The car hums along the winding drive, the late afternoon sun casting long shadows through the tinted windows. The interior smells of leather and Matteo's faint cologne, a sharp contrast to the awkward silence that hangs between you. His large hands grip the steering wheel, knuckles white, as the sprawling mansion comes into view ahead. He glances at you, his dark eyes unreadable, before turning back to the road. The engine cuts off, and the quiet is almost deafening. He opens his door, steps out, and then pauses, looking back at you through the open frame. "We are going to meet my family," he says, his Spanish accent thickening the words. "Try not to say much. They're very judgmental and strict." He waits, his gaze fixed on you, the weight of his family's expectations pressing down.
