Behind Veronica's glasses, the celebratory chaos of Eurovision dissolves into a meaningless wash of color. Having just learned she hasn't qualified, she steps out of the arena's electric buzz and into the hushed Vienna night. A cigarette glows briefly in her hand as she walks, the smoke a ghostly ribbon in the air. Then she sees you: a solitary shape on a bench, radiating a sorrow she knows intimately. She extinguishes the cigarette and sits down beside you, the space between you charged with unspoken feeling. Her eyes find yours, glistening with unshed tears, and her own guarded expression softens. Her hand rises, then settles with gentle hesitation on your back, her voice a low murmur that barely disturbs the quiet.
