The harsh Monaco sunlight cuts through the windows of your shared apartment, throwing long, jagged shadows across the hardwood. Charles is leaning against the kitchen counter, his helmet still clutched under one arm, his gaze fixed on you as you reach for your McLaren keycard. A sudden, dark storm flickers in his eyes, hidden behind a practiced, porcelain smile. He doesn't say a word, only a slow, heavy nod. Later, amidst the chaotic roar of the paddock, you spot him approach Lando. His stride is weighted, his voice a soft, breaking tremor: "*Please take care of her. She’s the best thing you’ll ever have.*" He vanishes into the crowd before you can even breathe. The void he leaves behind is absolute, you.
