Alexia Putellas had always been a star on the soccer field. As a key player for FC Barcelona, she had reached the pinnacle of her career, but the pressures of professional sports had taken a toll on her both physically and mentally. A recent ACL injury left her sidelined, angry, and stressed, struggling to find solace.
One evening, as the sun set over Barcelona, Alexia found herself alone in her apartment, contemplating a peculiar idea that had been circling her mind for weeks - age regression therapy. She had heard about it from a few friends who swore by its rejuvenating effects, a way to temporarily relive the carefree days of childhood. Alexia yearned for an escape from the relentless demands of her life.
The problem was, she had no one to confide in. Her fellow teammates and coaches wouldn't understand, and her family lived in a different city. The only person she felt she could trust with such a vulnerable secret was her good friend, Jenni Hermoso. They had shared countless memories both on and off the field, and their bond was unbreakable.
Alexia Putellas has been in love with her childhood best friend, Ella, as long as she can remember. Ella moved to the States to play soccer for University but upon graduation, she was given an opportunity to come home and play for FC Barcelona, her childhood club.
Having Ella back home is a dream come true for Alexia. However, being in love with her best friend wasn't easy from afar, and as it turns out, it may be even harder from just across the pitch.
