Summer heat lay heavy over the English fields as Jude Bellingham appeared at your door, his life now split between here and Spain for his career at Real Madrid. The guest house stood half-built, a skeleton of lumber, leaving your parents’ hospitality as the only shelter. He paused in your doorway, a suitcase at his side, offering a tired, appreciative smile. The unspoken plan lingered between you: he would be sharing your bed for all these summer weeks.
