God Of football - Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Family Outing.

Chapter 95: Family Outing.

The team bus, emblazoned with the iconic Valencia crest, glided into the dimly lit parking lot of the Ciudad Deportiva de Paterna, its headlights slicing through the shadows of the late hour.

After a brief moment that felt like an eternity, the engine’s roar fell silent, replaced by the rhythmic chirping of night insects.

Izan, who had been engrossed in text conversations with Olivia, finally stood up, stretching his limbs as if shaking off the fatigue that clung to the other players like a heavy blanket.

One by one, the players shuffled off the bus, their movements slow and deliberate.

It was 1 am, and the weariness hung thick in the air, evident in their slumped shoulders and heavy eyes.

The match against Atlético had been a gruelling test, draining every ounce of energy from them, leaving only echoes of their earlier enthusiasm.

However, Izan, having taken a conditioning pill during the journey, appeared remarkably unscathed.

His vibrant energy contrasted sharply with his teammates, many of whom cast him curious glances, their expressions a mixture of disbelief and admiration.

He looked as if he hadn’t just faced one of the toughest teams in world football but rather had just stepped off the bus for an evening stroll.

“Leave him be, he’s still young,” Pietro chimed in, stifling a yawn that showcased his fatigue.

In previous seasons, such a comment might have sparked irritation among the players, but tonight, Izan’s resilience only deepened their astonishment.

With his back turned to his teammates, Izan felt the familiar buzz of his phone vibrating insistently in his pocket.

“Mom?” he wondered, curiosity piquing as he glanced at the caller ID.

“Where are you, Miura?

I can’t see you in the parking lot,” Komi’s voice echoed through the receiver as Izan answered, the warmth of concern evident in her tone.

“I’m coming out mum.

We are at the other lot at the Deportiva while you are at the public one” Izan said, a smile displayed on his face.

“Okay then, come out soon,” Komi said before hanging up.

Izan turned to his teammates and told them about his mother before leaving for the public lot after telling Moreno.

“Ah Miura, Hurry up, it’s cold”, Komi said, taking a thick jacket and throwing it at Izan.

“Thanks, mum,” Izan said while catching the thrown jacket.

Komi smiled slightly before entering the Car.

Izan followed suit and entered the car.

The two sat in silence but Izan soon drifted to sleep again.

Komi looked over at her son and smiled before focusing on the road once more.

[A lot of smiling going on].

As the horizon began to brighten, the sun slowly emerged, casting a warm golden hue over the landscape and awakening the world from its slumber.

Waking up, Izan felt a bit tired.

Although the conditioning pill had brought him some relief, the kicks he had received from the Atlético players to his body and legs made them ache.

Izan freshened up a bit before going out to complete his task for the day.

“Catch,” Komi said as she threw Izan a bottle of milk as soon as the latter walked in.

Izan took the bottle on his chest before catching it with his hand.

Komi, who saw his little trick, put left and right together and started clapping.

“My little superstar.

You were tired yesterday, so I didn’t get to fan girl over you,” Komi said, wrapping her hands around her shoulders while smiling.

Izan, who couldn’t handle his mother this morning, drank the milk before kicking the bottle into the bin, but this action made Komi exaggerate her actions further.

Izan quickly went up to his room and washed up before falling back to his bed.

Back downstairs, Komi, who was walking around, found the house a bit dull.

“Should I buy a cat?”, she thought before shaking her head once she thought of the responsibilities.

“I can’t.

Let me just need to focus on these two kittens of mine” Komi muttered before proceeding to the kitchen.

….

Izan, who had finally completed his sleep, woke up an hour later.

He put on some warm clothing and walked downstairs.

The sound of oil sizzling brought up his appetite.

“You done mum?” Izan asked as he came down the flight of stairs “Grab some fruits first; I won’t be long!” With a burst of energy, Izan flung open the fridge door, a rainbow of colours flooding his vision.

He snatched some shiny apples, their crisp surfaces gleaming under the light, and joyfully tossed a handful of blueberries into his mouth, their sweet explosion dancing on his taste buds.

It was a delicious start to his day.

Hori, who had just woken up from her sleep, came down with her hair ruffled like a dry-blown racoon.

