After going beyond his limits, pushing himself to the ultimate level and fulfilling his goal, bringing the AFCON trophy back to Nigeria, all that Sam wanted to do was rest.
He was exhausted.
Throughout the duration of the tournament, he never rested, always training, always going through tactics, living and breathing football.
The adrenaline at the moment didn't let him feel it. And 2 days after winning the trophy, he didn't feel it yet.
But on the 3rd day, Sam felt it, extreme exhaustion.
He felt like he would just faint at any moment.
This was why he proposed a vacation to his girlfriend. Kayla didn't object. Sam fulfilled his promise and won the AFCON tournament, so she was determined to indulge him, give him anything he wanted.
On the 3rd day after clinching the AFCON trophy, Sam went on a vacation with his girlfriend to the United Arab Emirates, Dubai.
