A week and a few days passed. The festive season was in full swing.
Christmas was just around the corner, and the world seemed brighter with decorations and lights.
People rushed about with last-minute shopping, holiday music playing in every store.
For the holidays, Damon didn't have any big plans. He chose to spend Christmas with his mom at home, just like every other year.
In the middle of all the chaos, the thought of a quiet day with her, eating a meal together and taking it easy was enough to calm him down.
His opponent, Calvin Oland, had been unusually quiet. After his loud podcast appearance, mocking Damon and throwing shade, he had gone silent.
It was strange, but Damon didn't dwell on it too much. Trash talk wasn't his style anyway.
Even when talking about Oland on the post-match, he was just saying what he thought.
