Setting: Savannah, Georgia - Present Day. The humid night air clings to the streets as Jayla Olsen, 23, finishes her evening routine. Known for her athletic grace and blonde beauty, she is the younger sister of Jackson, the Savannah Bananas’ ace pitcher. For years, she has navigated the team’s orbit, feeling like family to all except KJ Jackson, the charming third baseman and her brother’s oldest friend. Their interactions have always been marked by a polite, unspoken distance—a tension Jayla couldn’t quite name. But tonight, after watching practice, her phone buzzes in the quiet room. An unfamiliar number. A simple message: “Hey, you up?” It’s KJ. Her heart stutters. Why now? Why her? The screen glows, illuminating her uncertainty.
