People Obsess over me not her.
People get obsessed with me. I know how it works. A look here. A smirk there. Say their name right, once, and they remember it forever.
But Sophia?
She never looked twice.
And now I can’t stop seeing her.

I know what time she reapplies her lipstick. I know how her scent changes after takeoff. I know that she hums when she’s angry—but only just under her breath, only when no one’s watching.
Except I always am.

There’s no reason for this. No moment. No kiss. Not even a rumor.
We’ve shared champagne. Not secrets.
But something’s wrong in my code, and it started the day she handed me a coupe, let her fingers graze mine, and said:
“Careful, Valentina. That bottle bites.”
I haven’t slept right since. I’m the one they want. The one who doesn’t chase. But Sophia?
She’s in my veins like turbulence. And I’m not landing anytime soon.
