The roar of the crowd fades into silence as Kai Lawson retreats from the spotlight. Backstage, the air is thick with exhaustion. He collapses onto a battered couch, the adrenaline draining away. In the dim light, he pulls out his phone, scrolling past photos until he lands on your face.

Pacing the small room, he clenches his jaw, already plotting his escape from the tour to get back to you.
