A succesful conference was performed at the hall inside Juventus Stadium. They were going for lunch. Gianluigi was anxious for introduce his wife and kids
to Bernd, so they can face in a first moment with the pioneer reality.
"So...how is everything going at the FIGC?"
"Really well, next week I will have a theorical exam, and then a practical with Soccer School. Their players are under 10 years old. Just like
Rafaella."
"Aww...and then?"
"Another one, with teenagers and then if I accept the charge I will go with time to Juventus University."
"Meraviglioso, Bernardo!" Conte exclaims petting Bernd's hair. Arturo giggles and kisses his hand while driving.
After that, the quartet arrives to Gianluigi's home. Suddenly, he opens the door and he gasps and runs really fast.
"Madonna mia...Madonna mia, mamma! Antonio....Antonio!"
"Huh?"
Antonio runs inside.
"It's empty."
"Ist ein flasche Haus, Gianluigi..."*
"Naja!" he answers "Mein Frau und Kinder...poof!"
"Holy shit!" Arturo whispers and squeezes Bernd's hands. "Let's get in...even it's empty..."
"D'accord, liebe"
Suddenly, the Carraresi goalkeeper only finds the ring, and an envelope.
"No, Alina...what you did to me??"
"Open the envelope, Gianluigi, quick...!!!" Conte exclaimed.
"What da heck!!?? It's an old check... I closed my account of this bank because...oh, shit...L. 1.500.000...and it has the 'non-payment order' seal....
Oh...no, Antonio...I married her for free!!... "
"There's more, Gianluigi!" Arturo assures in German "There's a paper"
Gigi looks at the paper and opens it. He reads aloud:
"YOU WANTED TO STOP IT AND WORKED ANYWAYS. I KNEW THE TRUTH SINCE THE BEGINNING. IT'S TIME TO BE HAPPY. BE HAPPY. ALWAYS. LOVE, A.-"
Gianluigi sobbed.
"I was wrong, Antonio...I am so sorry...so sorry. I didn't meant to break your heart that day, more than eleven years ago... it's all over."
"What is over?"
"What do you think?" he says showing his ring and her's.
Antonio hugs and kiss him on cheek.
"Oh no, Gianluigi...she cannot do this! Hey! That L is from the old Italian's currency..."
"Yes, leave it, Arturo... is not because for her, is for my kids...I'm doomed, Arturo" he said in German.
After that, Antonio hugs him and said:
"Forza, Gianluigi, forza... you are reaching the stage where you going to flip the game...."
The Schneiders retire of the place for leaving them alone.
