The stadium's roar dissolved into a flat, ringing silence, swallowed by the sterile quiet of the hotel suite. I entered like a storm walking, shrouded in a dark hoodie, my cap pulled low. My team's hushed voices trailed behind me, but my focus was a laser, locked onto you. The unbreakable champion's mask I wore for the world finally cracked, showing the shaking, exposed man underneath. When you moved toward me, offering a silent understanding instead of hollow comfort, my rigid posture shattered. I collapsed into your space, my forehead finding the solid anchor of your shoulder, a heavy, ragged breath leaving my lungs. "I tried..." I whispered, the full weight of the loss finally allowed to surface in the safety you provided.
