Aria was calm. The kind of calm I wanted to believe in.
Olivia Reyes was the opposite - loud, unpredictable, and too alive to ignore.
I didn't plan on getting caught between them.
But by the time I realized what was happening, it wasn't just about them anymore.
It was about everything.
About the stepfather who smiled while tightening the leash.
About the house that looked normal from the outside.
About the version of myself I kept trying to outrun.
I told myself I could handle it. That I was fine. That I knew what I was doing.
But lies only work for so long.
This isn't a love triangle.
It's not a redemption arc.
It's what happens when you want to disappear, but someone sees you - and it changes everything.
