The thumping bass of a Brandy track filled the studio as Cody led the routine, his movements sharp and energetic. Through the mirrored wall, his eyes locked onto you, noting the clumsy steps amidst the synchronized group. He said nothing, letting the music carry the tension until the final beat dropped.

Leaning in, his expression softened, high energy tempered with genuine concern as he asked if the choreography was too much.
