Noah's POV I stared at my reflection in the locker room mirror for a long moment.The hand wraps were secured neatly around both of my hands. A black hoodie covered part of my body, while a small bag filled with my gear sat ready on the chair beside me.Today was fight day.For some reason, everything felt different compared to normal training days. Even the morning air felt heavier. Voices outside sounded louder, footsteps constantly moving back and forth.I took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Calm down.I had trained all this time for today. The locker room door opened.The coach walked in with a clipboard in his hand.“Noah.”I immediately turned toward him.“We need to leave now,” he said. “The bus is ready.”I gave a small nod.“Yeah.”The coach stared at me for a few seconds longer before walking closer.Now he stood right in front of me. His expres

Noah's POVI sat by the window on the bus. Put my bag next to me. The bus started moving away from the training center.I rested my head on the window. Watched the city streets get busier in the morning. My hand tightened around my phone in my hoodie pocket without me realizing it. I unlocked the screen for a moment.There was a message from Mom a minutes ago.[We’re on our way. Good luck!]I looked at the message for a time.Then I smiled a little to myself.It was weird.Usually Moms excessive worrying annoyed me.Now it makes me feel calmer.I typed a reply.[Drive safely.]After sending it I locked my phone again. Stared ahead.My heart was still beating fast.This time it wasn’t because I was afraid of being alone.Because now I knew there would be someone in the audience today who

Noah's POV Spectators had already started filling the place since earlier in the afternoon. Loud music blasted through the speakers while staff members rushed back and forth around the building.Other fighters were also preparing themselves with serious expressions on their faces. Some looked calm, while others looked just as nervous as I felt.I adjusted the bag on my shoulder while taking a slow breath. Today truly felt real now.The coach called for us to head straight into the participants’ area. I walked together with the others toward the arena hallway.But my steps suddenly slowed when my eyes accidentally caught sight of something in the audience stands. And the moment I realized what it was, I stopped completely.Mommy and Daddy were already sitting there. They had arrived earlier than I expected.What almost made me want to hide my face immediately was the huge banner they were holding. I instantly closed my eyes for a second out of e

Noah's POV My breathing was a mess.That was the only thing running through my mind as my body nearly got trapped against the ring ropes. My arms felt heavy, my jaw throbbed from the earlier hit, and the roar of the crowd blended into a dizzying hum inside my ears.My opponent still stood in front of me with a confident stare.As if he already knew I was running out of energy.I stepped back half a pace while trying to steady my breathing.Don’t fall.Don’t lose now.Coach kept shouting from outside the ring, but my head was too crowded to catch his words clearly.“Noah!”That voice cut through all the noise.Mommy.I glanced toward the audience for a second.Mommy stood there gripping that huge banner with a panicked expression. Daddy stood beside her, watching the match with tense eyes.Then Mommy shouted again.“Noah, don’t give up!”My chest tightened instantly.Not because of exhaustion. Something else hit me

Noah's POV I looked up toward the stands.Mommy was. Laughing at the same time hugging Daddy tightly before waving that giant banner again like the proudest person in the world.Nearby Rachel was still standing there watching me.This time her gaze wasn’t cold. Instead it held something softer.I let out a breath.Then without realizing it I smiled a little.Everything I went through finally felt worth it.Once the match ended and the atmosphere calmed down a little I finally climbed down from the ring with my body feeling weak.My breathing still hadn’t fully returned to normal sweat soaking my face and neck yet somehow my chest felt light.Really light.After a few steps down Mommy ran toward me first.“Noah!"The second she wrapped me in a tight hug.I stumbled slightly becaus

Sienna's POV I still couldn’t stop smiling after Noah’s match ended. It felt like a huge weight had finally been lifted off my chest. Watching Noah stand in that ring, fighting until the very end, then winning honestly, I still could barely believe it. My son had really grown up. Maybe all this time, I’d been so busy being afraid that I forgot to see that. I stood beside Noah, occasionally fixing his slightly messy hair damp from sweat. The bouquet was still in his hands while Liam stayed busy checking the photos he had taken earlier. “Oh, this one’s good,” I said while looking at his phone screen. “You can totally see Noah smiling.” “Mommy.” Noah complained immediately, embarrassed. I laughed softly. “What? You look handsome.” Noah let out a helpless sigh right away. Honestly It had been so long since I’d seen that expression on him. A relaxed expression. One that wasn’t

Sienna's POV The next evening, we finally really went out to eat together.I chose a warm, cozy restaurant filled with soft golden lights that made the atmosphere feel calm. Noah sat across from me while Liam stayed beside me. Somehow just seeing Noah sitting there was enough to make my heart feel peaceful.It still didn’t feel real.A few days ago, I was terrified of losing him.Now Noah was here, having dinner with us while occasionally laughing softly at Liam’s jokes.I had been watching him the entire time.The way Noah ate so enthusiastically.The way he had started talking more again.The way he occasionally complained whenever I kept adding more food onto his plate.“Mommy, enough.”“Noah, finish your vegetables.”“I already ate a lot.”“Still not enough.”Noah immediately let out a long sigh with a helpless expression that made Liam chuckle.

Emily's POV That morning was supposed to be peaceful.I was doing pilates in my favorite private studio, a spacious room with huge glass walls overlooking the small garden in the center of the house. Sunlight streamed in softly, the sound of a small fountain felt calming, and the scent of lavender filled the air.Slowly, I controlled my breathing while holding my position on the mat. The pilates instructor who came every week kept giving gentle instructions, but my mind wasn’t focused at all this morning.Too many things were running through my head.Rachel.Noah.The match from last night that had been all over social media since early morning.I honestly hadn’t intended to look at any of it. Yet even when I opened my phone just to reply to work emails, videos of Noah winning in the ring still appeared everywhere.People were talking about him.Praising his courage.Repeating his name over and over again.What irritated m

Emily's POV Rachel did not know what it felt like to always be compared. She did not know what it felt like to always lose. Yet the words stayed trapped in my throat. There was no way I could say everything now, especially not in front of Rachel. Robert finally walked closer until he was standing right in front of me. His cold gaze never left my face. “I don’t care about whatever personal issues you people had in the past,” he said coldly. “But don’t drag Rachel into it.” My body immediately tensed. Our eyes met for a few seconds, and I knew. He was starting to realize there was something much bigger behind all of this. I quickly looked away and let out a faint laugh. “You’re all overreacting.” “Really?” Robert’s voice was low now. Dangerous. “Because from what I can see, you’re the one getting overly emotional every time Noah’s name is mentioned.”

Noah's POV The days finally started to feel normal again. Or at least close to normal. I went back to college like usual. No more training until midnight, no more sneaking out of the hospital, no more huge fights with Mommy every single day. Everything slowly became calmer. That morning, I had just finished showering and walked downstairs while drying my hair with the small towel hanging over my shoulder. The moment I reached the first floor, the smell of food immediately greeted me. I already knew. Mommy must’ve woken up early again. I stepped into the dining room, and sure enough, the table was already full of food. Eggs, warm soup, bread, fruit, even juice that was obviously homemade. Mommy, who was pouring milk, immediately turned when she saw me. “Noah!” Her face instantly brightened. “Come eat breakfast.” I chuckled softly. “Morning, Mom.” Dad
