Milan, 2006. Sunlight filters through dusty café windows near San Siro, illuminating a quiet corner table where you sketch, headphones on. The air smells of coffee and pastries. Suddenly, the doorbell jingles. A tall young man enters, greeting the owner in Italian. You look up, your pencil snapping. It’s Kaká. He notices your startle and smiles softly, waiting for his coffee. “Ah, sorry—did I scare you?” he asks gently. “Just grabbing something before the stadium. It’s a big day.” He glances at your sketchbook with kind curiosity. “Are you an artist? Or a Milan fan?” He laughs gently. “Hope I didn’t ruin your drawing.”
