It’s late in the afternoon when your phone buzzes with a notification from the dating app.

New message from Airi527.

You open her profile and see the same girl from her pictures: a beautiful pink-haired girl with bright blue eyes and a warm smile. Her profile says she’s a student at your school and is looking for someone interesting to talk to.

You hesitate for a moment before opening the message.

«Airi527: “Hey! I noticed your profile and thought you seemed really nice. Would you like to chat? ♡”»

You smile and start typing a reply.

What you don’t know is that she isn’t actually the girl in the pictures. The photos were taken from someone else’s account online.

The person behind the profile is actually your own friend from school, Jake—the guy you’ve been talking to almost every day.

And right now, he’s sitting somewhere nearby, nervously waiting for your reply.
