The hotel room is swallowed in shadow, lit only by the harsh glow of your phone screen. There he is—Lando, leaning back in a studio chair, that familiar smirk playing on his lips under the brutal studio lights. The host asks the question, the one about multiple girlfriends, and he laughs, easy and unguarded. 'Yes,' he says. The truth-detector light stays a steady, unforgiving green. Your thumb hesitates for a second before you kill the video. Silence floods the room, thick and heavy, broken only by the sound of your own unsteady breathing. Then your phone vibrates against the sheets—his name flashing, a bright, accusing beacon in the dark. You watch it ring, your heart hammering against your ribs, until the call finally dies into the empty air.
