That morning, all players are trained as usual. And as usual;

"That's not the way to shoot" said Dino as all forwards are working on their shooting.

"Score at least a goal first, then we talk" replied Aaron.

"I retweeted that" said Greenwood.

"Same here" said Rashford then.

"You guys are ignorant" said Dino. Meanwhile on another pitch where the women's team is trained, some players are looking at the men.

"They might be mocking Dino" said Millie.

"Well, what else. Why did they hate him so much" said Tooney.

"Morgan corrupting them, of course. The fact is that Dino is such a gentleman" said Jackie.

"What a scumbag. I can't believe I used to date him" replied Millie.

"By the way, Mil. It seems that you're quite close with Dino nowadays" said Tooney.

"That's true. I saw it on your Instagram. Are you both dating now?" asked Jackie causing Millie to blush.

"No, we're just friends" replied Millie.

"I think that you'll ended up with him soon" said Tooney.

"No way. After I believed what Morgan told me about him, he deserved someone better" replied Millie.

"Ladies, less talking and more training if you don't mind" said Stoney.

"Yes, ma'am" replied Millie, Tooney and Jackie.

Later after the training session is over;

"Hey, mate. Want to go and grab something to eat?" asked Chris. Aaron just shook his head before took his bag and walked out from the lockeroom.

"He really changed after that incident" said de Gea.

"Well, what happened that morning is totally unexpected after all" said Maguire.

"That's true. It came out of nowhere" said Rashford.

When Aaron exited the training ground, he saw Millie and Dino walking together to Dino's car. When Aaron passing through them, Dino just smirked while Millie doesn't even look at him. Aaron just ignored them and keeps walking until he arrived at a place called Golden Studio, a jaming studio nearby Aaron's place.

"There you are, Aaron. I thought you won't come" said the owner; James.

"Well, it's not that I have other place that I want to go right now" replied Aaron.

"So, do you already get your guitarist soul back?" asked James.

"I guess so. Why?" asked Aaron in returned.

"Well, there might be a big gigs next month. Want to give it a try?" asked James then.

"I love to but I don't have any line-up though" replied Aaron.

"Very well. Tell me when you got one" said James. Aaron just nodded before took one of James' guitar and entered one of the room there. After that broke up, Aaron started to do 2 of his old hobby; playing guitar and practice kickboxing.

Later on;

"Look good, Aaron" said James when Aaron returning the guitar.

"Thanks" replied Aaron.

"So, did you get the call-up to represent USA? I heard you'll face France and Germany during international week" said James.

"I did. Me, Steffen, Pulisic, and some other players that played with European clubs all got it" replied Aaron.

"What about Ayewb?" asked James.

"He got it too" replied Aaron.

"So, you'll go back to America with him?" asked James.

"Nope. I'll go back with Steffen" replied Aaron.

"I see. Goodluck in your match, Cowboy" said James. Aaron just nodded.

Few days later;

Aaron and Steffen arrived at the hotel where all national team players will stay during their training camp. After took their room keycard, they went to the conference room. When Aaron enters, most ladies gave a cold look at him while whispering to each other. Aaron just ignored them and took the seat with other players that played in Europe.

"You good, bro?" asked Sargent.

"I guess so" replied Aaron.

"Not as good I am" said Dino.

"Nobody asked you" said Palmers-Brown.

"So, how does it feels dribbling through Zack?" asked Pulisic.

"Ah, shut up, Chris" said Steffen.

"Well, I just wish I can do more than once" replied Aaron.

"That won't happened again, dude" said Steffen.

"I'll do it" said Dino then.

"Try to at least play properly first" said Brooks. Before Dino can say anything, Berhalter and Andonovski came in to brief all players.

Later on;

Aaron was about to leave the conference room after the briefing when he heard someone called him. Aaron turned around and saw Kelley O'hara and Emily Sonnett are approached him.

"What can I do for you?" asked Aaron.

"After you put your stuff in your room, please come to the lobby. We'll take you to meet someone special" replied Kelley.

"Who is that someone?" asked Aaron.

"You'll know it later. Believe me, you'll love it" replied Sonnett.

"Very well" said Aaron before took his stuff and went to his room.

