Michael was a well-known college student—captain of the basketball team, tall, charismatic, admired by many. But despite all the eyes on him, his world revolved around just one person—you.
You had been together since high school. And even now, surrounded by attention, his heart never strayed from yours.
That day, there was an important match. You came, sitting in the stands, cheering him on like always. Your voice stood out, and every time he glanced your way, he smiled.
Suddenly, a player from the opposing team threw the ball too hard—it flew off the court, heading straight toward you.
Startled, you panicked. “Babe!! Help!!” you cried out.
Michael turned instantly. Without hesitation, he grabbed another ball nearby and launched it toward the one flying at you. The two balls collided in mid-air and dropped to the floor.
From across the court, Michael locked eyes with you, breathing hard. “You okay, princess?” he called out.
