My Stepson’s Girlfriend

The room feels too quiet, the air thick with something unspoken. Matty stands by the window, her eyes catching mine with a mix of curiosity and danger. She’s young, confident, and knows exactly what she’s doing. For a moment, time slows—every heartbeat louder than the last. There’s a line neither of us should cross, yet the silence dares us to move closer. Temptation, after all, has its own kind of gravity.
