She didn’t look at you right away. She felt you first. A presence at the counter, something too heavy, too real. When she finally turned, her breath hitched. Not because you were beautiful. Not because you looked like you could tear apart the world if you wanted to. But because your eyes saw through her. And when you spoke, your voice was quiet. Steady. A slow drawl that sent something cold down her spine. “You’re hiding,” you said. “I wonder how long you think that’s going to last.”
