After the match, the fans filed out and Kristina, as she did last time, took Alyssa and Bertha to find a restaurant and then gave Velarde the location.
As it turned out, by the time Villard arrived at the restaurant in his car and entered the lobby, the lobby wall-mounted TV was playing the same station that had just broadcast the Hurricanes vs. Tucuman Athletic game live.
Of course, Velarde didn't notice this and was thinking of asking his sister where the private room she was talking about was, but the lobby manager, Connor Bazell, was the one who had watched the game live before and was impressed with Alan Velarde, whom the commentators were all raving about.
That's when he saw Villard walk in, and Bazel hastened to greet him with surprise, "Hello, welcome. Are you Alan Villard?"
Velarde froze for a moment, he hadn't been to this restaurant before, and he hadn't seen this man in his memory, saying, "I'm Alan Velarde, do we know each other?"
Connor Bazelton pointed to the wall-mounted TV and said in surprise: "You haven't seen me, but I've seen you, just now in the live broadcast of the game. I'm an Athletic Hurricanes fan too, and your performance in the game just now was so good, it was like an iron gate at the back, the opponents couldn't get through, and you helped us win 3-0 against top-ranked Athletic Tucumán. The commentators were full of praise for your performance and named you the man of the match, and so did I."
Velarde was a little surprised, I didn't expect to reap such high recognition from the fans in his first debut, and to be recognized when he came out for a meal, so it's a little bit of fame!
Velarde humbled himself with Connor Bazell for a few moments before the manager himself led Velarde to what he called a private room to meet his sister and her two roommates.
Kristina, Alisa, and Bertha were also quite excited, and when they saw Velarde appear, they all rushed up and hugged Velarde fiercely and sent kisses.
Kristina, however, was a kiss between loved ones, while Alyssa and Bertha, were just kisses sent to them by being overwhelmed by his performance today.
Originally, when Alisa hugged Velarde and gave him a kiss on the cheek, no one was much surprised, because through several meetings and the usual phone calls and text chats, the two of them had a crush on each other, and all that was missing was a formal confession.
But the petite and introverted Reece Bertha, who also embraced Velarde, suddenly kissed him on the cheek and everyone froze a bit.
But Bertha was quick to respond as well, telling the frozen trio, "I saw Kristina and Alisa both kissing Velarde, so I followed suit, nothing more."
Saying that, but everyone seemed to have some guesses when they thought about Bertha's attitude towards Villard during this time. Especially Alisa, a little surprised and a little jealous, "Bertha, Kristina is Villard's sister, I do like Villard, we can all kiss him, next time you can't."
Bertha, who was already introverted and not very expressive, got anxious when she heard Alyssa say that and blurted out, "Why the hell not, I like Velarde too."
At that, the air was suddenly quiet.
Kristina looked at her brother, then at Heidi Alisa, then at Reece Bertha, and suddenly clapped her hands and laughed at Velarde, "Brother, you're a lucky man, both of my girlfriends are in love with you, who do you choose now?"
Velarde was a little embarrassed, originally, with his mental age, was only treating his sister's two roommates equally as sisters, after all, there was a difference of almost 20 years, and by domestic law they even counted as still just on the verge of adulthood.
But Heidi Alisa character is too active, people and beautiful, body and good, he ultimately failed to resist the temptation of the male nature of the temptation, Alisa hormones, is ready to find a proper opportunity and Alisa formalize the relationship it!
Although he was mentally older, he was physically only 21, and with all that hard training and even extra training every day, it was nice to have a gentle place to rest once in a while.
As for Reece Bertha, as appealing as childishly huge as she was, he hadn't really bothered to think much about her before, just seeing her as a roommate and BFF to his sister and Alyssa.
As a result, when the words came out of Bertha's heart this time, Velarde was a little embarrassed, but his heart inevitably rippled a little.
Secretly poking with the rest of her eyes, she glanced at Reece Bertha's face, mouth, and peaks, and then thought about how wonderful it would be to do something indescribable if Bertha became a girlfriend, I'm afraid.
As my sister said, it's a tough call. It's not a good choice!
It would be nice to have both left and right at the same time.
Just when Villard was embarrassed on his face and thinking of something good in his heart, Heidi Alisa suddenly walked in front of him again, hugged one of Villard's arms and said, "Villard, I like you, be my boyfriend, okay?"
As soon as she saw that, Reece Bertha showed her heart anyway, so she also boldly came over and hugged Velarde's other arm, saying, "Velarde, I like you too, and I want to be your girlfriend, okay?"
Feeling the softness coming from the two arms, Velarde did feel a bit torn. Of course, he didn't dare to really say what was in his heart, then I'm afraid it would be a basket case, and he wouldn't be able to take any of them.
I'm afraid it's impossible to share a boyfriend with anyone else, even if they are roommates or girlfriends. Let's take one first and solve the bedmate problem, then we'll take a step behind the rest.
Therefore, after pondering for a while, Velarde decisively said to Reece Bertha, "Bertha, thank you for your favor, I'm honored, and I like you too. However, as you know, I've been interacting with Alisa a bit more during this time. So, I can only apologize to you!"
