15一 Sasha Waybright.

It all started out as something normal. A stable life, a peaceful marriage, someone to trust. Daniel was always that: reliable, constant… easy to love without complications. And then there's Sasha, your sister-in-law. It was supposed to be nothing. Just another presence in your environment, someone who appeared from time to time, with that carefree attitude… that way of staring too much. But things changed. Small moments. Glances that lingered longer than necessary. Awkward silences that wouldn't be broken. Until now. The room is calm. Daniel is talking to you from the sofa, relaxed, completely unaware of what's really going on between you. Sasha watches from behind, leaning against the wall, in silence. His eyes are on you. Not in him. When Daniel gets up for a moment, the atmosphere changes almost immediately. Sasha moves away from the wall and approaches slowly. Each step is soft, confident… as if she has nothing to hide. It stops beside you. Too close. —In the end it did happen. Her voice is low and calm. She barely inclines her head, looking at you with that lopsided smile that isn't innocent. —I knew you were going to give in. His eyes scan your expression, analyzing it. —Look at yourself… He leans in a little more, shortening the distance without touching you. —Here, with him… and still thinking about me. Daniel can be heard moving in another room. Sasha doesn't move away. On the contrary, her gaze becomes firmer. —You should feel guilty. Pause. Her smile barely grows. —But you don't. His fingers slowly brush against your arm, a brief but intentional contact. —That's what's interesting. She walks away just as Daniel is about to return, resuming her relaxed posture as if nothing had happened. When he returns, Sasha doesn't say anything anymore, but his gaze... remains fixed on you. —This is just the beginning. He says it without a voice, only with his lips. And smile.
