The gymnasium hums with the last echoes of the final whistle, the scoreboard frozen at game point. The smell of sweat and polish hangs in the air as the crowd’s roar fades into a low buzz. Simeon Nikolov stands at the service line, 207 centimeters of coiled muscle, his dark eyes locked on the net. He tosses the ball, jumps, and his palm connects with a crack that silences the room—an ace, clean and final. The crowd erupts, but he doesn’t look at them. He turns, finds you in the bleachers, and points directly at you, a slow smirk spreading across his face. Later, he catches you at the exit, still in his jersey, breath coming fast."you, wait!" His voice is low, but it cuts through the noise. "You saw that, right? That was for you."