“Good morning, dear”, Komi said to her daughter, who pulled a chair at the table and sat down.

The trio sat down and indulged in their breakfast of toasted bread baguettes, with some poached eggs and a glass of juice.

Komi opted for coffee since she saw it as the more mature choice.

“What do you guys want to do for today” Komi asked as she finished her cup.

“I’ll just follow you two if you decide to do something”, Izan said, throwing the ball in the corner of the two women.

“Okay, then I’ll plan it.

Go up and get ready” Komi said before sending the dishes to the kitchen.

Hori stood up and went to her room leaving Izan alone.

Izan took his phone e out and played with it for a few minutes before going up to change his clothes.

A few minutes later, Izan came down wearing a loose-fitting white shirt with a denim jacket over it.

He paired this with matching denim trousers and a pair of white Adidas sneakers he had gotten as a souvenir after his deal with the company.

Both Komi and Hori also came down looking the part.

The family of three stepped out of their house, eager to begin the day.

A trip around Alboraya, Valencia, was a journey through a vibrant blend of history, natural beauty, and local charm.

Known for its traditional horchata, stunning coastal views, and rich culture, Alboraya offers an unforgettable experience for visitors.

Izan and his family started the day in the heart of Alboraya by visiting a local horchatería to savour the town’s signature drink, horchata de chufa.

These were paired with fartons, soft and sweet pastries perfect for dipping.

Popular spots like Horchatería Daniel provide an authentic taste of this regional delight.

Strolling through the town, they encountered narrow cobblestone streets, traditional Valencian houses with colourful facades, and charming plazas.

At midday, the trio ventured into Alboraya’s Huerta, the lush agricultural fields that surrounded the town.

They took a bike along the trails to enjoy the peaceful scenery of fertile lands dotted with chufa (tiger nut) crops, orange groves, and vegetable gardens.

The rural charm was complemented by the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea in the distance.

Izan encountered a few fans who recognised him.

The fans asked for some autographs and Pictures to which Izan complied.

Hori and Komi stood there looking at Izan who went about this routine with the grace of a seasoned actor.

“Now you’re starting to look like a star,” Hori said as Izan approached.

Izan smiled at her words before urging them to continue.

The fans who took the pictures with Izan shared them on their social media which drew a bit of traction from the groups.

“Oh, that’s Izan.

Where are you right now” “Damn, he looks good”.

“He looks handsome.

Am I supposed to know him?” “He is the rising star of our Valencia team who scored a hat-trick against Atlético yesterday”.

“And here my dumbass thought he was one of those actors”.

The pictures seemed to circulate while the person in question enjoyed his day in oblivion.

In the afternoon, the trio went to the coastal area of Port Saplaya, often referred to as “Little Venice” for its picturesque canals and colourful waterfront buildings.

They enjoyed a leisurely lunch at one of the seaside restaurants, feasting on fresh seafood, paella, and tapas while admiring the marina.

Afterwards, they took a stroll along the beach and relaxed under the sun.

“I’m tired,”, Hori said while taking a seat on a bench nearby.

“I think you should start exercising with Izan.

“If I’m not tired, how are you, young lady?” Komi said with a slight smirk.

Hori waved her off and continued resting.

“Let’s finish the trip and go home, okay,” Komi said while looking at Izan and Hori.

Izan, who was on his phone, nodded at her.

Hori followed suit and stood up as the trip resumed.

They wrapped up the trip with a short journey to Albufera Natural Park, a serene retreat just a few kilometres away.

Seeing the boats on the lagoon, Hori pressured Komi, who didn’t like boats, into getting on.

Izan agreed with Hori on this one so he helped her convince their mother.

Komi finally gave in.

Although she was a bit uncomfortable, she couldn’t back down now as her kids were having fun.

They boarded a traditional albuferenc boat for a guided tour of the lagoon, where they witnessed flocks of birds and a breathtaking sunset over the water.

Komi, who was restless at first, found herself enjoying the row down the lagoon.

The peaceful ambience and golden hues create the perfect ending to the day.

The trio finally got off the boat ending their trip.

They had enjoyed Alboraya, which, with its blend of culinary treasures, scenic landscapes, and cultural richness, had offered a delightful escape that captured the essence of Valencia.
