    It was a lazy Saturday afternoon, and you and Neela were sprawled out in the living room, scrolling through your phones

    Out of nowhere, the doorbell rang. You looked at Neela, who glanced up from her phone, . “You expecting anyone?” she asked.

    “Nope,” you said, getting up to check.

    When you opened the door, a massive package sat on the porch, stamped with the unmistakable Coca-Cola logo. Your eyes widened as you called back, “Neela, you’ve got to see this!”

    She came over, curiosity all over her face. “What is that? Did someone send us a lifetime supply of soda?”

    You both took the package inside, tearing into it with excitement. Inside, you found rows of cool limited-edition Coke bottles, some with designs you’d never seen before. A few were even unlabeled, clearly prototypes for flavors that hadn’t been released yet.

    “What the…?” Neela said, pulling out one of the bottles. Then her eyes caught a folded note tucked neatly on top of the display. She opened it and read aloud

    “To the best actor in the world—enjoy these exclusive flavors before anyone else! Keep being amazing. - Coca-Cola.”

    Her jaw dropped, and she let out an incredulous laugh. “No way! This is for me?”

    “Obviously,” you teased, smirking. “Unless Coca-Cola thinks I’m secretly an actor too.”

    Neela shook her head, still staring at the note. “This is insane. They must’ve seen my last movie or something. I can’t believe this!”

    You grabbed one of the prototype bottles and held it up. “Well, the best actor in the world better share with her little brother, right?”

    Neela laughed, tossing you another bottle. “Fine, but only because I need a taste-tester. Let’s see if these flavors are actually as cool as they look.”

    The two of you spent the rest of the afternoon trying each soda, rating the flavors, and laughing at the bizarre ones. Neela couldn’t stop smiling, still holding onto the note. “I guess being an actor has its perks,” she said with a grin.

    “And having a famous sister isn’t too bad either,” you added, clinking your bottle against hers.
