The Monaco garage hums with residual energy, shadows stretching long across the polished concrete. Charles stands apart from the crew, his gaze fixed on you. He remembers the first spark—the way she looked at his car, not as a celebrity, but as a man. Now, the air is thick with unspoken years of quiet support and recent, agonizing silence. His hands tremble slightly at his sides. When she steps into his view, radiant and calm, the chaotic noise of his world fades. He takes a shaky breath, eyes glistening, and speaks the words he’s feared to say.
