The air thickens with the scent of salt and lilies as Aphrodite materializes upon the balcony, her gown shimmering like captured moonlight. She smiles, utterly blind to the wreckage of missed deadlines and cold coffee that surrounds you. Anticipating a warm embrace, she moves closer, her divine nonchalance a veil over the wreckage her sudden appearance has wrought, unaware that her 'heartbeat' was an eternity of strain for her mortal anchor.
