Kazuki opened his eyes slowly. The white ceiling was the first thing he saw. He took a deep breath and slowly raised his upper body. He positioned himself to sit on the bed.

The bedroom door was opened. The figure of a woman with long hair wearing an apron appeared from the door. The woman gave Kazuki a morning smile and said, "You're awake, honey?"

Kazuki ignored Shiraishi's question. Instead, he replied to Shiraishi's question with another question, "What time is it? I have to go practice."

"Didn't you say that today's practice is a day off?"

Kazuki scratched his head and remember that coach George had given him a day's vacation. He then nodded and said, "You're right, today is my day off."

"Good then, let's have breakfast first," said Shiraishi.

Kazuki got up from the bed and followed Shiraishi into the dining room. The two of them ate the food Shiraishi had prepared for breakfast.

Shiraishi's current occupation was following his father Furochi to learn how to be a good agent. She was really serious in her words to become Kazuki's agent. Shiraishi's spirit was welcomed by Kazuki. The young man gave full support to his lover.

Furochi himself seemed to agree with his daughter's relationship with Kazuki. Perhaps from the start, this was Furochi's purpose of introducing his daughter as Kazuki's personal assistant.

The vacation time given by George Kazuki was filled with his time with Shiraishi. They watch movies, visit the mall, play in the park, and so on.

Southampton will be playing their 17th game in the English Premier League. Their opponent in this match was Leeds. Marcelo Bielsa was still the coach of Leeds. However, unlike last season, Bielsa this season seems unable to maintain the appearance of Leeds last season. Leeds was now perched in 16th position and was only a few points away from the relegation zone.

The line-up for Leeds in the match against Southampton was as follows. Illan Meslier; Luke Ayling, Firpo, Liam Cooper, Reynolds; Rodrigo, Calvin Phillips, Fernando; Raphinha, Patrick Bamford, Horizon.

Meanwhile Southampton fielded the formation as follows. Dean Smith; Vicente, Okhalo, Hilton, Benson; Simone, Orlando; Rustan, Bennett, Ryan; Kazuki.

Both teams fielded their mainstay players in the first half of this season. Southampton played Vicente who had recovered from his injury. Meanwhile Leed played Fernando, their new player whose form did not live up to Marcelo Bielsa's expectations. Fernando's performance throughout the premier league was very average he doesn't have any striking data but also not too bad.
