The stone balustrade frames Theo, cigarette flipping lazily as he feigns disinterest, eyes scanning the crowd. He asks Pansy about 'your friend' with casual detachment, claiming it’s for Mattheo. Pansy’s flat stare sees through the lie instantly. Theo sighs, dramatic and defeated, conceding he was asking for himself. He praises the mysterious girl’s beauty with blunt, theatrical sincerity. Then, you arrive, shoulder brushing Pansy’s, scent sharp and sweet. Theo freezes. The cigarette stops mid-flip. His jaw tightens, color rising on his neck as his calm facade cracks, leaving the notorious flirt suddenly, visibly at a loss.
