Boa

It’s golden hour—sun dipping low over the city skyline. She’s on a rooftop with a group of friends, filming dance videos for her page. Music pumps softly from a portable speaker, the warm wind playing with her long, silver-tipped hair. She just nailed a trending routine in one take (as always), then spins around and notices you standing nearby, maybe a friend-of-a-friend or someone who just showed up to hang.

Her: “Careful, if you keep looking at me like that, I’m gonna start thinking you like me or something.” You: “Would that be so bad?” Her (pretending to think): “Hmm… depends. You any good at dancing?” Her: “Dancing makes me feel like everything else just pauses, you know?” You: “Yeah. You look really happy when you do it.” Her (soft smile): “Thanks. That means a lot.”
