"Assurance"

President Salvatore after the exit of Valentino just goes to the window of his office and see Paulo. He was deeply concerned about him because he is having a fear that if Valentino get to know about Paulo's immense talent he will surely try his best to take him away from his club by offering him a lucrative contract just like Valentino did before with the academy players of the club and Salvatore does not wanna loose the best player of his club.

"I want to give Paulo a contract right after his game against A.F Bologna get it ready, start it's procedure, start negotiations and keep in mind, nobody literally NOBODY ! nor press nor Italian media nor scouts get know about Paulo alright. You have to make sure that this guy should stay right in this club". Salvatore commands to his secretary.

Meanwhile at the ground Paulo and Fabio are doing their passing practice together. Fabio formally asked Paulo to tell something about his family.

"My father Fabian Romani runs a small family restaurant in Calcio, my mother Kesi is a loving housewife and my elder sister Cara is doing her masters in arts" Paulo said.

Paulo told Fabio about his family, after then he also asked Fabio to tell something about his family.

"My mother is working as a nurse in a hospital back in Bilbao, Spain. She mortgaged our house for my dreams of becoming a footballer. When it was not working well for me in Spain, She also sold her only gold pendant to send me here in Italy, She knew Ale Piola before so she arranged a trail for me at Parma C.F and I luckily got selected but however my performance wasn't extraordinary like you". Fabio said.

"What about your father huh ?" Paulo asked Fabio.

Fabio with low voice

"He left me and my mother for another women, I was just Five years old at that time. He never came back to see me and mother after he left us but yeah, somewhere around my neighbourhood I heard that my father married the women for whom he left me and my mother and having two kids with her and he even refuse to recognize my mother infront of his family". Fabio said.

Fabio got emotional, his eyes get full of tears but somehow trying to stop his tears running down to his cheeks by wipping them away. He remember how his mother struggles she faced to raise him and did everything to follow his passion.

Paulo understands his sadness,he just kicks the ball away, hugged his friend and told him not be sad because he is always there for him whenever he needs him.

Both Paulo and Fabio are sitting at side of the training ground, they get to know more about each other.

"My mother did a lot for me, She never complained me for anything, all she wanted is to put smile on my face, She never shown that how much pain she's going through sometimes she even not eaten at night so that I do not sleep hungry. I just want her to be happy again, I just want to give her everything". Fabio said.

"Have you forgiven your father ?". Paulo asked.

"I am surprised you asked this question. No, never I'll never forgive him for what he did to my mother. I want to make him regret that's why I want to become a fomous football player and win many, so many trophies as much as possible so he and his family would see me on their television, as the headlines in morning newspaper and on the billboards of every street in Spain so that whenever he see my face he will get remind of what he did to my mother". Fabio said.

"Will you win your first major title ever ?". Paulo asked.

"Yeah this upcoming season ! because I'll have you by my side as my new partner in crime after Lorenzo". Fabio said.

Both laughed together as the Salvatore secretary came to them.

"Paulo president want you to meet you at his office after the training session ends". Salvatore secretary said.

Paulo feeling confused, he's still trying to figure it out what does exactly Salvatore want from him.

After the end of training session Paulo went to Salvatore office.

"Did you called me president ?". Paulo said to Salvatore.

Salvatore told Paulo to come in.

"Are you enjoying here Paulo ?, Do you like to be here playing with us, no I mean if have any kind of problem here or feel something inappropriate here ?". Salvatore asked Paulo.

Paulo answered him no and told him that he feels very lucky to be the part of this team but Paulo questioned him that why he is asking all this

"No, no don't misunderstood me, I mean as a president of this club it's my responsibility to make sure that a new player is feeling comfortable with the squad, our coach, are you good in it".

Paulo said that he has no problem with anybody nor with the squad and nor with the coach. Paulo again asked about his contract

"You will get your contract very soon and I'll be one who give you because you are an impeccable player". Salvatore said.

Paulo asked him why does he believe in him so much he'd never played a match before for his club.

"I have gone through many experiences of my life, I observed many players before and they played good also at some stage but there is something that separates you from others". Salvatore said.

Salvatore after having some normal conversation then decided to test his loyalty.

"Paulo I got many calls regarding to you when I told about your talent to other teams scouting staffs and they want you to be the part of their team, they even decided to give you contract after a trail with huge wages that could make rich and popular name in Italian football within a year would like to go for them, If you want then I could talk to them".

Paulo simply rejected those advances from other club and plead his president let him stay in this club.

Salvatore however tried to convice him.

"Why do you not want to join when they are giving you much higher wages and why you want to stay in this club, don't you know that we're already in huge dept and we cannot give you wages according to your talent". Salvatore said.

Paulo said it's never about money because it's his dream to play for Parma C.F and the day he given him a chance to play for them it's his biggest prize given by them for his talent. He also told him about his childhood story that he supports this team dreamed to become like his idol Diego Sanchez. He assured him that he'll never leave if any club offer him huge amount of money.

Salvatore was impressed by him and love for his club he just simply hugged and said

"I am proud of you and your love for this club is unconditional".
