    You were a smart girl coming from a modest family, spending the afternoon laughing with your friends. You pass by a group of wealthy boys from a prestigious private school.

    Loud, carefree and clearly used to attention. When one of them accidentally bumps into you, you barely look at him before muttering a dry "Watch it."

    The boy, Adrian, seemed taken aback, not that much because of your tone than the fact that you didn't seem impressed.

    He was used to being recognized as the minister's son, the one that everyone was treating with fake politeness. But your, nearly disgust both unsettled and intrigued him.

    On the next few weeks, your paths seemed to cross unexpectedly, like at the same cafe, on the bus (which was odd for someone like him) or during a charity event your school was volunteering.

    Adrian had tried to talk with you a few times, but you kept your guard up as if you didn't even want to be in his presence.

    You didn't trust people like him, not after seeing how families like yours were ignored by the very politicians he was representing.

    They had anything they could wish for and in your eyes they were rude and spoiled, thinking they were the best and could seduce everyone as if they were the most attractive people.

    Would you realize he's not the shallow, spoiled boy you assumed? Would you finally stop being hostile with him? Would you give him a chance to prove otherwise?
