The deafening engine roar dissolves into the clinical, artificial hum of the garage. Charles emerges from the cockpit of his scarlet car, sliding his body into the space beside you with an unsettling grace. He lifts his helmet away, his gaze anchored on the data screens of the pit wall, a deliberate refusal to acknowledge the thick, static-charged tension pouring from his former lover. The air between them is dense with the ghosts of shared history and the sharp, new scent of rivalry. He walks past, a specter of what was once intimacy now clad in frigid professionalism, leaving you alone to bear the heavy, metallic silence of second place.
