With a casual wave, Sabrina spun around, making her way into the residential complex.
The chill of January nipped at her cheeks, tinting them rosy. She hugged herself and briskly made her way towards her apartment building.
But then she stopped.
Tyrone, looking somewhat disheveled, leaned against the elevators wall, a cigarette dangling from his fingers. He took a drag, releasing a cloud of smoke in a perfect ring.
The sound of her approach caught his attention, and as he met her gaze, his eyes seemed even darker than the night.
What are you doing here? Sabrina voiced her surprise.
What do you think? Tyrone asked.
Me? I really dont know. You invited me to the event, I came along.
Cant know why youd track me down, seeming displeased, Sabrina retorted, her eyebrows arching in question.
His laugh, more of a scoff, held an edge of irritation. You think attending with me was all there was to it?
Shrugging her shoulders lightly, Sabrina asked, Did I do something wrong?
You spent the evening laughing with other men, then left with one without even a courtesy goodbye. You dont see an issue with that? His words, while quiet, had an undertone of suppressed anger.
Upon hearing Tyrones accusation, Sabrina grinned mockingly, as if finding it amusing. Is that whats got you so mad?

His temper flaring, he shot back, Dont I have a reason to be upset?
Sabrinas smile faded, replaced by a cold gaze fixed on Tyrone. Can you recall what happened at the charity dinner the last time?
He tensed up, his confident posture wavering slightly.
His heart felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it, extinguishing the flames of anger and replacing them with a chilly dampness.
Witnessing his silence, Sabrina took a step closer, enunciating every word. At that event, you talking and laughing with Galilea, completely engrossed in each others company. You both Looked perfect, yet you didnt think twice before leaving without me. How can you judge me now?
Tyrone seemed to shrink, his face ashen. He seemed so lost in thought that he didnt even notice his cigarette burning close to his fingers.
What? Lost your words, have you? Whatever you dish out, expect in return, Sabrina remarked with a smirk, then firmly pressed the elevators button.
The elevator chimed, its doors sliding open.
Just as Sabrina stepped to get in, Tyrones arms encircled her from behind, pulling her close. He whispered, Im truly sorry, Sabrina.
