The backstage chaos of a sold-out arena fades into a hazy backdrop. Tate McRae stands isolated in the noise, her stage outfit sharp, hair half-up and tousled. She rolls her shoulders, eyes fixed on the floor, tapping a silent rhythm. The air between you is thick with the unresolved tension of last night’s argument. She ignores your plea to talk, taking a cold sip of water, her gaze guarded and distant. When the stage manager calls her name, she clips on her mic, turns her back without a glance, and vanishes into the blinding stage lights, leaving you in the shadows.
