I wanted so much to ask him to fu** off… But I didn’t want to get scolded by mom once again… So I just gave him a deadly stare…
But he smiled so innocently at me like he is the most genuine person on the Earth…
“I need to go now, Mr. Anderson… Have some research work to do…” then Mr. Patterson said, standing up.
“It is so nice to meet you two…” he then said, shaking hands with my mom and dad…
“Mr. Patterson, you must come to have dinner with us someday… You know I can cook really well…” Mom said, shaking his hand…
Oh, really, mom? When is the last day you cooked? Can you at least remember that?
Anyway, my mom suits to Mr. Patterson perfectly… They both are so wily….
“Sarah… Please walk Mr. Patterson to his car…” dad ordered me…
Without saying anything, I followed him to his car…
Before getting to his car, he turned to me and looked at my face… Then he smiled… It was purely a wicked smile…
“Your parents are so easy to manipulate, Sarah… I don’t know how you and your brother got this tough when you have such innocent parents…” he said sarcastically.
“What do you want, Mr. Patterson… Why don’t you let us stay in peace?” I asked.
“You know exactly what I want Sarah… I want revenge, and I am getting it one way or the other…” he said in a firm voice…
“Jake or anyone in his family has nothing to do with the tragic destiny you have, Mr. Patterson… Why can’t you just understand that? “I asked.
“You are brainwashed by him, Sarah… So there is no point in discussing these with you… But I am sure one day you will understand that I am right…” he said.
“That type of day will never come, Mr. Patterson… Remember well, I will never let you do any harm to my Jake until I am alive…” I said in a confident voice. “Really?” he laughed, looking at me.
“Let’s see about that, Sarah… Who knows what will happen?” he said, getting on to his car.
“See you tomorrow, my angel…” he said, as he drove off from our garden…
God! I wanted to pick a stone and throw it at his fu**ing car…
*******
Jake called me at night… I was so careful not to mention Mr. Patterson’s visit to our house. I even asked Shane not to say anything to Jake or Luke… Tomorrow is a big day for Jake, and I wanted him to keep his full focus on the match… I will tell him everything after the match…
*************
The next day, I and Sally were waiting among other spectators until the match begins… Both mom and dad also came to see the finals, but they didn’t sit with me, fortunately… The pavilion was filled with supporters and media people…
Right before the two teams entered the ground, a special announcement was given…
“Good afternoon, everyone… Today we have a very special guest… Please, welcome, Mr. Victor McMiller…”
I got really panicked as soon as I heard his name and looked at the main pavilion… It was not just him… Jake’s mom and Marina were also with him…
They all have come to watch the finals… Marina was holding a board that has Jake’s name on it…
“Jake’s fianc? looks even more beautiful in person… She is one hell of a lucky girl… ” the girls who were around me were talking, pointing at gorgeous Marina…
What they told is true… She was wearing a denim trouser and our football team’s t-shirt… She looks so beautiful even in that simple outfit… Also, she is very lucky too… She has everything she needs…
I felt sad, not because she has everything when I don’t have anything… I felt sad because Jake didn’t tell me they are coming for the match. Why Jake didn’t tell me that? He called me today morning as well, but he didn’t mention anything about his parents and Marina coming to the match. Didn’t he promise me to tell me everything?
I felt a vibration inside my pocket. My phone was ringing… It was an unknown number…
I answered the phone, thinking who might be that…
“Sarah…” when Jake’s voice came from the other side, I got really surprised.
How the hell he calls me now? They are supposed to come to the ground right now…
Has some emergency happened? My heart started to thump like crazy.
“Is everything okay…” I asked in a shaken voice…
“I didn’t know they were coming, Sarah… They didn’t tell me at all… If I knew I would have definitely told you…” he said in a hurry…
God! Did he really call me to say that? Jake, you are such a fool…
“That’s okay… Don’t worry about that at all… You have to focus on the match…” I said quickly.
“I was so afraid when I saw them… I know you would get sad… How can I focus on anything when I know you are sad, my princess… That’s why I took a call from the coach’s phone…” he said.
“Don’t worry… Now everything is okay… I am not sad… I want to see you win more than anything… Make me proud…” I said… I wanted so badly to give him a kiss too, but I am among so many spectators… I had to behave…
“Okay, my love… I will make you proud…” he said in a satisfied voice…
The game started…
Both teams were on their best form. Therefore this won’t be an easy win… Whoever wins this, they have to put their best today, not just that, they need luck on their side as well…
Praying God from all my heart for our team’s victory, I was watching the match… This is the day they all were waiting for… I was praying most especially for Jake, Luke, and Shane… Both Jake and Luke are among the highest goal takers while Shane is among the top goalkeepers. So they all have to put their very best today and win this…
The game was so intense from the beginning… I didn’t even remember about Marina or Jake’s parents avant or a second because my focus was totally on the game…
Even when we reach the end of the first half, none of the teams were able to score a goal… However, right before the first half of the match ended, on the 44th minute, Luke scored a goal!!!
It was indeed a brilliant kick… I think the opposite team’s goalkeeper didn’t even have enough time to
Both me and Sally screamed with happiness, hugging each other…
Did I say, she is still not over of Luke… Poor Sally has tried a lot, but her heart still belongs to him…
out how it went into the goal…
