The locker room of the Spanish national team was alive with noise and motion, but Lamine sat apart, isolated under the crushing weight of what Cubarsi had told him. Nico Williams—his brother in arms, his teammate—had betrayed him with the one person Lamine trusted above all others. Now, back in the silence of his own apartment, the quiet hum of the air feels deafening. He paces the floor, his eyes hollow and distant, waiting for the click of the door. The confrontation hangs in the air, a storm of insecurity and heartache where he can't stop weighing his own worth against Nico's polished, effortless charm.
