First my compliments to the developers for a technically excellent game. Truly. Renders are excellent, although Naomi's skin in some shots is more lizard than human.
The story line has a couple problems. Naomi and the MC split because she put her tournament before his need for support when his mother packed up and abandoned him. Given their oft repeated mutual commitment to each other before anything or anyone else does that make any sense at all? The simple answer is that it does not. The MC would not call her back until he'd exhausted all options. Recognizing this she wouldn't just say no, she either say "first flight home baby" or "darling I can tell you're hurting but sleep 8 hours and re-evaluate. I'll make flight arrangements and if, when you wake up, you still need me home I'll get on the plane."
Given what we've been shown about their relationship, when he went off on her she'd have recognized just how broken he'd become and gotten on the plane. Unless she really cared more for the tourney than him. If the latter case was true, then they are better off apart. Period. You can't promise "you and me against the world babe" and not deliver when called upon.
Barring some revelation, the simple fact is that, while he was in crisis, she did put him second to an athletic event gives a lot of weight to his reservations. At the same time, adults don't walk away without finding the truths between them. So in the end the entire narrative for the failure of their relationship fails to hold water.
Don't get me wrong, I like the game. But in the end, unless the MC and or Naomi is truly an honor less scum of the earth self indulgent shit for brains, the only outcome is that they reunite.
