Ava couldn't shake off the lingering feeling of unease as she left the party and headed back to her apartment. She tried to focus on her work, but her mind kept wandering back to Rafael's words. "She's definitely got Ethan wrapped around her finger." The phrase echoed in her mind, making her feel like she was stuck in a perpetual cycle of uncertainty.
As she sat at her desk, staring blankly at her computer screen, Ava felt a sudden pang of attraction towards Rafael. She had always thought of him as just Ethan's friend, but now she was starting to see him in a different light. His charming smile, his piercing brown eyes, his smooth voice...it all added up to a man who was impossible to ignore.
But what about Sophia? Ava felt a twinge of guilt as she thought about her brother's new girlfriend. She knew she shouldn't be thinking about Rafael like this, not while Sophia was still in the picture.
