I Am A Second Female Lead - Chapter 81
Two typical weeks have passed by. Ivar didn’t consider calling Sheri, and Liam faithfully keeps on coming.
One day Sheri open her door and there stood Liam with rare flowers. Liam passed Sheri and went inside her private apartment. Sheri’s brow knitted together and sighs.
“Liam I…”
“Shh Bree I know but this time I will make it up to you. I will court you for the rest of my life. Just think about us.” Plead Liam.
Sheri already talked to Liam to stop coming but still, he insists.
Sheri body’s reaction toward Liam is still very strong while Sheri herself felt empty. She can’t help Liam due to the wish of the owner’s body. She is focused on two things, her mission, and her work as a professional goalkeeper.
For two weeks Sheri was busy preparing for the world cup.
She packs her stuff and drives toward the airport where her teammates are waiting.
Sheri sits in a row with Gina, Paula, Freda, Lois in the plane going to Trinidad and Tobago for the event.
On the journey, Sheri can’t stop looking at her phone. At the back of her mind. She is still concerned about Ivar but Ivar never called in almost two weeks also he never messages her. She wanted to call first, but she doesn’t know what to say.
After how many hours of flying. They arrived at their destination and were getting ready for the match.
” Sheri, I expect more of you?” their coach said during their briefing time. Sheri nodded.
The stadium capacity this time 20,000. Sheri can hear so many screams and shouts. This is their first game for this world cup.
The hawk Team gathers in one line and together with the other team, they walked out of the building and went toward the field. They did all the traditional ceremonies, and the game begins.
Sheri and the rest of the team warm up a bit and went to their respective positions. Gina and Paula are well-known strikers and forward.
The referee flings the coin and the ball favors the team for Sheri.
They initiate the game very well. For all most half of the time. All of them were merely passing and chasing and running toward the ball. After a while. The half time is over, and Sheri and the rest of the team went toward their bench and their coach did another briefing. The rest of the team who is not playing where either helping out or handing out some drinks.
This period the game seems to become so critical. The opposite team almost penetrate the defense of the group of Sheri but Lois and Freda immediately defended and was able to capture the ball. The rival team tries to play a dirty game. They made false claims of the team of Sheri. An example was like they were injured but actually it was never or accidentally bumping but actually, it was their trick to deceive the referee to give a penalty toward the Hawk team. On the end, their tricks were reviewed and found out it was nothing.
Both of the team were desperate to get a goal at long last. The last hour of the game, the team of Sheri made a score thanks to Paula.
50 precious seconds more and the ball is stealthily approaching Sheri. The opposite team kicks the ball and luckily the ball went at the edge of the goal post and the team of Sheri was able to go up in the ladder.
Sheri was so focused on the team that she forgot what’s going on of her mission.
On the other side of the world.
Ivar was so wasted inside his grand mansion. Empty cans of beers and liquors are scattered all over his place especially his bedroom. He keeps on recalling her smile, the laughter and how Sheri mȯȧns in his ear.
“What’s wrong with me?”Ivar asked himself while drinking the bottle of liquors. His ȧssistant keeps on coming, but Ivar didn’t open the door even for his mother.
This time his mom arrived with 10 of her bodyguards and forced the door to open. When she opened his mansion. A pungent smell of beers and used alcohol are all over.
His mom instantaneously fears for the worst. She strode fast toward his bedroom and saw his son wasted and drinking a used bottle of strong liquors. Her mom gradually approached him and slowly kneels beside him.
“Mom” Ivar cried and embraced his mother.
“shh. shh.. tell mommy what’s wrong.” his mom said.
“Mom it’s hurt.” Ivar cried bitterly.
“Shh.. It will be okay sweety. You will soon forget him.” His mom said.
“No mom it’s not him, why do I feel hurt about her. Why? I just met her a few weeks ago and yet it’s hurt.” Ivar said toward his mom.
His mom was shocked and gently pulled Ivar away from her and looked at his eyes.
” Who honey, tell mommy the whole story.” His mom gently said.
Ivar recounts everything that happened in recent weeks. How he encounters Sheri, etc. All the time that Ivar is talking. His mom is smiling gently toward him.
“Honey, Your in love instead of sulking here why don’t you for once chased her.” Her mom said.
“You don’t know what will happen. She didn’t say anything that she doesn’t like you. ” His mom said.
Like a bulb that lights up. Ivar opened his eyes, and a hope immerges in him. He immediately stands up and calls the phone of Sheri but Sheri’s phone is off due to she wanted to focus on her game. She doesn’t need any disruption from anyone else. Including Ivar.
Ivar frowned and dialed another number.
“I want you to investigate where Bree is, ” Ivar asked his ȧssistant.
His ȧssistant smile at the end of the phone.
‘She is in Trinidad and Tobago for the world cup. I will email you soon the ticket and the locations of their game.” He’s a big fan of the Hawk. He is gay but loves manly women. They are both like hard at the outside and yet soft on the inside.
He was genuinely admiring Paula for a long time and instantly making her his idol.
After Ivar had properly finished his conversation with his ȧssistant, he looked back at his mom and runs toward her. He embraced her so much.
“Thank you, mom,” Ivar said while tightly embracing her. In no time Ivar fixed himself and went instantly toward the airport with the help of her mom. He is drunk but luckily he is a billionaire, and he can afford to have his own plane by himself.
Ivar sought which hotel they are in. They give him their hotel address and instantly asked to be transferred over there.
In his suit room. He keeps on pacing back and forth thinking how to speak to Sheri, but he cannot come up with any specific words nor ideas.
“Ahh” Ivar scream he is vexed. He was also informed about which room Sheri is. He observed at the side when Sheri walked out of her room and went toward the restaurant.
He makes certain his room is close to the room of Sheri, so he goes back and disguised himself and walked toward the gourmet restaurant where the whole team was having dinner.
