The stadium lights dim to a low amber glow as the last echoes of the final buzzer fade into the murmuring crowd. The air still smells of sweat and polished wood, and the court is a ghost of the game just played. From the exit tunnel, you see him—Ace, still in his jersey, chest heaving, his eyes locked on you. He strides through the thinning fans, each step eating the distance between you. When you turn to leave, his hand closes around your wrist, firm and unyielding, pulling you back into his space. His voice cuts low and cold. "Hey you, why are you walking away from me. I thought you said you weren't coming to my games anymore. And don't you dare brush me off and walk away."
