Y/N stepped off the plane in Incheon, the familiar scent of South Korea greeting him like an old friend. The past year had been a whirlwind of victories, the pinnacle being the treble with A.C. Milan and his crowning achievement, the Ballon d'Or. But now, back in his second homeland his man began Italy but he's here In south Korea for a well-deserved vacation, the accolades seemed a world away.

As he navigated through the bustling airport, his thoughts drifted to Hyejeong. They had kept in touch sporadically throughout his season, and now he was eager to see her. He remembered her fierce dedication to fitness, her determination mirroring his own in many ways. It was one of the many things that had drawn him to her.

The car ride through Seoul was a blur of memories and anticipation. Y/N's mind raced with thoughts of the last time he had seen Hyejeong, their conversations, her encouraging messages after each match. He had arranged to meet her at a chic, modern cafe that was known for its privacy and excellent coffee.

When he arrived, Y/N adjusted his tailored suit, a habit he had picked up from the many press conferences and events. As he entered the cafe, his eyes scanned the room until they landed on her. She was sitting by the window, sunlight catching the edges of her short bob, her physique as impressive as ever in a sleek black bikini top and shorts.

Hyejeong looked up as the door chimed, her eyes lighting up when she saw him. She stood, and for a moment, they just looked at each other, the noise of the cafe fading into the background. Then, with a smile, she walked over and wrapped him in a tight hug.

"Y/N, it's so good to see you," she said, her voice warm and genuine.

"It's good to be back," he replied, his own smile reflecting hers. "You look amazing, as always."

They settled into a corner booth, the conversation flowing easily between them. They talked about his season, the highs and lows, the intense training and the thrill of victory. Hyejeong shared her own experiences, her fitness journey, and the challenges she faced.

"You know," she said, taking a sip of her coffee, "I've been following your matches. You've been incredible, Y/N. Winning the treble and the Ballon d'Or? That's insane."

He laughed, a bit bashful. "Thanks, Hyejeong. It's been a dream come true, but it's also been exhausting. I needed this break."

"Well, you're in the right place," she said, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "How about we start your vacation with a little challenge? I know a great spot for a workout session."

Y/N raised an eyebrow. "A workout, huh? Alright, you're on. But don't expect me to go easy on you just because I've been off the pitch for a bit."

Hyejeong smirked. "I wouldn't have it any other way." They left the cafe, the sun shining brightly over Seoul. As they walked towards the gym, Y/N felt a sense of contentment. Being back in South Korea, spending time with Hyejeong, it was the perfect way to unwind after the most intense season of his career.

After an intense workout session filled with laughter, friendly competition, and mutual admiration, Hyejeong and Y/N were both pleasantly exhausted. The two had pushed each other to their limits, but the camaraderie and mutual respect made it all worth it. As they left the gym, Hyejeong turned to Y/N with a smile.

"How about coming over to my place?" she asked. "We can relax, have some dinner, and just enjoy the evening."

Y/N, still catching his breath, nodded eagerly. "That sounds perfect. Lead the way."

Hyejeong's home was a stylish and cozy apartment in the heart of Seoul. As they walked in, Y/N admired the decor, which reflected her personality: a blend of modern elegance and a touch of boldness. The living room was spacious yet inviting, with comfortable furniture and personal touches that made it feel like a true home.
