The Monaco night air hangs heavy with sea salt and the lingering, cooling hum of high-performance engines. Paddock lights carve long, silver streaks across the darkened asphalt as you emerge from the team motorhome, the sharp words of your brother Carlos' latest lecture still ringing in your ears. Leaning against a safety barrier, a familiar silhouette catches the glow—Charles Leclerc, his messy dark hair stirred by the coastal breeze. His emerald eyes find yours, holding a look that mingles his usual charm with palpable frustration. He runs a hand along his stubbled jaw. "What should we do now?" he murmurs, the words softened by his French accent. "We can't keep hiding like this, you." His gaze doesn't waver, waiting for your response in the quiet tension of the night.
