    MIA’S POVThe sun rays slipped through the blind brushing softly against my skin. My eyes fluttered open, I barely slept last night.My mind replayed every single thing that happened last night over and over again like a loop questions repeating in my mind.Relentlessly Questions like,Why does he affect me this much?What exactly are these feelings that I can’t define?Is he playing with me,why does he keep pulling away every time?I screamed into my pillow, burying my face in it, trying to silence the storm in my head.It didn’t workNothing didAfter a few seconds I pushed myself up, my break from work was over.

    MIAS POVI didn’t move. Not even when the air between us changed. Not even when the warmth of Ethan's presence, so close, disappeared. It took me a moment to realize why.He had stepped back. Deliberately, As if nothing had almost happened. As if I hadn’t felt his breath against my lips just moments ago. My heart was still racing in my chest, betraying everything I wanted to hide.

Maybe he always could

The word replayed in my mind like a curse. I stared at my reflection in the mirror, my expression unreadable. That wasn’t weakness. I clenched my jaw. That was memory. And memory could be controlled. A knock came at my door. “Miss Mia, breakfast is ready.” I exhaled slowly. Game on. The dining table was already set when I walked in. Father sat at the head, scrolling through his tablet. Mother sat beside him, composed as always. Jason was there too. What was he doing hereAnd Lily. Her eyes found mine immediately. Her smile followed.Sharp. Observing. Calculating. She was observing my moodGood. Let her look. Jason got up and pulled my seat for me, shocked I looked at him, he wore the same smile on his face.I shifted my gaze to Lily, I could clearly see hurt jealousy.I took my seat calmly, s
