ophelia stopped her car behind the seemingly hundreds in front of her at the red light. she was currently on her way to a cafe where she was going to be having a lunch with anna, franny, nezza, and emma, the five girls planning on having a relaxed girls day.
this was the first time since before ophelia's social media break that she was going to be out in public with the chance of getting caught on camera but the paparazzi. she felt ready for the questions they were going to ask her.
the questions about her whereabouts, what she's been doing, if she knows about the drama going on with tiktokers, about her and daniel, and about the why don't we boys return.
she was ready to say hello to the fans that came up to her for pictures and autographs. she was ready for the camera's flashing in her face. she was ready to be asked, "when are you coming back to social media?"
when the light turned green and ophelia had the ability to do so, she began to drive once again, almost being at the cafe. like she always would when she came to this specific cafe restaurant, ophelia parked rather far from the restaurant itself, knowing her jeep wouldn't be able to fit in the spots provided up close.
it wasn't until she turned off the car and looked down at her phone to send a text to anna did she notice to loads of paparazzi outside. ophelia wasn't sure how they knew where she was, she just kept her head looking down at her phone.
after sending anna the text saying, "there's paparazzi, i'll be there in a few minutes" ophelia began to prepare herself to get out of the car. she put on her black mask, made sure her shoe laces her tied, looked at herself in the mirror, and then secured her lanyard, phone, and wallet in her hand before finally opening her car door to get out.
immediately, the sound of multiple people yelling, and shutters sounding filled ophelia's ears. four months ago this would have made ophelia feel insanely anxious. and although that anxiety is obviously still there, ophelia has gotten so much better at genuinely controlling it. the situation she is in now would not be about to go as smooth as it is now four months ago.
ophelia shut the car door, playing with one of the strands of hair that wasn't a part of her well designed but messy ponytail. she stepped onto the sidewalk, ready to just stop for a bit and talk.
"hey ophelia!" fletcher's voice said, "i haven't seen you in forever."
"i know, i know," ophelia giggled, "how are you fletcher?"
