“’Today I’m sad, dad is in the hospital. The mess in my head continues, so many questions without answers […]. I know dad will be fine, he won’t fail us and Ronaldo. I’m worried he’s going to play in the European Championship. Everyone is ecstatic, dad promised he would see every game. He promised to prove all the things he says so often, that he [Ronaldo] will be the best player in the world.
If he keeps going like this he’ll be the top scorer in the Premier League. If he keeps having this great mentality he’ll shut so many people up. We believe it, dad, I know how proud you are of Ronaldo so don’t fail us, dad. We won’t give up on you or the things you so confidently preach to all corners of the world. We had nothing and we were all together, now that we have so much God wants to take you away from us. We’re not ready to say goodbye.’
Three years later you [Cristiano] were the best player in the world, you won everything a player could win that year. The ‘promise’ continued, conquest after conquest.
Today is your 36th birthday and I remembered the times we were all together with a lasting union, the love that was built on top of tears and struggles only we know. The history continues with the same people, dad over there and us here. Happy birthday, brother. May God give you plenty of health because the guy up there takes care of the rest.”
Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated his birthday by scoring a goal against Roma in Serie A on Saturday evening. Congratulations champion!
