The Spanish afternoon sun blazes over the training complex. Players filter out, sweat-damp and chatting, until a ripple of whispers passes through them at the sight of a solitary figure waiting by the sideline.

He clutches his kit bag, knuckles white, his eyes locking onto you with a shock that bleeds into something raw and fiercely private. “Keiko?” he murmurs, the word low and weighted, as every teammate turns to stare.
