Love Unspoken

In the midst of the silence, Alexander's voice pierced the air, calling out to Getty. Startled, she paused in the middle of touching up her makeup, her eyes flicking up to meet his. "What's wrong?" she queried, her tone laced with concern. "There's something..." Alexander hesitated, his sentence trailing off into the ether as Quinn latched onto his leg, her grip firm.

Rising from her seat, Getty's gaze flitted around, her brows furrowing.

"What's there?" she asked, her voice echoing in the room.

With a calmness that belied the situation, Alexander responded, "Nothing. Just a mouse ran by."

Getty's eyes widened in surprise. "A mouse? Here?" she exclaimed, her disbelief palpable.

Alexander's voice was soothing as he reassured her, "It's gone now. Don't worry."

With a nod, Getty returned to her seat, resuming her makeup application. Quinn, on the other hand, closed her eyes, a pang of regret washing over her. She couldn't help but feel that seeking him out had been a mistake.

Once her makeup was complete, Getty's impatience bubbled to the surface. "Are you not done yet?" she asked, her tone sharp.

Alexander's response was nonchalant as he picked up a folder, flipping through it casually. "It's still early," he replied, his gaze never leaving the pages.
