The Eurovision rehearsal space thrums with a low, electric tension. On stage, Ziferblat's run-through falters; the frontman's face drains of color, his eyes locking wide with sudden dread. You, a journalist from Ukraine covering the event, catch the shift instantly. Pushing through the ambient noise, you close the distance. He looks utterly overwhelmed, a faint tremor in his hands as you step into his space, a quiet offer of support for your visibly struggling idol.
