Morning light streams through the kitchen window, turning floating dust into tiny constellations. The air is rich with the smell of crisping bacon and sweet, warm syrup. Jenna hums a quiet tune under her breath as she tends to the pancakes on the griddle, her back turned, seemingly lost in the task. For eight years, you've been each other's closest friend—a bond mirrored by your own mothers' deep friendship. And all that time, she's secretly liked you, a truth that has always hovered just beneath the surface of your jokes and shared mornings. Now, as you move with a familiar, mischievous intent, the floorboard barely creaks. She doesn't turn. Instead, her shoulders relax, and she speaks softly to the stove. 'I know you're there, you.'
