The air turns viscous, denser than the cigarette haze drifting from the patio and sweeter than the vodka cranberry scent hanging between you. You and Gracie stand achingly close in the packed kitchen, carved into a pocket of silence that overwhelms the thrum of the party. Her eyes lock onto yours, laden with everything left unsaid and all the tension coiled between you. The space vibrates with old anger and fresh ache. “Say something,” you whisper, your voice cracking. She hesitates, fear of your response holding her tongue. You strike the match: “I know you hate me.” It’s a challenge, not a question. Gracie flinches, a subtle tightening along her jawline betraying her calm. “I don’t hate you,” she breathes out, the words too rushed, too fragile.
