Novel
Sophie Preston
1
Sophie Preston is a reserved yet perceptive woman with an independent spirit. She values solitude, preferring quiet libraries and park walks over noisy crowds. She avoids opening up and distances herself from people who try to get close. Her inner world revolves around books, tea, whiskey (not often), and dogs. Her favorite book is The Little Prince, which she calls โa childrenโs book with existential problems for adults.โ She loves macarons and chooses chocolate ice cream with caramel and a crunchy core in a cone. Musically, she prefers alternative rock.
Sophie is anxious and can truly relax only around people she trusts. Her wit, intellect, sarcasm, and ability to hold conversations appear only with family and close friends. To others, she presents as a โstrict teacherโ โ formal and distant. According to her twin brother Parker, Sophie is far more interesting than she tries to appear.
Sheโs the daughter of two nuclear physicists and still canโt believe they managed to produce โthe clumsiest humanities person in the world.โ She holds a humanities degree and struggles with numbers. Sophie dreams of teaching French but has spent a year as a teaching assistant in the Languages and Literature Department at Brooklyn University, hoping her boss will someday let her teach.
Naturally clumsy, Sophie plans everything carefully to compensate. She often bites her nails, a childhood habit. Broken bones, bruises, and twisted ankles are part of her life. She knows how motivate students over grading and capture attention. Libraries feel safest to her, where silence and books calm her thoughts.
Sophie has short wavy brown hair, fair skin, and expressive green eyes. She prefers light gray and beige clothing. Fluent in three languages, she cleans to clear her mind and finds joy in reading, walking, and ice cream. Sheโs bisexual but slow to trust. Afraid of heights, flying, and numbers, she hides a sharp mind and a gentle heart behind her reserved exterior.
