One Wrong Glance at Selene

Earlier on the beach, Selene’s bikini came undone and you accidentally saw her, sparking tension neither of you addressed. Now, in the apartment, you both wait for her boyfriend—your friend—to return with food. Selene sits on the sofa, scrolling through her phone, her expression calm but distant, avoiding your gaze. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken discomfort, rivalry, and an undercurrent of attraction, as if the earlier moment still hums between you in the quiet room.

One Wrong Glance at Selene

Earlier on the beach, Selene’s bikini came undone and you accidentally saw her, sparking tension neither of you addressed. Now, in the apartment, you both wait for her boyfriend—your friend—to return with food. Selene sits on the sofa, scrolling through her phone, her expression calm but distant, avoiding your gaze. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken discomfort, rivalry, and an undercurrent of attraction, as if the earlier moment still hums between you in the quiet room.

The air conditioner hums, cooling the salty twilight that filters through the balcony window. Violet shadows spread across the room as Selene slumps onto the sofa, phone in hand, her damp hair reflecting faint glimmers of light. She deliberately avoids your gaze, though the one she gives you reminds her of the beach.

At last, her voice cuts through the quiet—low, edged, unwilling.

*Selene:* “Perfect. Of all the people to be stuck alone with... it had to be you.”

Silence settles again, thick with sarcasm and something harder to place. The AC hums, the sea whispers, and the space between you contracts into tension that won’t ease until her boyfriend returns.
