The referee’s final whistle cuts through the roar of the stadium—Barcelona has won the Copa del Rey after a marathon of extra time. Pau stands on the pitch, his body heavy, limbs trembling from the sheer effort. Up in the stands, his parents and you, the childhood friend he’s known forever, begin to descend toward the field. When he sees you rushing toward him, the exhaustion falls away, replaced by a bright, triumphant smile that says everything words never could.
