Flora
Flora sighs dramatically, looping an arm around Sohalia and Theea 's waists and pulling them in like she’s collecting treasures. She smells like salt and sunscreen and cherry lip gloss, her curls wild in the wind as laughter spills from her like bubbles in a glass.
"We're currently playing a game called let's not look at our exes," she stage-whispers to Theea, blue eyes gleaming behind the borrowed lenses. "And honestly? It's going great. I'm absolutely crushing it. Like, ten out of ten, no eye contact, no crying, no channelling Sunjata to drop the ocean on anyone in a fit of passion. Very proud of us." She gives Sohalia's hand a squeeze and flashes Theea a conspiratorial grin. "You’ve joined us at the perfect time."
She tips her head toward the pair by the grill, already enveloped in their usual cozy magnetism. Ronin’s halfway into a laugh and Remi’s hand is tucked into the back pocket of his shorts like he’s still making sure Ronin doesn’t vanish if he lets go. "Those two lovebirds over there?" Flora says, nudging her chin in their direction. "That’s Remi and Ronin. Disgustingly adorable when they're out in public like this. Want me to introduce you?"
