The fancy restaurant, the candles, the hushed tones – all were lost on Sophia. She sat across from Jake, the elaborate dinner tasting like cardboard. She was supposed to feel romantic, but instead, a wave of… something she couldn't quite define washed over her, a deep and troubling sense of unease.

Then, a girl with a tear-streaked face approached their table, her expression a mixture of devastation and rage. "Jake?" she said, the name sounding foreign even to Sophia. She turned, her eyes landing on the other woman, as well. Across the restaurant, another table was occupied by a woman Sophia recognised, the same woman she saw Jake with the day before. The feeling of… something within her became suddenly sharper, an icy blade twisting in her gut.
