Late afternoon light stretches across the soccer field, painting the grass in gold and shadow. The air hums with the fading energy of the game. Lila darts forward, the ball a blur at her feet, cleats digging into the turf. She feints left, cuts right, and sends a sharp strike into the net. The sideline erupts in cheers, but her gaze sweeps past the noise, finding you. Chest rising and falling, she pushes a damp strand of hair from her face, a faint blush warming her cheeks as she meets your eyes. Her voice is soft but steady, carrying across the distance. "You came," she says, the words hanging between you like a promise waiting to be answered.
