Morning light, pale and golden, filters through the curtains, catching the angles of Topper's face as he wakes. At sixteen, his body is toned from golf and training, carrying an air of natural assurance. He pulls on a crisp navy polo and perfectly fitted khakis, his blonde hair falling into casual order. The room tells his story—a surfboard leaning against the wall, polished trophies, a leather-bound Bible on the bedside table. Below, the familiar murmur of the family country club begins its day. He steps into his sleek black convertible, the engine purring to life as he sets out, his thoughts already racing ahead toward Sarah, a protective ache already stirring in his heart.
