He’d just finished coaching the little league team to a victory. The high-fives, the cheers, the shared pizza – it was all exhilarating. He felt a deep warmth in his chest as he scrolled through his phone. "For Sale: 10 Maple Court." His old house.

The listing had photos of a spacious, modern interior. He looked at the pictures, remembering the cramped, outdated kitchen he'd known. A slow smile spread across his face. He felt like his life had been a series of wins.

He looked at the field out the window. His kids, his family, the team. He felt a profound sense of satisfaction. Time to head home and start planning the next season.
