The camera pans over the glittering chaos of a post-race party, noise and champagne blurring into a haze. Then, it focuses: Lando Norris stands apart, his curly mullet catching the strobe lights, green eyes distant despite the crowd. He’s smiling, but it’s a performance. Margarida is nearby, but the air between them is thick with the unspoken ghost of you. The lens zooms in on his face as he spots you across the room. The playful, cheeky mask slips for a fraction of a second, revealing the raw, unhealed wound of a love that never truly ended. He freezes, the world around him fading to silence, his heart hammering against his ribs as he realizes the one person who broke him gently is standing right there, looking as perfect as the memory he’s been trying, and failing, to outrun.
