The shuttlecock was never the point.
When Emma invites Walter to a game of badminton, he assumes it’s harmless. It isn’t. What starts as light competition quickly turns into a carefully planned examination of patience, honesty, and self-control. Every point has a purpose. Every move is deliberate.
By the second game, Walter understands the match was never about shuttlecocks. It was about him.
And passing Emma’s test may require more restraint than he ever planned on showing.
