AN: I'm sorry if the Italian translation is wrong. I got it from worldlingo

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once Sammie found that she walked into Anika's room and asked, "Are you ready?" Anika replied, "Yes, but where am I going to stay tonight?" Sammie answered, "You can stay with me until we find your father. I know his name I just need to find him. Come on lets go to my house." Anika and Sammie pulled up to Sammie's house. Anika was in awe of the house. It was a two story old Victorian house with a wrap around porch. Sammie saw the look on Anika's face and just chuckled. After showing Anika to the guest room, Sammie started in search of Anika's father. She searched 5 days straight for this guy, and finally when she was gonna give up for a little while she got a hit on him. He was living in Texas. The bad thing was they were living in North Carolina. Sammie thought about it and didn't want to send a 14 yr old to Texas by herself unless it was a sure thing.

That night Sammie sat Anika down for a talk. Sammie told her that she had found her father and that they were on a flight to meet him Friday. Anika asked, "Texas? Are you gonna go with me?" Sammie answered, "Yeah I'm gonna go so I can see that you get settled in ok." Anika added and to see if this guy wants me. What's gonna happen if he doesn't want me?" Sammie replied, "We'll cross that bridge if and when we get there." She had Anika pack before dinner, and after dinner Anika went out back to shoot some hoops. Anika was a natural athlete and at academics. She was already taking Italian at school. She had academic medals and awards along with gold medals and trophies in track, soccer, basketball, softball, cheerleading, and some wrestling she dabbed into. First thing the next morning Sammie took her to the school to set it up for her to finish her schooling online cause she assumed her father had the internet. The night before the flight they went to eat at Olive Garden which was Anika's favorite restaurant.

For Anika the flight from North Carolina to Texas felt like forever. This man whom she's never met is deciding her fate. She wanted to make a good impression on him who ever he was. They landed in Texas around 4:30 that afternoon. They decided on meeting this guy the next day which was a Sunday. Anika and Sammie were staying at the same hotel as Anika's fathers co-workers. Not only that, she was staying in the same hotel as her uncle that she never knew existed. Anika noticed a guy looking at her as if he's seen a ghost, but she didn't know why because she's never seen this man before in her life. She rushed Sammie into the elevator because that guy gave her the creeps. Sammie asked, "Are you ok?" Anika replied, "Nope. That guy by the café was staring at me as if he's seen a ghost. He was just giving me the creeps." After going to the room they ordered room service. Anika got a cheeseburger, fries, and a sprite while Sammie got a salad and a diet dr. pepper.

Meanwhile in the lobby of the hotel the guy that was staring at Anika was nudged by another guy. The guy who nudged him asked, "Paul are you ok? You act like you've seen a ghost." Paul answered, "Yeah Dave. I just thought I saw someone that looks like someone I haven't seen in a long time."

Anika and Sammie went to sleep early that night. Anika was in a restless sleep all night. She got up at 5:20 and decided to go to the gym to shoot some hoops. For Anika shooting hoops or sports in general was a way to get her mind off of things. She left Sammie a note just in case she woke up while Anika was gone. Anika wore pink jogging shorts and a black tank top. She threw her hair up in a pony tail and threw on her Nikes. She grabbed her card key and took off out the door. Anika opened the door to the basketball court and found it empty. She thanked God for that. She grabbed a ball and started shooting at the foul line. About 15 minutes into her running drills the door opened. She turned her head and saw the most gorgeous guy she's ever seen. He had crystal blue eyes and brown hair. She smiled and he smiled back. That smile was to die for. He stated, Hi I'm Randy. Do you mind if I use this half of the court?" She said, "Hi Randy my name's Anika, and no I don't mind if you use that side of the court." Randy grabbed another ball and started shooting from the foul line. Anika saw his butt and said, "Estremita Pracevole (Nice butt)." Randy smiled to himself and turned to face her. He stated, "Grazie, stessi a voi (Thanks, and same to you)." She blushed and asked, "Do you want to play a game of 21?" Randy replied, "Let's go."

