CHAPTER 17: WELCOME TO ANFIELD
A/N: I might started to use Portuguese everytime Brazilian talked with each other. I'll using Google Translate, so it might not being accurate.
It has been 7 weeks Harry being part of Leicester City. He had scored 10 goals in the league, with just 1 goal behind Millwall's captain; Hariz Eagles. That weekend; they will face Liverpool at Anfield.
"For your first season, you're doing well so far, Harry" said Vardy.
"That's true. Brazilian must be relieved so much that you chose to play for Brazil instead of Scotland" said Chillwell then.
"Thanks but still. I have a long way to go" replied Harry.
"Of course you are. You're still young after all" said Vardy.
"So, did you got another call-up for Brazil in the next friendly match?" asked Chillwell.
"Not yet. Maybe they don't need me though. Neymar is back after all" replied Harry.
"Yeah, but still. It will be such a waste if you're not being called up" said Vardy.
"Well, it's Tite's decision to call me or not. Not mine" replied Harry.
"Yes, but I'm telling you this, mate. If he didn't called you up, he might be crazy. You're on-form here in Premier League despite just arrived. Most players will need more time to adapt" said Chillwell.
"Ben's right, boi. Just need to trust yourself more" replied Vardy. Harry just nodded.
Later on;
Harry is at home when he got a FaceTime request from Tegan which he quickly accepted it.
Harry: Hey, there. How you're doing?
Tegan: I'm good. What about you?
Harry: I'm fine. So, why FaceTime at the time like this?
Tegan: Well, I feel bored. So, what's a better thing to do than FaceTime with you?
Harry: Oh, really Steff? Maybe I should do the same to you, then.
Tegan: You can't.
Harry: Eh, why?
Tegan: Because I did it first. So, you can't just copy me.
Harry: Whatever. So, how's NXT UK so far? Is there anyone bullying you?
Tegan: It's great. What about you in Leicester?
Harry: Things good so far. With a great teammates like what I have now.
Tegan: That's good to hear. By the way, Brazil will played against Wales next week, right?
Harry: That's true.
Tegan: Will you play?
Harry: Well, I don't know. Besides, Neymar is back after all.
Tegan: So, what? He's a winger. You are the central forward. I'm sure you will be played.
Harry: Doesn't matter. So, will you come and watch?
Tegan: Well, I have a free time that time. So, I'll go and support my Wales National Team.
Harry: Just don't accidentally cheer when I score.
Tegan: Huh, that will never happened. By the way, I need to go now. Let's meet up next week.
Harry: Okay, Steff. Bye. Take care.
Tegan: You too. Bye.
Then, they both hung up.
