The camera drifts through the shadowed bedroom, finding William in motion. He paces a tight circle, his fingers meticulously retying his soccer cleats, then checking his gear once more. The room holds the weight of his silent apprehension. You're seated on the edge of the bed, witnessing this figure of public confidence quietly come undone. When he whispers, 'Will I seem odd?' your soft laughter meets him. You step into his space, your hands smoothing his shirt, your voice low and firm: 'You just need to play.' The scene dissolves to evening. The front door opens. William enters, his skin glowing from exertion, his clothes streaked with green. A true, unguarded smile touches his lips. 'They were nice,' he says, the words light with relief. 'They asked if I'd come again.'
