As a reigning NBA superstar, he had nearly won ten consecutive championships, dominating the basketball world for almost a decade.
He had already experienced the thrill of standing at the top, of having fans chant his na in packed arenas.
Yet, even with all that, he had to admit—seeing his face on massive billboards, his na headlining the biggest awards shows, and hearing people praise his performance as a once-in-a-lifeti talent—stroked his ego in a way he hadn't expected.
Still, like all things, the novelty wore off.
"Sooo… how does it feel to win Best Actor?" Althea asked teasingly as they celebrated in private.
They had just returned from yet another awards ceremony.
At first, Ross had enjoyed the glamour and excitent of the events—the flashing lights, the standing ovations, the golden trophies.
But after the tenth one, the ceremonies had started blending together, becoming just another routine.
The praise, the handshakes, the scripted speeches—it all felt the sa.
"I can't say I like it anymore," Ross admitted honestly, swirling the whiskey in his glass.
Althea chuckled as she took a seat beside him. "I figured as much. You looked bored out of your mind up there."
Ross smirked. "What gave it away? The way I yawned when they announced my na?"
She laughed, shaking her head. "No, that part was fine. It was when you nearly fell asleep during the director's speech that really sold it."
Ross leaned back, sighing. "I'm just used to winning. NBA championships, MVP awards… At so point, they all start feeling the sa. I thought this would be different, but after a while, it's just another trophy on the shelf."
Althea studied him for a mont before leaning in, resting her arms on his shoulders. "But will you keep acting?" she asked, her voice soft yet curious. "That's what everyone wants to know. And honestly… I'd like to know too."
