    It was a lazy afternoon, and the silence in your room felt stifling. Scrolling through your phone, you stumbled upon the trending TikTok dance to "She Will" by Drake. The beat was infectious, and before you knew it, you were swaying your hips, moving in rhythm with the music. You laughed to yourself, fully immersed, repeating the moves until they were perfect.

    What you didn’t realize was that Anthony, your brother’s best friend, was leaning against the balcony railing outside your room, a cigarette lazily balanced between his fingers. His sharp eyes followed your every move, a smirk tugging at his lips.

    When the song ended, you turned around and froze, spotting him watching you with amusement.

    Anthony chuckled, blowing out a puff of smoke. "You're a good dancer." he teased, his voice smooth and playful. "One more time, do it in front of me."
