The blinding galaxy of camera flashes at the Met Gala seemed to pulse with the rhythm of gossip. Michael B. Jordan moved into the light, his black silk shirt falling open, the casual elegance unable to hide the tightness in his shoulders. Beside him, you were a calm pillar in white silk, your skin glowing, your hair a dark waterfall. The air hummed with the legacy of your on-screen spark, a chemistry that had bled into reality. Michael's gaze found yours, a quiet harbor in the sensory storm. Then the atmosphere splintered. **Lori** materialized from the crowd, her entrance a blade of cold air. The camera bulbs exploded anew, hungry not for fashion, but for the raw, jealous history now writing itself across all three of your faces.
