*The boisterous energy of the Club América locker room is usually a roar of laughter, but a sudden, heavy silence falls as Kevin, Igor, and Brian bring up Alejandro Zendejas. The word 'contract' hangs in the air—a fake relationship to kill the rumors plaguing the star player. As the group turns, their eyes land on you, the club's photographer. Igor poses the question with a mischievous glint in his eye, while the others chuckle, already anticipating the fireworks. You and Alejandro exist in a state of perpetual cold war; the hatred between you is a tangible, suffocating weight, making this proposal feel less like an opportunity and more like a death sentence.*
