The Coach's Forbidden Play Chapter 96
Sage's POV The walk home from the coffee shop was a blur, my mind a chaotic whirlwind of guilt, anger and a terrifying new fear. Pauline's silent suffering, Professor Benjamin's predatory gaze and my own glaring ignorance—it all weighed on me like a heavy, suffocating blanket of dread. I replayed Chloe's words over and over, each syllable a fresh cut. I had been so lost in my own world, so consumed by my own problems that I had completely failed to see the danger lurking right under my nose, a danger that had been preying on the person I was supposed to care about most.As I rounded the corner to my apartment building, my phone buzzed in my hand. I glanced at the screen and my heart did a strange lurch. It was Andrew. My first instinct was to ignore it. The last thing I felt capable of doing was engaging in another complicated conversation. My relationship with Pauline felt like a smoldering ruin and the thought of facing Andrew, the man at the center of so much of my recent turmoil,

Sage's pov The morning after Pauline's devastating words, I forced myself to go to school. Every step felt heavy, each breath a conscious effort. The campus seemed muted, indifferent to the turmoil raging within me. I walked into class, my eyes immediately drifting to Pauline's usual seat. It was empty. She really had dropped the class. Her words from yesterday—about me not caring, not knowing anything about her life—echoed in my head, a constant, painful refrain. The raw truth of them burned.I tried to focus on the lecture but my mind kept drifting, replaying our last conversation. Was it really all my fault? Was I truly that self-centered? Lost in thought, I looked up and my gaze unexpectedly met the lecturer's. He was staring at me, a peculiar intensity in his eyes that made me shift uncomfortably. I quickly looked away, dismissing it as my own paranoia.But the thought about Pauline dropping the class nagged at me. She loved this subject. If it wasn't because of our fight, if

Sage's pov The faded photograph with its cryptic caption, haunted my thoughts through another sleepless night. "Proud to be a father." Kay. A baby. It gnawed at me, a relentless itch I couldn't scratch. The quiet, calm Kay, the seemingly basketball star was a father at twelve? It didn't add up, yet the image was undeniable.The next morning, driven by a desperate need for answers and a growing sense of unease, I went to the hospital. The same hospital I suspected the photo was taken in. I approached the records desk, my heart pounding with a mixture of apprehension and grim determination. "I need information," I began, trying to sound authoritative, "about a birth that occurred approximately fourteen years ago."The receptionist, a kind-faced woman with tired eyes, politely but firmly refused. "I'm sorry, ma'am but patient information is confidential. We cannot release anything without proper authorization."I pleaded, I explained, I even tried to subtly hint at a family emergency bu

Sage's povThe digital glow of Pauline's social media page, with Kay's smiling face beside her, burned into my retinas long after I finally managed to close my eyes. Sleep refused to come, chased away by a swirling vortex of fear, betrayal and a crushing sense of dread. Every calm, knowing glance from Kay, every evasive answer from Pauline, twisted into a painful knot in my stomach. The thought that Kay, the calm and seemingly honest man, might be orchestrating this or at the very least, enabling Pauline's distance was unbearable.The next morning, I dragged myself out of bed, feeling more exhausted than when I'd gone to sleep. My head throbbed, a dull ache mirroring the one in my heart. I went through the motions of getting ready for school, my mind replaying the images from Pauline's page.I arrived at our usual classroom, my eyes immediately scanning for Pauline. Her seat, usually occupied by her, was conspicuously empty. A fresh wave of worry washed over me. She had never missed a

Sage's POV A week had passed since the mysterious "MK" bouquet, and life, in its relentless way, had carried on. The confusing encounter with Kay still lingered in my mind, a persistent whisper of unease, but the demands of my routine had slowly begun to reassert themselves. The biggest demand, right now, was basketball.I was back in training, the familiar squeak of sneakers on the court and the rhythmic thud of the ball against the polished wood a welcome distraction. The intensity of practice, the physical exertion, allowed me to momentarily push aside the emotional turmoil that had plagued me for weeks. My team, the Wildcats, were preparing for a crucial game against our rivals, the Jaguars. The air was thick with anticipation, and every drill, every sprint, felt charged with the weight of expectation.The day of the game arrived, crackling with energy. The stadium was packed, a roaring sea of cheering fans. Pauline, a vibrant blur in her cheerleader uniform, was already out on t
The Coach's Forbidden Play Chapter 91
Sage's POV The rest of Professor Davies's class passed in a blur, my mind still reeling from the unexpected confrontation with Rina and the precarious lie I'd spun. Rina, for her part, remained silent, her usual smugness replaced by a subdued tension. The power dynamic between us had undeniably shifted, leaving her in a vulnerable position.As soon as the lecture ended, Pauline immediately turned to me, her brow furrowed with concern. "Sage, what on earth was that? Why did you just drag Rina out like that? Are you okay? What happened?" Her questions tumbled out, laced with genuine worry.I managed a weary smile, trying to sound nonchalant. "Oh, it was nothing, really," I began, choosing my words carefully. "Rina was just being her usual self, you know? She was making some passive-aggressive comments, and honestly, I was just so annoyed. I couldn't take it anymore. I just needed to get her away from me before I said something I'd regret." I omitted the part about her veiled threats,
