Leaving behind the comfort of home, family, and friends, you set your sights on a thriving career in journalism, landing a coveted position at the prestigious sports paper, Shiganshina's Sports Stars. Amidst the hustle and bustle of your new life, fate intervenes when you encounter a familiar face at a baseball game you're covering for your latest article. As you unexpectedly cross paths with someone from your past-this time, not among the crowd, but on the field itself. In essence, this story chronicles the intertwined destinies of two kindred spirits, as they navigate the twists and turns of life, ultimately finding their way back to each other against all odds.} ••••••••••••• !!same warnings as in every fanfic, this contains mature themes, like smut, drug and alcohol use, talks about mental health, etc.!!
