CHAPTER 43: END OF GROUP STAGE
That morning, all players are having their final training before their match against Scotland. Later on, Danny walked around the city with his cousins.
"Seriously, why must I be here with you girls?" asked Danny.
"Because you're our only brother that left here in London" replied Toni.
"That's true. All our brothers are in Manila for AFF Cup after all" said Helena then.
"That's right. If they're here, we'll drag them too for sure" said Amanda.
"Why must you do that?" asked Danny.
"Well, why not? Family first, remember?" asked Toni in returned.
"That's true. You spent most of your free time with Tooney nowadays. Why don't spare some for us; your sisters?" said Helena then.
"Sorry for that" replied Danny. Then, suddenly, he came across Haller.
"Why are you here? You are not welcome here" said Haller.
"This my nation. I can go wherever I want to. Why the hell are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in Munich and Budapest for.... Oh, sorry. Just remember that you're not qualify to play in Euro" replied Danny.
"Try to act tough in front of your cousins, Quinn?" asked Haller.
"Acting tough? Me? If I remember correctly, I'm the one that beat your arse here in London while you just did nothing. Am I right?" asked Danny in returned.
"Are you asking for a fight right now?" asked Haller.
"Not really? Are you?" asked Danny in returned. Haller then just walked away. Once Haller no longer there, Toni knocked Danny's head.
"Ouch. What is that for?" asked Danny.
"For pick a fight with him here on public" replied Toni.
"He started it first" said Danny.
"You can just ignore him" replied Helena.
"That's boring" said Danny causing Toni to kick his leg.
"You deserved it" said Amanda.
"Why all my sisters are so rascal?" said Danny. The girls just giggled.
"But, still. I'm glad seeing you happy with Tooney" said Helena.
"Thanks, Helena. Never thought that I still can fall in love after what happened with Courtney" replied Danny.
"C'mon, bro. You deserved to be happy too" said Amanda.
"That's true" said Toni.
"Thanks for having my back all this time. Really appreciate it" replied Danny.
"C'mon, bro. We're family, remember?" asked Helena.
"That's true" replied Danny.
On the next day;
Danny is sitting with his cousins and Ella at the spectators' seats as he's not playing that day.
"It's good to have a break off the pitch sometimes" said Danny.
"Yeah, right. You only say that because you're with Tooney here" replied Helena.
"So, what? Having my girlfriend with me is technically a break too, right babe?" asked Danny before kissed Ella's cheek.
"That's right" replied Ella while leaned her head on Danny's chest while Danny wrapped his arm around Ella's shoulder.
"We just lose a brother, right" said Amanda.
"Yeah. I thought that we are having a new sister, but it seems that one of our brother is gone" replied Helena.
"May his soul rest in peace" said Toni.
"Hey, I'm not dead yet" replied Danny.
"Yeah. But your feeling towards us, your sisters is dead after you date Tooney" said Helena.
"That's true. The only left is memories" said Amanda then.
"Can all of you please not being so dramatic?" asked Danny. The girls just giggled.

DannyQuinn7 the team give me a day off today. So, what is the better way other than spending time with the queen of my heart; @ellatoone ❤️❤️
