had an accident like yours in my weekly letter to Lady Lily!"

"Oh, I misheard the news about 'Zhu Xu has a mysterious girlfriend named Lily' that was spread by Team B?"

Messi unceremoniously dismantled it.

"It's different, different, okay? Briquettes!"

"I don't see any difference."

Messi smiles.

Zhu Xu thought about it.

"The difference probably lies in the letter I wrote. Only the two of us can know the content, but you wrote... At least one letter is known to everyone?"

Messi: ...

Damn, this is already a pain in my heart, can't I not mention it? !

Zhu Xu was very speechless on the phone.

Very very speechless.

He felt that according to the information in his memory, he and Messi were definitely more than just best friends!

They actually gave each other a girl's name, and agreed to write a letter to each other in the name of this girl's name after every match!

The content of the letter is mainly my summary of the game, some thoughts on the field, and emotional changes after the field...

This was brought up by Messi.

It was about a year and a half ago, after Messi was depressed that it would take a long time to join the team with Zhu Xu, and he couldn't share his feelings with Zhu Xu in the first place, Messi came up with an idea that he thought was very clever.

"Piggy, shall we write to each other?"

"Balball, are you okay, we can meet when we are free, why do we need to write letters?"

Zhu Xu didn't quite understand Messi's logic at the time.

"But after the game..."

"Can I call you as soon as possible after the game?"

"No. Every game is very important to me, no matter whether I win or lose. I hope this feeling can be kept for a little longer."

"Okay."

The young Zhu Xu probably understood Messi's thoughts.

"Then let the letter paper carry this memory, and I will help you preserve it. Similarly, I will also record my feelings like you. Such private letters belong only to you."

He said to Messi.

The idea is very good, but when it is actually implemented...

Well, the contents of the letter began to be varied and weird. Except for the competition, some things that were not easy to say in person, interesting things that I saw suddenly one day, and even embarrassing things at a certain moment were all written by these two people in the letter.

After all, even though the letter was written after the game, there was a delay in giving the other party time, so it was perfectly normal to take it out and add something if there was nothing to do.

In order to keep hidden, the two bored young people also each gave each other an alias.

Zhu Xu jokingly called Messi "Lily", and Messi, not to be outdone, started calling him "Blanca".Later, these two names were used in their respective letters. Later, after a game, Messi just wrote a few lines of nonsense like "I miss you so much what you are doing now". It was robbed and read aloud in public.

So the scandal about "Messi's girlfriend Blanca" was overwhelming for a while.

As for Zhu Xu, of course the members of Team B dare not be presumptuous in front of the captain, but the captain has written a lot of letters, and the curious young people are thinking "Who would use the old-fashioned way of writing letters to communicate these days?" " mentality, boldly peeked at the beginning of the upper left corner.

Lily.

Oh oh oh oh oh!girl!

The team members suddenly realized: the captain made a girlfriend!No wonder you want to do this kind of thing, girls always like romance, it's normal to ask the captain to write a letter!

By the time Zhu Xu found out about the rumors, it was already too late.

And he couldn't explain it either.

How do you explain that Lily is Messi?

Even thinking about it is impossible!

The memory ends.

As a straight man, I feel that this kind of behavior can't be more basic...

Zhu Xu complained silently.

When he finished talking with Messi, he still couldn't calm down.

So he completely ignored the length of the call with Messi: 50 minutes and 46 seconds.

Well, straight men will also compliment their good brothers on the phone...

The author has something to say:

What happened between Zhu Xu and Messi in the past will happen in the future. They have a deep relationship.In addition, there is no need to worry about "this Zhu Xu is not the original Zhu Xu" and "Which Zhu Xu does Messi love?" These questions do not exist, and the specific settings will be written later.

This RG is realistic, but try to sprinkle sugar, don't get too deep into "Can't Dong Ge see Guti's feelings for him?" "How could Natalia not find Guti's wrong, wouldn't she do anything?"" Won't Goody ask for more?" These are the questions, trust me, I have an explanation but you don't want to see it.. just eat sugar!

Messi's psychological changes in this chapter:

Messi:? ? ?Impossible, how could Piggy leave La Masia, we agreed!

Messi: Really gone? !Damn piggy, you are ruthless, I won't contact you this time!

Macy (thinking on the phone): I'm so angry, I don't want to eat breakfast.

Messi: It's the eighth time, and the phone hasn't turned on yet...
