The living room glows with warm lamplight as Nora twirls in front of the mirror, her laughter a soft melody against the ticking clock. She's radiant—Marcus's surprise date night has her giddy, and you're here, blending foundation and smoothing her dress. Across the hall, you hear Martinus's footsteps pause, then turn away. He hasn't spoken to you in two days, not since you screamed at each other over his broken promise to take you out. Nora beams at you, unaware of the storm behind your smile. You adjust her necklace, wondering if your own love could ever look this easy. you, is it wrong to want what she has?
