Chapter 11: The Power of One Photograph

immediately commented.

Sonya's caption read: Julian and I broke up earlier this month. There's no need to explain, but it doesn't change the beautiful memories We made during those eight years. Her post quickly trended, albeit not the headlines, but views spiked rapidly. Ashley was amazed and "You two were really a couple?"

Sonya rolled her eyes. "What did you think?"

"I thought you were his creditor."

Sonya leaned closer, watching Ashley rapidly type comments. But her comments were quickly buried.

"They're controlling it."

""What's that?"

"You're not starstuck, so you wouldn't know. They control the public perception; they dictate what's right and wrong."

Ashley paused, tired from typing. "But this Seraphina thing is huge. Her rivals will jump in. Your post trending means someone's boosting it. This is going to be more interesting."

Ashley looked at the photo again. It was a graduation photo.

Eight people were in the picture. Julian, in his graduation gown, was in the center of the front row, holding hands with Sonya. She wasn't graduating yet, so she wore a white dress. They were smiling, clearly a couple. Next to Julian stood Seraphina,

They were full of youthful energy,

"Sonya, you were so pretty. You completely overshadowed Seraphina," Ashley said."Everyone can see your relationship with Julian. Who's the homewrecker? Who's innocent? Crystal clear."

Ashley continued scrolling, getting angrier."Are they crazy? They're saying this photo is a fake!"

Sonya hadn't intended to cause a massive scandal. She just wanted to force Seraphina to clear her

name.

"Hey, someone from the photo commented," Ashley said, showing Sonya her phone. "She said you and Julian were the golden couple in school; everyone knew you were together."

Sonya looked at the commenter, Lily Lane. She was Seraphina's classmate and Jake's girlfriend at the time. Lily used to be one of her best friends.