Later on;

Aaron is sitting at the back seat while Sonnet took the shotgun with Kelley drives the car.

"So, can you tell me now? Where are we going actually?" asked Aaron.

"Be patient, little bro" replied Kelley causing Aaron to stun for a while.

"Did you just call me little bro?" asked Aaron.

"I did. Why?" asked Kelley in returned.

"Well, the last time you called me that was when I still in high school. So, it's surprised me a bit" replied Aaron.

"Well, I thought you didn't want me as your unofficial sister anymore since you already grow up" said Kelley.

"How come you're his unofficial sister?" asked Sonnett.

"I always follow Alex to her family house after national duty since represent USA U17. So, her family is my family too since then, especially when my real family has crisis. So, her family is the one that I went to" replied Kelley.

"I see" said Sonnett.

"Just you to know, little bro. I believed that you're not cheating on Millie. I'm sure you're framed by someone else" said Kelley then.

"Same here. Someone with that pride of yours will never do such thing" said Sonnett.

"How did you both so sure about that?" asked Aaron.

"Because it happened that I know you quite well. I have to admit that I pissed off when you not only didn't support our equal pay claim, you even said that we play for the national team for money. But then I understand the reason why is that happened and I respected your opinion" replied Kelley.

"Thanks, sis. I'm glad that I am at least have some of you that support me" said Aaron.

"Not a problem, little bro" replied Kelley. Later on, they arrived at a hospital.

"Hospital? What are we doing here?" asked Aaron.

"Seriously? You still didn't figure it out?" asked Sonnett.

"Figure what?" asked Aaron in returned.

"I guess you really isolating yourself after what happened" said Kelley.

"That's true" replied Aaron.

"Let's go then. We didn't want to make them waiting" said Sonnett.

"That's true. Let's go, little bro" said Kelley before grabbed Aaron's hand and dragged him to follow her.

Later on;

Aaron, Kelley and Sonnett enter a room where Alex is on the bed while holding a baby.

"Hi, Lex. How you're doing?" asked Kelley.

"I'm good, Kel. Meet the little Charlie" said Alex.

"Hello, baby girl" said Kelley while took Charlie from Alex. Alex then gave her attention to Aaron.

"Don't you remember how to hug your sister, little bro?" asked Alex. Aaron then sits beside Alex on the bed before wrapped his arm around his sister's waist.

"I miss you, sis" said Aaron.

"I miss you too. But why don't you contact me?" asked Alex.

"I don't know if I still can do it after what happened" replied Aaron.

"Look, Aaron. You're my brother and I love you so much. You can always talk to me. Besides, about what happened, I'm really sure that you're actually got screwed" said Alex.

"You think so?" asked Aaron.

"I know so. I saw that picture and I can see that it's fake. I have your back in this case, little bro. Don't worry" replied Alex.

"Thanks, sis. It's mean a lot to me" said Aaron.

"No problem. But still. I'm glad that this incident didn't affect your performance" said Alex.

"I have the whole team to thank. Except for one person" replied Aaron.

"To be honest, I don't get it why his transfer fee is higher than you when he played like shit" said Kelley as she puts Charlie on the baby's bed.

"I heard rumour that he's related to The Glazers" said Sonnett.

"Yeah, I heard that too. What a chronism" said Alex.

"Well, at least Ole still has the final word of who did he wants to play during the match. That's why that asshole only play 2 matches so far" replied Aaron.

"Yeah. It seems that the trio of you, Greenwood and Rashford can get a job done. There's no need of that Ayewb" said Kelley.

"That's true. So, what are you doing during your free time now since you're not dating Millie anymore?" asked Alex.

"Well, I trained kickboxing and guitar back now. Somehow I miss doing both of it" replied Aaron.

"You know kickboxing and guitar?" asked Sonnett.

"Yeah" replied Aaron.

"Just you to know, Sonny. He learned guitar from Kirk Hammett" said Kelley.

"Really? You learned it from him? Then why don't you be a pro guitarist then?" asked Sonnett.

"Football is my main passion. But who knows. Maybe I create a band to play with just for fun" replied Aaron.

"That's good. I totally support it" said Alex. After being there for a while, Aaron, Kelley and Sonnett returned back to the hotel.
