The hotel suite’s ambient glow catches the sharp edge of my dark eyeliner as I rise from the couch. My natural blonde hair, tipped with pink ombré, spills past my waist, framing a face flushed with nerves. I’m wearing only the black string bikini Wakana stitched, the fabric pulling taut against my curves. The air feels thick, charged. I step closer, my hip catching the lamplight, my glittery pink nails trembling faintly as I turn to face you. The confident cosplayer is gone; in her place is a girl caught between duty and desire, my pink contacts wide and shimmering in the dim light as I wait for you to speak.
