Summary
“I am sorry for what must have happened,” Pedri told him, meaning it. “I am sorry for the choices you felt you needed to make.”
“You will make the same choice, too,” Lewy said. “For your career. For the Ballon d’Or campaign that I suspect must be about to launch for you. To protect your … friend. You do not know yet that you will make that choice. You are still debating. Unsure. But there will come a day, inevitably, that you choose yourself and your god-given talent. And I’m here to tell you that when that day comes … it is okay. When you make that choice, you will have doubts and regret. You may even regret it for the rest of your life. But a talent like yours is its own justification. You owe everything to the potential in yourself. Your football is your gift to the world. You are not required to burn the world down and sacrifice it.”
There, Pedri thought. That is the difference between us.
“But I am sure," Pedri said calmly, "and I would burn the world down for him."
Or, Ferran and Pedri's new relationship reminds Robert Lewandowski of the love he once sacrificed for football.
