That night, Aaron is tuning his guitar while listening to song.
Suddenly, he got a FaceTime request from Dr Adriana.
Aaron: Hi, doc.
Adriana: Told you to just call me Adriana.
Aaron: Sorry. How you're doing?
Adriana: Great. What about you?
Aaron: Nothing much. So, what's up?
Adriana: Well, I'm going to Munich in 2 days to visit my cousin. Can you pick me up at the airport?
Aaron: Sure. Did you booked your hotel already?
Adriana: Not yet. Still trying to find the best place.
Aaron: How long are you going to be here?
Adriana: Maybe few days.
Aaron: I see. Why don't you just stay at my place then? I have extra room.
Adriana: Is that not giving you any trouble?
Aaron: Of course not. Don't worry. I won't do anything bad to you.
Adriana: I know that. Very well then. I'll tell you when I arrive.
Aaron: Sure thing. Are you coming here alone by the way?
Adriana: Yes. Anyway, I need to go now. See you in 2 days.
Aaron: Okay, Doc. Take care.
Adriana: You too. Bye
Aaron: Bye.
Then, they hung up.
"Is she the one? Nah, too early for that" muttered Aaron alone.
2 days later;
Adriana arrived at Munich International Airport. Once she picked up her luggage, she walked to the arrival hall nervously.
"What is this feeling? Do I have feeling towards him? But even if I do, he won't accept me. I'm not as cool as him. I'm lucky enough that he wants to be my friend" said inner Adriana. As she arrived at the arrival hall, she saw Aaron already there.
"Welcome to Munich, Doc" said Aaron after a quick hug.
"Drop the Doc, Aaron. I'm not on duty right now" replied Adriana. Aaron just chuckled.
"Let's go then" said Aaron. Adriana just nodded before followed Aaron.
Later on;
Aaron and Adriana arrived at Aaron's place.
"Please, come in" said Aaron while helping Adriana with her luggage.
"Quite tidy. I thought athlete's place will always messy" said Adriana.
"Ouch" said Aaron while holding his chest. Adriana just giggled.
"So, this is the guest room. Feel free to ask for anything" said Aaron as they entered the guest room.
"I see. So, you have 2 guest rooms, huh?" asked Adriana.
"No, only this one. The 3rd room is like my personal music studio. That's why I made it soundproof" replied Aaron.
"I see. Good choice of having this place" said Adriana.
"Thanks. Alphonso Davies helped me to find this" replied Aaron.
"I see. You always easy making friends wherever you go. That's proved that you're a nice guy" said Adriana.
"Thanks. Now, I know you tired after the long flight. Why don't you take a rest for a while. I'll go and cook something for lunch" replied Aaron.
"You can cook?" asked Adriana.
"Of course I can. Might not be a Michelin star level, but nobody ever fall sick after eating my cooking. So don't worry, Doc" replied Aaron.
"I didn't say anything like that" said Adriana before stucked her tounge out.
"You're lucky you a friend. If not, I might put poison inside your food" replied Aaron. Adriana just giggled.
Later on;
Aaron brings Adriana to walk around the city.
"So, what is your cousin doing here?" asked Aaron.
"She studying here at University of Munich" replied Adriana.
"Really? Why don't she just studying in US though?" asked Aaron.
"Well, she's a British after all" replied Adriana.
"UK has plenty university and she still decided to come here?" asked Aaron.
"Yeah. Even I don't know why" replied Adriana.
"I see" said Aaron.
"By the way, do you have band here?" asked Adriana.
"Noy yet. I still learning German. So, it will take more time" replied Aaron.
"Don't they know how to speak English?" asked Adriana.
"Of course they do. But, once they enter their country, they won't speak other language. Only German" replied Aaron.
"I see. They're really love their nation, huh" said Adriana.
"Of course they are. Aren't we the same towards the US?" asked Aaron.
"Yeah but of course, you're more patriotic than me. Since you dared to argue with Megan Rapinoe and the rest of women players when they talked about money while represent the nation" replied Adriana. Aaron just chuckled. Later on, they passing through Allianz Arena.
"So, Doc. Welcome to Allianz Arena, the homeground for my team" said Aaron.
"It's huge. You just play with the big club here in Europe, huh" replied Adriana.
"So far, yes" said Aaron.
"Which club is next? Real Madrid? Barcelona? Or maybe Manchester City" said Adriana.
"We'll see about that. So, Doc. When will you introduce to me your boyfriend?" asked Aaron.
"When I have one of course. What about you? When will you introduce to me your new girlfriend?" asked Adriana in returned.
"Well, who knows" replied Aaron.
"Really?" asked Adriana disbelief.
"Yes. As you know, even I don't know if I should date anyone right now" replied Aaron.
"You should be. But who am I to force you, right" said Adriana.
"Yeah. But it's not that you'll force me though" replied Aaron. Adriana smirked.
"Of course I won't. Especially you need to focus on your career and your study" said Adriana.
"I expecting no less than that from our class' prodigy" replied Aaron.
"Oh, I'm a prodigy? I'm just lucky that the most popular boy in our batch name Aaron Morgan is an athlete. If not, I might just be a no.2" said Adriana.
"No, you won't" replied Aaron.
"Yes, I will. Despite all the practice and tournament you being part of, you're still one of the top 3 student in our batch. If you're nerd like me, nobody can surpass you" said Adriana.
"Theorically, yeah. But I'm not a nerd. That's why I never being able to surpass you" replied Aaron.
"Mind if I ask you something?" asked Adriana.
"You already did, right. Of course you can" replied Aaron.
"Normally athletes will be satisfy by just pass all the subjects but you put effort to score the highest grade. Why?" asked Adriana.
"Well, Alex taught me that an athlete with brain and muscle is better than athlete with just muscle alone. After what I've been through until today, I can see her point" replied Aaron.
"You sure have a great sister there" said Adriana.
"That's true. I learned a lot from her. That's why after what happened last year, I felt so down and when I got her back, my life is better even though other disaster happened" replied Aaron.
"I see" said Adriana. After a while, they walked back to Aaron's place.
That night;
Aaron and Adriana are already in front of the TV where the draw for the group stage of UEFA Champions League will be held.
"So, Aaron. Which club that you hope you'll face in the group stage?" asked Adriana.
"Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, Ajax" replied Aaron.
"3 tough teams huh" said Adriana.
"Yup. I wish we can get PSG or Juventus, but that sounds impossible since they're league winner" replied Aaron.
"What about your former club?" asked Adriana.
"If Ayewb plays, then I love to crush him" replied Aaron.
"Never thought that you'll hate him that much" said Adriana.
"After what he had done last season, he deserved to be hated" replied Aaron. Adriana just giggled. Later on, the draw for UEFA Champions League begins.
Later;
"You got Atletico there" said Adriana.
"I know. Too bad my old club is in Group H. Now, I have no chance to crush Ayewb" replied Aaron.
"Yeah. But it's okay. At least we all know that you won't punch anyone on the pitch" said Adriana. Aaron just chuckled.
