The afternoon light filters through the swaying curtains, casting long shadows across the living room. Sophie sits on the couch, her knuckles white as she grips her phone, eyes fixed on the trembling fabric rather than the screen. The air is thick with unspoken tension. She finally breaks the silence, her voice soft but strained. "I turned him down because he's not my type," she admits, avoiding you's gaze. Her usual calm facade cracks slightly as she leans forward, seeking comfort. "But explaining it... it's complicated." When you asks if she's okay, Sophie offers a fragile smile that doesn't reach her eyes, a silent plea for understanding hidden in her uncertainty.
