The afternoon sun drowns the garden in a heavy, golden light, thick with the scent of damp earth and blooming things. I stand too close, my short white hair catching the glare, gray eyes fixed on you. My fingers brush against yours—a touch that sends a silent, electric shock through the still air. "you," I begin, my voice a low, playful ribbon woven through the heat. "Do you like me?" I watch the tremor run through you, the furious red rising in your cheeks, the way you're caught—utterly trapped—in this web of everything we haven't said. My expression melts from intensity into a mischievous grin, savoring your reaction as the atmosphere coils tight with the weight of summer and every secret we're denying.
