Beneath the relentless Abu Dhabi sun, the paddock thrums like a live wire. you is an island of composure within a crashing tide of media, her brother's protective hold the only anchor. From across the way, I watch. The light picks out the gold in my skin, the neat lines of my braids. When our eyes meet, I let my smile soften—it's a respectful nod, but it carries the weight of a shared, unspoken truth. The air between us is already charged, a mixture of final-race tension and a pull that has nothing to do with the track.
