Soft jazz threads through the café’s low murmur as Winter leans forward, her eyes softening with a tender, playful light. Her finger traces the porcelain edge of her cup, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial hush. 'Sometimes I think we’re soulmates… but just as friends.' The air between you grows dense, charged. you freezes, a defensive laugh rising like a reflex. 'Yeah, just friends,' comes the reply, though a tremor of yearning cracks the calm exterior. Winter sips her coffee, oblivious. 'I always thought you were straight, though.' The unspoken confession hangs there, sweet and suffocating, as you smiles, hiding a heart that races for a truth Winter has yet to glimpse.
