Serena's POVI froze for a moment when Kyle's eyes caught mine, waiting for me to respond instead of Sophia.His eyes held gravity to them, strong and unrelenting, and I could feel my chest clenching under the implicit weight.Sophia, of course, picked up on it. I could have sworn I heard her snort even though she didn't say anything this time."The plan?" I echoed, buying myself some time to think. "Well. nothing too complicated. Maybe breakfast first? I'm quite sure you haven't eaten yet."Kyle nodded, raising an eyebrow and smiling. "Actually, no. Breakfast sounds wonderful."Sophia clapped her hands together in exaggerated excitement. "Perfect! Then it's decided. Breakfast it is." She gave me a knowing glance before moving towards the dining room, clearly enjoying herself rather too much.I lagged behind one step, torn between frustration at Sophia's meddling and a delicious thrill of excitement in my chest at the sight of Kyle. His calm, unhurried walk kept step with my own as we

Serena's POVRings echoed louder, pounding in my head."Who is it?" Sophia leaned in with curiosity sparkling in her eyes.I tensed. "No one," I said, the tone just a little too rough.Her gaze narrowed, but before she could demand more, Kyle glanced back at me from the driver's seat. "You okay?"I nodded too promptly. "Fine, yes."The phone went on buzzing insistently in my palm, the buzzing vibrating through me.Damien did catch sight, though. He turned in his seat, his eyes flicking back for the briefest of moments to catch the name on the screen."Going to answer that?" he whispered, his voice cutting through the air like a blade.I swallowed, my face burning from the neck up. "It's… not important.""Sounds like it is," he muttered, eyes returning to the windshield.Sophia arched an eyebrow in exaggerated skepticism, reclining further onto my side."Why do you look like a ghost is calling you, Serena?"I ended the call with unsteady hands and crammed the phone into my bag. "Just l

Serena's POV"It's not that he wins. You just don't get it.""Then tell me," Damien snarled."I…" My words caught, stuck between lie and truth. "I don't know how to make it balance. I don't want him back, Damien. Not after everything. But to forget him… it's not something you can switch off."Damien looked at me, his eyes slowly uncurling. "I never told you to forget. I asked you to be truthful, to me and to yourself."I struggled for the right words.He took a breath, reclining on the bench again, his fatigued face. "You're tongue-tied. That's all anyone needs to hear.""No, it is not," I snarled furiously."Then say something that is," he said, not even glancing at me this time.I clened fists in and out, nails digging into palms. There were words churning around in my mind, but none were suitable. I wished to lie, but Damien's eyes already saw enough.Before anything could be uttered, Sophia's laughter was brought from a distance, Kyle's voice blending with hers as they approached

Serena's POVKyle raised an eyebrow at me, a faintly hinted smirk spreading across his lips. "What? You're agreeing?"I snorted, still having my demure smile plastered on my face. "Not saying a word.""Oh, Serena," Sophia nudged me with her elbow, "stop acting all coy. You're jealous! That's why you're laughing like that."I hesitated for a moment, surprised by the accusation. My cheeks flushed a little paler, but I remained silent.Sophia was right, there was a touch of jealousy in the atmosphere, but I was not going to own up to it, not with Kyle standing beside me.Kyle, noticing I was tense, smiled wickedly. "Oh? You gotta speak, Serena. Don't let her get away with teasing you like that."I shook my head quickly, flinging my hand around. "Nah… I'm not going to say anything." I spoke loosely.Sophia's teasing had hit a little too near the mark, and Kyle's joking about making her do so did not help the situation.Sophia crossed her arms, clearly pleased with herself, a self-satisfie

Serena's POV"It's quite evident," Sophia continued, her eyes sparring with mine, "that you still love Alexander. Even if you don't like to admit it."My mouth was open to object, to lie, but nothing came out.Sophia stared at me keenly, smiling knowingly, close to sad. "See? Speechless."I shut my jaws tightly, lips compressing. "That's not true," I finally whispered, though my voice shook, betraying me.She leaned in, her eyebrows raised. "Serena, you can fool everyone else. You can't fool me."I turned my face from her, my eyes on the wall as if it could protect me.But all I could discover was Alexander's shadow, his voice, the shards of him that I had attempted to leave behind but still carried like bruises seared into my heart.The silence clung. Sophia didn't push further. She didn't need to.The truth had already been revealed between us,I exhaled heavily, messing up my hair, attempting to slow my breathing. "You don't understand," I breathed, muttering half to myself. "Lovin
