God Of football - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Who called?

Chapter 54: Who called?

Izan napped a bit and was only woken up by the sound of the lock opening.

Hori and Komi had arrived with Miranda following behind them.

“Hello, Izan” she said making herself at home.

“Hello Miranda,how have you been?” Izan asked.

“I’ve been great but you know what’s greater?” she asked looking at Izan who raised an eyebrow.

“The news I’ve got for you”.

“Okay let’s hear it then” Izan said.

From the way Miranda was looking at him it seemed the latter wanted him to say this but the reply made Izan confused.

“No not yet, I haven’t eaten all day because of this.

I need to eat first ” she said tracing her eyes to the kitchen.

Komi had started cooking as soon as she entered the house and was nearly done.

“Go and bath you stink” Komi said after she saw Miranda bullying her son.

“I don’t think so.

Here smell it” Miranda said showing her armpit to Komi after she had gotten near her.

“Uh,please go back,don’t contaminate the food before it is even done” Komi said with a smile before shoving Miranda a bit.

Miranda slapped Komi on the ass inciting a small moan from Komi’s mouth before going up to use the guest bathroom.

After washing,Miranda took over allowing Komi to go and take a bath.

Following this,forks struck and scratched plate as hands went near mouths.

Miranda went for a second filling after her first but could not finish it.

In all honesty she had done well since she was almost done with the second part before giving up.

After the dinner Hori sat on the couch watching TV,away from where Izan, Komi and Miranda sat.

She knew what they were about to discuss and didn’t want to be apart of all the gibberish the would talk.

Izan could cope at the very least but he too would likely not join if the conversation wasn’t about him.

“I would want to stall some more but I don’t to get beaten by your mother, Miranda said to Izan.

Komi just snorted and looked away.

“Okay Izan,First of all good showing in the first 2 matches of the season.

A situation like yours has never happened in football ” she said waiting a bit for her words to set in before she continued.

“A situation where a kid who’s not yet sixteen, had such presence in a team.

2 games in and you already have 2 goals and 2 assists” Miranda said like a reporter.

“This puts you 3rd on the pichi chi list and 1st on the assist.

Ultimately your performances wouldn’t go for naught as you have caught the attention of many teams,both in and outside of Spain.” “But because of your plans to stay at Valencia at least until you’re 17, I’ve shunned them.

Valencia are now having it tough as they drive away interested parties”.

Izan sat there listening to Miranda.

He already knew of the interest of other teams in him but what was the news Miranda wanted to talk about.

Well,he just had to keep listening.

“Well,anybody playing like how you’re playing would draw attention from not only teams but brands also”.

“Coupled with your handsome face and those blue eyes,some brands just can’t get resist you temptation” She said whiles cupping Izan’s face in her hands.

“Well what did you expect,he got it from me” Komi said with a smug expression.

“Yeah,yeah, good genes though” Miranda spoke to which Komi replied with a curt ‘Thank you’ .

“So what are we talking here” Komi asked again.

“Well this afternoon I got a call from Adidas.Their sponsorship director wanted to discuss a possible cooperation with Izan.

They wanted to talk about you as a brand ” Miranda relaxed after saying this waiting for it to sink in.

For a moment,no one spoke.

They all just sat there nodding their head.

Before a shrill voice said.

“Wait,who called” Hori who was sitting on the couch suddenly crawled to the dinner table.

“Adidas” Miranda said once more.

Izan was shocked to say the least.

“Really, thats wonderful ” Komi said after a while.

“But I haven’t made much of an impact ” Izan said underestimating his value.

“From the way you’re playing darling, I’m pretty sure they would want to snag you up before Nike does” Miranda said.

Adidas in recent years have lost opportunities because of their indecisiveness.

Young players such as Mbappé and Haaland all went to Nike because Adidas couldn’t afford them.

Sure they had Messi but Nike also had Cristiano Ronaldo.

Nike had gotten those who would carry the torch after Ronaldo but who had Adidas gotten.

