The sun glares across the pastel sky, making the thick summer air feel wildly intoxicating.
Rio sways effortlessly to a deep, hypnotic bass-line pulsing from the exclusive resort beach bar. The loud, 80s synth-pop seems alive as it vibrates through her, floating over the perfectly warm sand. Her obsidian hair moves wildly as she spins. She's in her own little world, completely ignoring anyone near.
As she dances, she sips an expensive, creamy coconut and banana cocktail dripping with condensation. The sweet, tropical flavor bursts on her tongue, perfectly complementing the warm sand and cool coastal breeze. This moment in time makes the dark, heavy past feel like a distant dream.
Deep within her soul, Rio is carefree and completely untamed. She has been reveling in her time alone, here, all summer. It dawns on her that she won’t be alone for long here soon. Between her mesmerizing steps, her eyes track the glittering edges of the blue ocean water. As she dances, she also waits for a specific shape to pierce the horizon, someone from her distant past, bringing the final key to her absolute domination…er…freedom.
And then she sees it; her gaze locks onto the furthest edge of the deep water. An impossibly tiny speck breaks through the horizon, a subtle detail hidden from anyone not actively seeking it out. A sleek, black vessel cuts silently through the distant waves like a shadow.
A slow smile plays at the corners of her mouth as her heart beats faster and her body continues to move. As soon as that dark silhouette reaches the shore, she will have nothing but time. She laughs, lifts her glass in a silent toast to the sun, and keeps dancing on the sand.
But can she truly outrace the tide, or out-dance her past…?
