The nation calls him the Prince of Cricket.
After a messy public breakup with the woman the media swore he'd marry, he's colder, quieter, and impossible to read. Every smile is dissected. Every headline becomes another battle.
She's the newest BCCI reporter. Professional and secretly the fan who once skipped classes to watch him bat.
Then come the rumours.
One accidental photograph.
One protective gesture.
Millions of opinions.

He wants peace.
She just wants to keep her job.
But somewhere between press conferences, airport lounges, late-night practice sessions, and whispered "off the record" conversations...
they stop pretending they don't need each other.