15 minutes into the game Randy was in the lead 16-8. 30 minutes into the game they drew a crowd and the score was 20-18. Anika went for the 3 pt. shot and made it meaning she won. Randy said, "Congratulations Anika, and now to show I'm not a sore loser how bout I buy breakfast?" Anika replied in front of most of his co- workers, "Sure. I mean beating you did give me an appetite." They went into the café by the gym and Randy sat down after pulling her chair out for her. He ordered orange juice, scrambled eggs, and hash browns. While Anika ordered chicken fried steak, hash browns, and water. Randy asked, "So Anika what brings you to Texas?" Anika replied, "Well it's a long story." Randy said, "I have the time if you wanna tell me." Anika stated, "Well my mother past away in an accident and a social worker brought me here to meet my father. May I inform you that I never knew anything about this man. I don't even know his name. What brings you here Randy?"

He answered, "I'm sorry about your mother Anika. Well my job does actually. I work for the WWE and we have a show here today and Monday. Anika asked, "What's the WWE?" Randy informed her, "That stands for World Wrestling Entertainment. I'm a professional wrestler. So this guy whom you never met is deciding your fate? How old are you?" Anika replied, "Yeah a guy I've never met is deciding my fate. By the way I'm 14. So Randy how old are you?" He answered, "I'm 24." He looked at his watch and noticed it was 7:45. He said, "As much as I'd like to stay because I'm enjoying myself, I really have to go. Maybe we can hang out again before I leave town or next time I come into town?" Randy wrote his number on a napkin and handed it to her. Anika stated, "Yeah, I gotta get back before Ms. Phillips starts to worry. Thanks for the breakfast and the game. Maybe before you leave we can shoot hoops again." Anika stated, "Thanks Randy, and I'll be sure to call you." Randy asked, "Thanks for what?" Anika replied, "For giving me a care free couple of hours. I haven't had those since before my mom past." Randy stated, "Anytime you want a care free time call me. Bye Angel." Anika questioned, "Angel?" Randy replied, "Yeah. You remind me of an angel."

Anika walked into the hotel room to find Sammie sitting on the couch. Sammie asked, "Did you have fun?" Anika answered, "It was alright. I beat a guy named Randy then he bought breakfast. Now if you'll excuse me I'd like to freshen up. She jumped in the shower and got ready cause they were going to meet her father. She blow dried her hair and pulled it half up. She threw on jeans, a t-shirt that says Angel, and cowboy boots. Sammie was wearing a pair of black slacks and a button down shirt. She was professional to the core.

Randy jumped in the shower to get ready to head to the arena for the show, but all he could think about was the girl he played basketball with. After getting dressed he heard a knock on the door. He opened the do to find his best friend John Cena. John asked, "Dude are you ready to go?" Randy looked past him to see 'his Angel' leaving. John saw him spaced out and punched him in the arm. Randy yelled, "Oww! What the fuck was that for?" John answered, "Dude you spaced out. Now what's going on?" randy answered, "I met a girl." John's ears perked up, and he asked, "Really? Now I want details." Randy replied, "Dude drop it. I'll probably never see her again anyway. Besides she's only 14." John's jaw dropped in disbelief, and questioned, "14? Randy come on now. What the hell is goin on?" randy answered, "Nothing's goin on. Dude she's a girl I met and she's had a troubled life. Just drop it. Let's go to the arena." They head out to the arena with John still bugging Randy.

Paul was at his friend's house chilling before the show. His friend was not in a good mood that day because it was the day that Paul's sister and best friend left one of his good friends. His sister was so in love with this guy that no one could figure out why she left. They couldn't even figure out the reason she left because this guy was so good to her. A couple hours after showing up to hang out with his friend he heard the door bell. Anika and Sammie stood nervously outside of a huge Texan estate waiting for someone to open the door because Anika just rang the bell. The door opened to reveal…
