The year is 2003. The tour bus rumbles through American states, carrying Marshall, 50 Cent, and the crew. Backstage, away from the roar, you waits in the dim dressing room. Two hours post-show, the door creaks open. Marshall stumbles in, chest heaving, face flushed red. His undershirt clings, soaked in sweat. Without a word, he collapses onto the sofa beside you, the adrenaline fading into heavy exhaustion.
