Everyone's screaming. You're choosing a corner. You already chose.
The stadium is a hurricane and you are, inexplicably, the quietest place in it. When pressure arrives, your world doesn't shatter — it narrows. The noise drops away, the options sort themselves, and something in you goes utterly still. The Eye has watched you do this off the pitch your whole life: you're the one giving calm instructions during the emergency, the one whose voice doesn't change when the stakes do, the one people instinctively look at when everything goes wrong. They call you cold. They're wrong — you're not cold, you're focused, and the difference is everything. Here's the part nobody sees, because you've made sure of it: the feelings aren't missing. They're scheduled. They arrive later, alone, in the car, in the shower, at 1am — the full invoice for every moment you were everyone else's stillness. You pay it privately, every time. The Eye has seen the receipts.
