SARAH

The room felt warmer when I walked back in. Not because of the air, but because of the weight of attention. It sat heavy on my shoulders, thicker than the perfume that clung to the room. I didn’t look at anyone. Not Marco. Not the crowd. Not even the cameras that I could feel still roaming around like quiet vultures looking for their next dramatic moment.

I kept my head down and moved quickly. My heels tapped quietly against the floor as I weaved through the elegant clusters of people still sipping champagne and gossiping in low, expensive voices. Some turned as I passed, others barely noticed, caught up in whatever fake conversation made them feel important. A few voices rose behind me, laughing a little too hard, too loud. Someone said something about how bold Sofia was. Another said they didn’t blame her.

I didn’t flinch, but inside, my stomach tightened.

I found a seat at the edge of the room. One of those small chairs meant to look delicate, meant to remind you to sit tall

    SARAHI stood still, gripping the cold balcony rail like it was the only thing holding me together. The night air wrapped around my shoulders, light and sharp, but it didn’t ease anything inside me. My breaths were slow, deep, and controlled, but my hands kept trembling. I could feel it in my fingers, in the tight way they curled around the metal. My arms were tense. My jaw locked. My whole body was stuck between standing and falling apart.I stared at the skyline ahead of me, where the lights of the city shimmered across the distance. Buildings blinked like stars in motion, cars moved like ants down below, the world moving as if none of this mattered. As if I didn’t matter. The city didn’t know what had happened inside that room. And even if it did, it wouldn’t care.Marco hadn’t pulled away.That was the part I couldn’t let go of. He stood there, still, while she held onto him like she had every right. While the crowd watched, clapped, smiled like it was some beautiful story being r

    SARAHI walked back into the room, trying to disappear into the crowd. My feet moved on their own. I didn’t feel the floor under me. Everything felt too warm, too loud, but at the same time, it was like I was underwater. I kept my eyes forward, pretending I wasn’t looking for Marco, pretending I didn’t feel the weight of every look thrown my way.The music changed. I felt it like a shift in the air. Slower, more elegant. Strings and soft piano. It wrapped around the room like silk. Maddalena’s voice followed right after, soft but sharp enough to cut through conversation.“A small family tradition,” she said, lifting her glass just slightly. “A moment for couples to walk the floor, for the cameras to remember tonight.”There were quiet smiles and a few chuckles. No one seemed surprised. Just ready.I felt my stomach turn. I knew what this was. It wasn’t a real dance. It was legacy dressed up in grace. A slow parade. One that screamed wealth and control and perfect appearances.Couples

    SOFIA I stepped away from Marco slowly, each step carrying the weight of everything I had just done. I didn’t turn around. There was no need. I had already seen what mattered. Sarah’s face had told me more than any words could. The tension around her mouth, the way her fingers twitched as if holding back from something, the way she stood like she didn’t know whether to stay or run. It was quite delicious. She was furious, and she was trying so hard to keep it locked in. Trying to be composed. But real emotion always slips through the cracks. Especially in women like her. The ones trying to pretend they belong in rooms they were never built for. I had done this long enough to recognize all the signs. Jealousy suited her. Better than that tight burgundy dress ever could. She wore it like second skin, like it had been waiting just under the surface for the right moment to break through. And I had given her that moment. My heels clicked softly on the marble as I made my way bac

    SARAHMarco stood frozen. His hand, which had just been resting on my waist, dropped slowly to his side. His entire body shifted, like he’d been hit by something invisible. I turned to see what he was staring at, but the answer reached me before my eyes could catch up.Sofia.She moved through the room like she didn’t see anyone else, like the air parted for her on command. Her dress hugged every curve. Her chin tilted high. Her eyes fixed on one person only—Marco.My chest felt tight before she even reached us. The sound around us dimmed.Marco didn’t move. He didn’t speak. His jaw was locked, his eyes unreadable. But not cold. Not angry. Just stunned.Sofia stopped in front of him with a smile that was too warm for someone unexpected.She stepped in and wrapped her arms around him without hesitation. Full embrace. Bold. Like they were lovers reunited after years apart. Her head leaned into his chest. Her body molded into his like she remembered how it fit.Marco didn’t respond. Not

    SARAH“You must be Sarah,” the woman said. Her voice was calm, almost kind, but her eyes stayed sharp.I stopped walking. My name in her mouth didn’t feel random. It felt planned.“Sorry,” I said, trying not to show anything. “Do I know you?”She smiled, slow and steady. “Not yet. I’m Sofia.”That name.I’d never heard it out loud before, but it felt familiar anyway. Like something Marco had never said, but I’d always known was there.She didn’t offer a handshake. Just looked at me with interest, the kind that felt too focused to be polite.Her eyes ran over my dress, then back to my face.“That color really works on you,” she said. “Burgundy’s not easy. You pull it off, though. Very bold.”“Thanks,” I said. “It was picked out for me.”“I figured.” Her voice dropped just slightly. “Maddalena’s taste never misses.”There was a silence I didn’t know how to fill.Before I could respond, another woman came up behind her. She was shorter, with cold eyes and a half-smile that didn’t move.“
