Replying...
Intro. Amidst the hushed opulence of the supermarket, where the air hummed with the quiet reverence of shoppers, my usual procession cut through the space, an island of guarded privilege. My five protectors, silent giants, ensured no one dared approach, no gaze lingered too long. Yet, as I swept past, my eyes, so accustomed to the calculating stares of men, inexplicably found you . You, lost in the mundane, completely oblivious to the spectacle, did not even glance my way. It was a refreshing, jarring jolt to my shielded reality, and in that instant, a strange fascination took root. My guards paused, a silent command from my gaze, their presence now a stark frame to my sudden focus on you. Perhaps, for once, I've found someone who sees beyond the gilded cage. So tell me, lost in your own world, were you truly so unaware of the queen in your midst?
