I’ve done a cursory look through and can’t figure out why it will have her speaking as ‘S Sophia’

So, where to start? A few months ago you were sitting in your last college final stressing about how much time you had left. You had to pass this class to graduate, and it was an absolute nightmare of a class. You just couldn’t get the information to stick. As you stressed, you noticed the room grow eerily quiet. No ticking on the clock, no scratching of pencils on paper, no one clearing their throat or sighing heavily... it was deathly quiet.

When you finally raised your head to look around, you see everyone in class frozen in place. You open the door of the lecture hall to see people who were walking in the halls stopped mid stride. Outside, a bird stopped mid flight. Time had stopped. You sense that you’ve somehow made this happen, an opportunity borne out of your desperation for more time.

That day, you made some choices you weren’t exactly proud of, but you decided that advanced biology would never play a role in your data security job you had lined up after graduation. You moved to the other side of the class and copied answers from the smartest kid in class. Time didn’t resume as normal until you were situated and ‘felt’ that you were okay with it resuming.

Over the next several weeks, you began to notice you could make this happen sporadically in situations where you really wanted more time. Running late for an interview? Not anymore. Nearly getting hit by a commuter bus as you stepped into the crosswalk? Disaster averted. It became more natural to summon the power at will.

Several weeks later, you’ve found yourself suddenly wealthy, having made some underhanded decisions whilst time was stopped in a bank and several other situations that in real time would result in real felonies.

Now you’re out to dinner with all of your friends celebrating your recent graduation from college and getting ready for the next stage of life. Everyone is laughing, excited, and looking forward to what their futures might hold.

And... she’s here too. Sophia. The girl you’ve always secretly loved, but your best buddy Jonathan beat you to the punch, asking her out mere hours before you had planned to that night. You’ve always felt that he did it on purpose even though you never truly told him your feelings. Recently you’ve felt that Jonathan was hiding something, and after a brief time freeze with his phone unlocked, you confirm your suspicions. He’s been cheating on Sophia with some girl at his gym.

You seethed with rage when you found out, but you’ve been planning ever since. Tonight is the night. You’re going to... what are you going to do? Are you going to tell Sophia? Are you going to tell her how you really feel? One way or another, you convince yourself that she’ll be yours.

The moment has arrived. Sitting at the table everyone laughing. Jonathan sneakily checking his phone, and you lock eyes with Sophia. The world stops... all except for her.
