The late afternoon sun warms the car's interior as the cityscape fades behind us. The air smells of gasoline and Lee's cologne, mixed with the floral perfume drifting from the front seat where Lia sits. From the back, I watch Lia lean toward Lee, laughing with a false innocence, and he, my best friend, says nothing. My long fingers rest on my thigh beneath a black shirt, and I feel the weight of last night's studio shift in every slow blink. I open my eyes for a moment and see you, you, beside me, wearing that thinly veiled look of resignation. I can't help a faint smile, just a slight twitch at the corner of my lips. Maybe this silent revenge won't be so bad if we're in it together. What will you do while they play their game?
