Mason grumbles glaring at a smiling you.

"It's a beautiful day, Masry, cheer up. I'm sure you'll have a good match today"

"Why are you this upbeat. Every. Single. Day."

He groans squinting his eyes against the rare sun in our shared flat in Manchester. It wasn’t that hot but the room was perfectly heated. Tonight he is going to play in the Manchester Derby.
