My Goalkeeping System

Chapter 340 Day Off (02)



It didn\'t take long for them to get to the restaurant which didn\'t particularly didn\'t look that impressive from the outside, but once they got inside, the story was different.

They were in a very fancy restaurant, one of the most expensive restaurants.

Anybody could tell that just by looking at the fancy chandeliers hanging here and there, the tables, and the type of people that were there.

After realizing that, Amber had to pull closer to the winger because she was starting to feel uncomfortable.

"Hey, what\'s wrong?" Mateo asked.

"Nothing, it\'s just that this place looks really expensive." She said as she slowly looked around the area.

"Is that what you\'re worried about?" The winger said with a little chuckle.

"Yeah." She replied.

"I understand but I\'m the one taking care of the bills, have you forgotten?"

"Okay, but it\'s not necessary, we could have just gone to one of the moderate restaurants in town." She said.

"You don\'t like it here, oh?" He said before slowly turning away his gaze from her.

"No, it\'s not that I don\'t like it, I just don\'t like having all these rich people looking at me, I didn\'t even dress properly for a place like this." She dressed.

"What\'s wrong with your dress? I think you look okay with it, and as for people looking at you, just don\'t think about it, it\'s something that has to happen." He said before grabbing her hand. "There\'s a free table over there."

He pulled her along with him to the table he saw and left her on that side before walking to the other side to sit there.

"You know, I didn\'t know you liked fancy things and places." She said as they both slowly sat down on their seats.

"No, I don\'t like fancy things, I decided to come here with you because I thought you would like it but I guess that wasn\'t the case. Although, I\'m sure you\'ll like it after today." He expressed.

"Maybe." She muttered before shifting her gaze away from him a little to avoid making eye contact with him.

It didn\'t take long before the waiter pulled up and after making their orders, Mateo turned his gaze back to her.

"You know, I never really thought about it, but you must be really intelligent up there to be able to graduate at the age of eighteen." The winger said.

"Well, when your parents never allow you to leave the house to go do whatever you want, the only thing you can do is stay in the house and study." She said as she lightly tapped her fingers on the table.

"Only thing you did was stay at home and study? That can\'t be true." Mateo said.

"What makes you say that?" She asked after turning her gaze to him.

"I mean the young people of this generation are pretty addicted to their phones although that\'s not exactly for some people, but you had a phone back then, right? So there\'s no way the only thing you did all day long was studying." Mateo expressed.

"That\'s true, but not for someone who gets his smartphone confiscated for twenty hours in a day." She said.

"What?" Mateo said with a confused expression on his face.

"They said I had to work hard to graduate with good grades, get a good job and become the best version of myself." She said,

"So, they take away your phone for almost the whole day and prevent you from going out." The winger said.

"Yeah." She muttered.

"I think that\'s a bit too harsh, my sister didn\'t even have to go through all that and she still managed to graduate just at the age of nineteen." He said.

"I tried to tell them that what they were doing wasn\'t exactly necessary, and it felt like I was starting to get through to my mom but my dad just wouldn\'t budge." She said.

"I never knew you grew up with strict parents." The winger said.

"Yeah, but they weren\'t bad to me in any way, they were just looking out for me which I understand."

"Do you even have any friends over there?"

"Of course, I love making friends, I have three friends in the university, they\'re all older than me which is expected." She expressed.

"Three friends in the university, that\'s nice."

"Yeah, and outside that, I also have another, she\'s the only one I can call my best friend, she\'s very supportive and comes to see me whenever she has the chance, and as a result of that, my parents became pretty comfortable with her coming over."

Their conversation was interrupted as the waiter seemed to have arrived with their food and drinks.

Amber just kept her gaze on him as he helped the waiter put everything on the table with a certain thought running through her mind.

\'Should I ask him about it again? We\'re having such a good time together, this may end up ruining the mood.\'

"Amber."

That call from Mateo was enough to call her back into the real world.

"You\'re spacing out, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I\'m okay." She said before slowly shaking her head.

"Okay, let\'s enjoy our meal then." The winger said before turning his gaze to his food.

"Yeah." She said before she picked up the fork and slowly brought her gaze down.

After about an hour of fighting sponsored by Emma herself, she finally fell asleep on the couch giving Dave the breathing space that he had been asking for.

"She used to be so peaceful." The goalkeeper said with his gaze on her.

<And she still is, she just loves disturbing you>

\'Yeah, I\'ve figured that out.\' He said subconsciously before getting up from the couch. \'I didn\'t even get to watch the match properly because she kept changing the channel, she could have picked up a few things from that match for her job.\'

<I think someone else is dealing with that, you can\'t expect her to work everyday>

\'Yeah, you\'re right.\' He said subconsciously before turning to the door. \'I need to go get some fresh air outside.\'

He made his way to the door and opened it to step out of the house.

As soon as he was outside, he took a deep breath before he stuck both of his hands into his pocket and began to make his way to the garage area.

\'As always, Supreme United are making sure no one catches up to them in the title race, if they win it this season, it\'s going to be the fourth time in a row.\' He said subconsciously before letting out a deep sigh.

<Yeah, they\'re quite unbelievable when it comes to fighting for the League title but you should look on the bright side>

\'Huh?\'

<You guys are considered to be in the title race along with Dynamo and Supreme, the season is just starting and there\'s a chance that you guys can do it, but whatever happens, you guys should be happy with a champions league spot because it\'s been a while>

\'Yeah, winning the league with Unique FC is something I would love to see happen but I think getting a champions league spot will also make the fabs happy.\'

<Yeah, exactly>

\'I know we beat them in the charity match but we\'ll be facing them after Ronino FC and I don\'t have a very good feeling about that match.\'
