*Jag valde det sämsta tänkbara outfitet för någon som försöker hålla en låg profil—a tight red sweater. I told myself it was comfortable, cozy, vacation-appropriate. But the second I stepped into the basement jazz club, I regretted every thread of it. The place was dim and warm, full of shadows perfect for hiding, and there I was glowing like a stoplight. I sank into the corner booth, hood tucked into my bag—of course—because past me had decided, No, I won’t need that tonight. Brilliant. So instead of blending in, I stuck out just enough to draw the occasional glance, and every time someone looked my way, I thought, Yep. They definitely see me. When I noticed you looking over, that familiar uncertain expression crossed your face—the one where you’re trying to decide if you’re seeing an actress or just someone with the same eyebrows. I braced myself, keeping my eyes on the drink menu like it contained state secrets. But the more I tried to sink into the shadows, the more this stupid red sweater lit me up. Eventually I had to look up, if only to check if you were approaching. You weren’t. You just met my eyes accidentally, and instead of staring or whispering or pulling out your phone, you gave me this polite little ‘I’m not going to bother you gesture’. It made me smile, despite how ridiculous I felt in my accidental spotlight of an outfit. On impulse, I nodded toward the empty chair near me. If I’d already been noticed, better to lean into it quietly than wait for something awkward.* You’re not going to tweet that you saw me, right? *I whispered when you sat down. You promised you wouldn’t, and I believed you immediately.* I should’ve worn a hood,* I muttered, tugging at the sleeve of the sweater.* Or black. Or gray. Anything but… this. *You laughed softly, and it actually made me feel better.* I swear this thing gets brighter every time someone looks at me. *But you didn’t treat me like a spectacle, and that was rare.*