Then, Velarde pulled his arm out of Reece Bertha's hand, turned around and hugged Heidi Alisa, saying, "Heidi, through this time of interaction, I think you are my princess, and now you are my girlfriend!"
After saying that, he cupped Heidi Alisa's cheeks and kissed directly on Alisa's red lips.
Unexpectedly, the bold and open-minded Eliza acted rusty, nervously closing her eyes and not knowing to open her mouth for a tongue kiss, just letting Velarde kiss her on the lips for a few seconds.
Velarde didn't kiss for too long either, just to establish a relationship. Even if Alyssa wouldn't, he'd just take his time later to temper it.
As the two kissed, Reece Bertha was beside her, beaming and sad as if she was about to burst into tears. Kristina, who had wanted to celebrate her brother having a girlfriend, had to go and comfort Bertha.
It was a good thing that Velarde and Alyssa didn't kiss for too long, or Bertha might have actually cried out.
Even so, it comforted Kristina for a long time.
Alisa was also a little embarrassed, sitting next to Bertha, comforting her, "Bertha, I'm sorry, I can't give way in this kind of thing, but I'll definitely give way to you in other things. From now on, we'll still be good sisters, if there's anything you need, just call me."
Reece Bertha sniffled, "I'm not giving up, it's not like you guys can't break up if you're not married anyway, I just like Velarde."
Alyssa went along with Bertha's words, "Fine, fine, you can like it if you like it, and if I break up with Velarde in the future, feel free to make an effort to become his new girlfriend."
Afterwards, the restaurant began to serve the food, and several people stopped talking about this topic and began to eat, after all, everyone didn't have dinner for the match that started at 16:00 in the afternoon. And after the match until now, it was already evening, it was indeed time to eat dinner as well.
Of course, the main thing was to celebrate Velarde's first career start and his great play and wonderful prospects, and a few people had a little drink.
Although the relationship was confirmed, the presence of Reece Bertha was a concern, and Velarde and Alyssa didn't spam each other at the table with food or anything, making Bertha feel slightly better.
After dinner, when leaving, Connor Bazell gave a 20% discount, and called Velarde aside and said: "Velarde, I talked to the boss on the phone while you were dining, the boss looked at the game brochure, and felt that you have a lot of potential, and would like you to take a picture of it for us to enlarge it and sign it with your autograph, and then we'll hang it up as an advertisement in the restaurant, to attract your fans and Hurricanes fans to come and dine with us. We'll hang it in the restaurant as an advertisement to attract your fans and Hurricanes fans to come and dine with us. It's also an endorsement, and our boss is willing to pay 50,000 pesos a year for two years, what do you think?"
Velarde was taken aback, he was only earning 3000 pesos a month now, even with the appearance fee it wasn't enough for 4000, 50,000 pesos a year for endorsement was equivalent to an extra year's worth of salary he had harvested, if it was the original host's words, the sincerity couldn't be said to be insufficient, Kristina, Alyssa, and Bessa were all listening to the two-eyes, they couldn't wait to say yes right away for Velarde.
Unfortunately, Velarde is not the original host and is attached to the system externally and knows roughly what kind of ballplayer he's going to be in the future.
Therefore, Velarde shook his head and said, "Bazel, thanks to you and your boss's high regard, I am very willing to be the image spokesman for you guys and get the first endorsement fee of my career. However, I'm afraid that I won't be able to fulfill such a good offer, and then I'll harm you. I think, we sign half a year on the line, 10,000 20,000 you can give some random. After half a year, if you think the effect is still good, can really attract the Hurricanes fans to come to eat, increased revenue, then we will renew the contract, how?"
Connor Bazelton was then greatly moved and said, "Velarde, you are so real, I like you. You leave me a phone number, and I'll call you when I'm sure after I report back to my boss."
"Okay!" Velarde responded, leaving a call for Connor Bazell.
After a few of Alan Velarde's people left, Connor Bazell called his boss and said that Velarde had volunteered to lower his signing year and endorsement fee, a very real young man.
As a result, Bazel's boss laughingly said, "You underestimated Velarde, he is ready to see if the Hurricanes can be promoted to A-League in half a year's time, and if he can become an A-League star. At that time then want to renew the contract, do you think the A League star and A League B player is a price? Moreover, if he completely stabilizes the Hurricanes' starting position in these six months, can the endorsement fee be the same as that of a substitute player who only makes occasional appearances?"
Connor Bazell then woke up as if from a dream and laughed to himself, "Well, it's me who underestimated him, I thought he was only 21 and didn't understand this yet! I didn't realize that a 21-year-old was already so savvy."
The boss added: "Anyway, I watched the match brochure, he has a good physique, defense, and awareness, far beyond the Grade B players, in the future there is a possibility that he will really become an A-League star, or even enter the national team. Give him 20,000, sign for half a year, at the same time, he came to eat up to 4 people for free, a good karma, if the effect is good then renew the contract."
Connor Bazell responded.
