妻子的外遇

"Wait, so you\'re not twins?" Amber said with that confused expression still on her face.

"Yeah, I told you about Emilia, have you forgotten?" Emma said.

"Yeah, I remember but you two just look the same apart from the hair and eyes, are you sure there wasn\'t a mistake somewhere?"

"Huh?"

"It\'s nothing," Amber said with a feigned smile before shaking her head.

"How did you know we moved here?" Emma asked.

"Um… there was news about it online and since you told me to come see you as soon as I came back, I decided to see if it was true for myself." She explained. "And I guess it was." She added as she slowly looked around the area.

"Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about that, well then come inside."

Before following Emma who had already made her way inside, Amber turned her gaze to Emilia who was still standing there.

"I just wanted to say, it\'s nice to meet you, Miss Emilia, you\'re not married, right?"

"No, I\'m not married but you can just call me Emilia."

"Oh, okay." She said with a nod.

Amber walked in together with Emilia and while everyone else saw them walk in, Mateo was still too busy talking with his mother.

Emma had gone upstairs to get her laptop and was coming down with it now.

"Hey, Amber this way." She said as she walked past Mateo to get to the dining area.

There was no way the winger wasn\'t going to hear that and just as he turned his gaze to the right, he saw Amber making her way to him.

\'I forgot she was coming back today.\'

"Hey." She muttered with a little wave as soon as they made eye contact before turning to the left to get to the dining area where Emma was waiting for her.

"Who\'s she?"

Mateo was quite startled by the voice of his mother as he turned his gaze to her.

"Um…. she\'s just a friend." He replied.

"Just a friend? Isn\'t that the girl Amber that your sister told me…."

In the middle of her speech, Martha realized that she wasn\'t supposed to disclose that to anyone especially Mateo, so she quickly closed her mouth.

"What? What did Emma say?"

"Oh, it\'s nothing important, she was just telling me about her work with her, it\'s something that will bore you." She replied.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

He knew that wasn\'t what she wanted to say but either way, he knew he wouldn\'t be able to get it out of her no matter how hard he tried, if it was his dad then it would be a different situation.

"Okay." He said before letting out a sigh.

Things started up as soon as Merino got there.

Minino made sure to crank things up a bit with the drinks and music and after a while, they went to the swimming pool area to hang out.

Well, all of them except Mateo who wanted to shake out the fuzzy feeling he was getting on his head before heading out.

While he was still sitting there quietly Amber who was on her way out popped up in front of him and decided to sit down beside him.

She had been with Emma and Emilia all this time and had not gotten the time to meet him until now.

"Hey, how was your break?" Mateo asked as soon as she sat down beside him.

Emma and Emilia who were sitting in the dining area talking about something now had their gaze on them.

"It was okay, I got the rest I wanted."

"And your parents?"

"They\'re doing fine."

"Okay, that\'s cool." He said with a nod.

After saying that, she slowly leaned closer to him with a questioning look on her face.

"What?" He asked before moving back from her a little.

"You\'re not going to ask about your girlfriend?"

"Who\'s my girlfriend? Are you talking about, Sofia?"

"Who else would I be talking about?" Amber said with a straight face before slowly returning to her normal position.

"Well, she\'s not my girlfriend and I know she\'s okay because we…."

"Spoke this morning."

He didn\'t want to finish that but she helped him finish it either way.

"How did you….?"

"We were together duh."

"Oh, that makes sense."

She let out a sigh before opening her bag to get something.

"Anyway, she said I should give you this." She said before giving him a black bracelet with little strokes of orange.

"Oh, a bracelet." The winger said after taking the bracelet from her. "It looks um….nice."

"Yeah, and I guess I should get going now, but before that." She said before suddenly leaning closer to him.

"Huh?"

"I don\'t want to but let\'s say I wanted to give you a peck on the cheek now, what\'s your thought on that?" She asked.

"My thoughts on that? That\'s a strange question but I guess a peck never hurts anyone." He replied.

"Oh, so that\'s your answer." She said before pecking him on the cheek.

After that, she quickly moved away from him and got up from the couch.

"I thought you said you didn\'t want to."

"I changed my mind." She said before turning to the door. "I\'ll see you tomorrow then."

Mateo kept her gaze on her until she was out of the house and after that, he turned his gaze to the dining area as both Emma and Emilia turned away pretending that they weren\'t looking.

"I know you two were looking."

After that day, the players went back to work, they didn\'t have any Europa Conference League matches this week but they had two League matches to make up for the ones they missed last week.

They were back in third place now because they were two games behind Dynamo FC who were now in second place just one point behind Supreme United because they were also two games behind.

Unique FC had to win both of their upcoming games to make sure they would get back in second place or even take the lead depending on how Supreme United\'s matches turn out.

Sure, a win and a draw would still put them ahead of Dynamo FC because they had a higher goal difference despite being two games down, but they needed to win these two games against two mid-table teams.

Their first match was going to be away from home against Losoeno FC away from home and the second one was going to be against Zetoro United also away from home.

They were obviously the favorites to win both matches but as everyone who watches football knows, anything can happen in a match, and that was the reason why Norman didn\'t plan on underestimating any of them.

Tuesday came by pretty fast, the day Unique FC traveled to Lospeno to face off against Lospeno FC.

The match started in quite an unexpected way with Lospeno FC almost shocking Unique FC with an early opener.

Luckily for the Uniques, Dave was able to guess where he was going to put the ball but he could only slow the ball down for Roland to get to it and send it as far away from the goalpost as possible.

Lospeno FC surprisingly dominated that match for a while as Unique FC were struggling to get a solid foot on the ground.

It was only until the twelfth minute did the guest side decide to show what they could do.

Right from that minute, Lospeno FC\'s ball possession began to drop until they were only down to nineteen percent, and after that, it didn\'t take long before Unique FC started sending in the goals.

Lospeno FC just lost grip of the game in the first half but their fans expected them to come back in the second half.

Well, that didn\'t happen as Unique FC kept on dominating the game leaving them with as little as twenty-two percent ball possession.

The match started off with Dave making a close save but so far, the goalkeeper was just chilling at his goalpost. He was helping out with the attack a bit but he was mostly chilling back there.

It didn\'t take long before Lospeno FC conceded more and more goals and just as the referee blew his whistle, Dave looked up at the scoreboard to see four on their side and zero on their opponent\'s side.

It was an easy victory for Unique FC and as expected Mateo was given the man of the match award despite not scoring a single goal in the match.

He didn\'t score but he was the key to Unique FC\'s victory, he assisted Roland, Ferran, Minino, and Fred to give his team this four-goal victory and was the main key for penetrating their defense so it was well deserved.

Dave almost scored from the goalpost with a chance he got but the goalkeeper was fast enough to send it over the bar.

He was happy though, because they won the match and he finally got it done after failing two times in a row.
