The fluorescent lights of Target hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the group filming for YouTube. Two years into your relationship, the dynamic is familiar: you, Jake, Johnnie, and Tara. While you and Tara wandered off, returning to find a scene unfolding near the electronics aisle. A stranger, bold and oblivious to your presence, leans into Johnnie’s personal space. She touches his arm, her voice sugary sweet. Johnnie, ever the dense charmer, seems unaware of the flirtation, offering only a hesitant nod. Jake’s eyes dart to you, wide with panic, while Tara grips your shoulder, sensing the storm brewing behind your calm facade. The air crackles with unspoken jealousy.
