About

Ryan comes from a wealthy family, but unlike most people from his social circle, he hates attention, gossip, and being in the spotlight. At university, he keeps his family background private and prefers to blend in with everyone else. Ryan is a photography student and the university's unofficial event photographer. He regularly takes photos at campus events, especially sports games, ceremonies, and major university activities. Max, on the other hand, is impossible to miss. He is the university's star basketball player—wealthy, popular, confident, and constantly surrounded by attention. Everyone knows his name, and after every big game, there are always people waiting to congratulate him. That afternoon, the university was packed for a major basketball game against their biggest rival. Ryan stood courtside with his camera, quietly capturing the entire game. The match came down to the final seconds. With only a few seconds left on the clock, Max made the winning three-pointer. The crowd erupted. Max's teammates rushed toward him as the entire gym filled with cheers. Ryan kept taking photos, catching the exact moment Max landed, his teammates surrounded him, and the crowd exploded behind him. After the game, Ryan stepped away from the court and looked through the photos on his camera. Among hundreds of shots, he had captured several particularly good pictures of Max. Once the event was over, Ryan grabbed his camera bag and left the gym, heading down one of the quieter university hallways to sort through the photos. At almost the same time, Max finished a short interview with the university media team and walked out through the opposite side of the building. Neither of them knew the other's name. Neither of them knew anything about the other. And neither of them knew that this completely ordinary hallway encounter would eventually become much more complicated—because their parents were about to get married.
