CHAPTER 1: DROPOUT
That day, all LA Galaxy players are training as usual. Then, Aaron was summoned by the head coach to the office.
"Okay, Aaron. I have a news to tell you" said Schelotto.
"What is it, coach?" asked Aaron.
"The management of LA Galaxy had decided to trade you out from the club" replied Schelotto.
"Oh, c'mon coach. You gotta be kidding" said Aaron.
"No, I'm not. Sorry, Aaron. It seems that after what happened between you and your sister, this is for the best since you and your brother in-law seems like you both are ready to tear each other's apart" replied Schelotto.
"So, the club wants me out just because of my personal matter?" asked Aaron.
"Yeah. Sorry that I can't said anything about it" replied Schelotto.
"It's okay, coach. I don't blame you for it. So, where will they trade me?" asked Aaron.
"There are currently 3 clubs that interested to sign you but all 3 of it are far away from each other. So, you might need to drop out from UCLA" replied Schelotto.
"Even LAFC not interested on me, huh. I guess I'm the no.1 most hated guy in LA. So, which clubs are those?" asked Aaron.
"First, is our fellow Californian; San Jose Earthquake and then, Chicago Fire" replied Schelotto.
"I see. So, what is the last one?" asked Aaron.
"This is the furthest one. It's Manchester United in Premier League" replied Schelotto. Aaron was surprised.
"What?? Really?" asked Aaron disbelief.
"Yeah. It seems like they think you're the best choice that they can get after Martial returned to Lyon. So, which clubs do you want to sign?" asked Schelotto.
"Easy. Manchester United" replied Aaron. Schelotto nodded.
"Very well, then. I'll update anything new to you" said Schelotto.
"Thanks, coach" replied Aaron.
Later at the lockeroom;
Aaron just done washed up when 2 persons came in; Zlatan Ibrahomovic and Aaron's brother in-law; Serv Carrasco. Once Serv saw Aaron, he just picked his bag and walked away.
"So, whay Schelotto wants from you?" asked Zlatan.
"He told me that the management wants to trade me out from this club," replied Aaron.
"Is it about what happened between you and your sister?" asked Zlatan.
"Yeah. They thought it just matter of time before Serv and I started to fight in practice" replied Aaron.
"Yeah, I can see that. So, which clubs that want to sign you?" asked Zlatan.
"There's San Jose Earthquake, Chicago Fire and your former club; Manchester United" replied Aaron.
"Really? That's great. So, which club did you choose?" asked Zlatan.
"All I can say is; see you in FIFA Club World Cup" replied Aaron. Zlatan smirked.
"No. Maybe you meant let's meet in UEFA Champions League" said Zlatan.
"You're leaving too?" asked Aaron.
"Yeah. In January of course" replied Zlatan.
"I see" said Aaron.
"So, did you already told your parents?" asked Zlatan.
"Nope. After what happened between me and Alex, my whole family don't really care about me anymore. Everytime I went to meet all of them, they told me that I was not welcomed" replied Aaron.
"That's sucks. Anyway, I'm glad that you chose to come out from your comfort zone and take such a bold move" said Zlatan.
"Well, playing in Europe always been a dream for me. That's where the top players played since long time ago after all" replied Aaron.
"That's true. So, good luck in your new place" said Zlatan.
"Thanks, man" replied Aaron. Zlatan just patted Aaron's shoulder before left.
"Time to give an old friend a call then" said Aaron before took out his phone and make a phone call.
Later that night;
Aaron is about to done packing some of his stuff when his roommate; Wyatt Weaver came in. (cough*cough*16vxriot) Wyatt is also Aaron's classmate in UCLA that rolled in with a full ride American football scholarship.
"Why are you packing some stuff?" asked Wyatt.
"Well, LA Galaxy didn't want me anymore. So, I'll drop out in few days" replied Aaron.
"That's a shame. So, where are you heading next?" asked Wyatt.
"Can you keep a secret?" asked Aaron.
"Sure. Just tell me" replied Wyatt.
"It's Manchester United" said Aaron causing Wyatt to drop his jaw.
"One of the biggest club in the world wants you?" asked Wyatt.
"Yeah. It seems that my performance at the Gold Cup caught their attention" replied Aaron.
"So, did you already told your family about it?" asked Wyatt.
"Nope" replied Aaron.
"I hope everything going to be fine for both you and your family" said Wyatt.
"To be honest, I don't care about it anymore. They're like kicked me out from the family just because I have a big arguement with Alex. But I guess it's my fault too for quarrell against the golden child of the family" replied Aaron.
"Well, everyone saw her as their hero since she and her teammates won the World Cup twice already while you and the boys failed to retain the Gold Cup" said Wyatt.
"Yeah. But that doesn't matter for me now. If they didn't want me, so be it. I just move forward on my own" replied Aaron.
"Goodluck, man. Hope everything will be good for you" said Wyatt.
"Thanks. Goodluck for you too" replied Aaron. Wyatt just nodded.
Few days later;
Wyatt and some of their classmates are at the airport to send Aaron off.
"We'll miss you, brother" said Alex Ambrose. (cough*cough Lokis03277)
"That's true. Never thought that we will see you leave this early" said Maria Marshall. (cough*cough*QueenZain3)
"Well, nothing is predicted in life after all" replied Aaron.
"So, will you come back here?" asked Jarrod.
"Well, who knows. If the national team still want to give me a call-up, I'll return for sure" replied Aaron.
"I'm sure they will. It's you after all. The Golden Boot winner and The Best Young Player in Gold Cup this year" said Wyatt.
"That's true. If they don't, they're as idiot as Kenny Omega and Vince McMahon combined" said Alex then. Aaron chuckled.
"Don't forget us when you're famous, dude" said Maria.
"Well, I'm already famous, right. In both good and bad way" replied Aaron.
"Yeah, right. So, who'll pick you up at the airport there?" asked Maria.
"Well, one of my old friend there. He just get a call-up to the senior team too" replied Aaron.
"Of the same club?" asked Lisa.
"Yup" replied Aaron.
"That's good. At least we knew that you have someone there to help you" said Wyatt. Later on, the announcement was made to all passengers that will take the same flight with Aaron to Manchester to go to the departure hall.
"Okay, guys. Time to say goodbye" said Aaron.
"Okay, man. Take care" said Wyatt as they bro-hugged.
"Yeah, you too" replied Aaron.
"Kick some ass in England" said Alex then.
"I will" replied Aaron.
"Don't forget to FaceTime with us sometimes" said Maria.
"Sure" replied Aaron. After hugged and said goodbye to his friends; Aaron walked to the departure hall.
"Thanks for everything, LA. Now, I'm going to move on to be better" muttered Aaron alone as he went to check out his document at the entrance. He then turned around and look up to his friends before clenching his fist and pointed at them while they did the same towards him. Then, Aaron walked away.