Even Puma,Mizuno and a few other brands had prospective players to carry on the torch.

So it was pretty evident they were trying to get Izan before anyone did and Miranda knew that this would help them in negotiating a better deal for Izan.

“Although,I’ve said this, nothing is finalised yet so don’t say anything to anyone okay” Miranda said strictly.

“That goes to both of you” she said with a stiff face making Hori jump onto Komi’s lap.

This action got the house filled with laughs.

Izan was still in a bit of a daze.

“Wow, its really Adidas” he thought.

Miranda had already decided to stay over and soon enough the house drifted into silence as Hori,Komi and Miranda slept.

Izan on the other hand was still awake.

The news, to him still sounded like sweet music on a Sunday.

He tossed and turned but still couldn’t sleep.

At that instant he got a message.

Livia: You awake.

Izan looked at his phone and didn’t even know when he started smiling.

Olivia on the other hand too didn’t even know when she had started smiling.

Izan: I’m still alive.

Livia: What do you mean you’re still alive.

Did you ever die.

Izan: I am just joking.

Livia: I know.

Izan: I want to hear your voice ,can I call?

After Izan sent this message,Olivia didn’t reply for a few minutes.

Izan thought maybe she was tired and wanted to sleep so he also turned to sleep but then his phone started vibrating.

Olivia’s name was displayed as the caller Id.

Izan immediately picked up the phone.

“Hey liv” Izan said to which Olivia replied “Hey Izan”.

The two confused people talked about random things for a while moving from topic to topic.

Izan never failed to make Olivia laugh as the latter never knew about Izan’s sense of humor.

“So where do you see us going” Olivia said after a while.

“Well Ibiza’s fine and I don’t mind Monaco too” Izan said making her laugh again.

“Come on,You know that’s not what I meant” Olivia said before adding.

“What are we”.

“Well we’re friends” Izan said halting a bit.

A depressed “oh” came from Olivia.

After hearing her depressed ‘oh’, Izan smiled before continuing.

“But we could be so much more”.

Izan heard a giggle from Olivia after he spoke.

” I like you,you know” Olivia said.

“I know and I Like you too” Izan responded.

“Also I want a sugar mommy so..” Izan said.

“Go away ” Olivia said as she laughed.

“Okay liv,its late and I don’t want to be the reason you spoil your perfect attendance record” Izan said.

“Wait how do you know” Olivia said with a surprised voice.

“I know all about you” Izan said in a creepy voice making Olivia laugh.”Goodnight” Izan said.

“Goodnight,Miura” Olivia said before ending the call.

Izan smiled as he took the phone from his ear.

Before he could lie down,he heard his notification sound.

He looked at his phone and saw a message from Olivia but all it read was ‘143’ .

Izan wasn’t a person who used many abbreviations or any numerical constructions.

He tried to make sense of it but couldn’t and what do we all do when you can’t understand, just ‘google’ He simply googled the meaning and smiled when he saw the results.

Izan after seeing what the numbers meant sent it back to Olivia.

Olivia who was also waiting for the same message smiled when she saw what Izan had sent.

The two sweethearts after this drifted off into slumberland.

Valerie who was listening in on the call between Olivia and Izan couldn’t help but smile after they finished talking.

“That wasn’t so hard was it” she muttered.

“Damn I need a boyfriend ” she said.

It seemed some urges had stirred up in her after listening in on the call between the childhood sweethearts.

Izan woke up the next day feeling refreshed,he had completed his task early in the morning and after bathing decided to sleep some more.

It would be almost a week before they played their next match and they had gotten two days off.

By the time Izan got down, Miranda and Komi had already left.

Hori too had left for school and he could sense a foreboding feeling.

School was approaching.

Yeah even if he was a top student,Izan never really enjoyed school.

Nobody did.

Like the rest of us he was just passing through,albeit he did exceptionally better than others.

*sigh*, ” In due time, in due time” he said before jumping onto the couch to continue his show from where he left yesterday A/n : Hello guys.
