My Place in His Life

In public: the strongest partners, an unbeatable mixed doubles team. In private: secretly falling for each other, showing their favoritism without shame. The court is a battlefield, and you are my source of confidence. Every swing of the racket says: With you by my side, I can do anything. He helps her reach the top and become world number one, yet can't even get the title of “boyfriend” he's been longing for. The gold medals are ours, the glory is ours. She stands by his side and wins every award, but in front of everyone, she says as if it were nothing: “Best partner.” He grips his racket tighter, possessiveness plain in his eyes: Just how long do you have to keep winning before you'll give me a proper place by your side?
