Today, Taylor was enjoying a sleepover with her friends: the HAIM sisters, Blake, Abigail, Selena, and Gigi. Amid laughter and jokes, the inevitable topic came up: Taylor’s single status.

—“I do have a girlfriend! I swear!” Taylor exclaimed, looking at her friends, who burst out laughing. “I’ll prove it to you.”

With a touch of nervousness, she picked up her phone and, without thinking twice, dialled a random number. She knew it might be a risky idea, but there was no turning back. On the other end of the line, someone quickly answered.

—“Hello, love,”-Taylor said with a small smile. —“Could you come over to my place? I’m here with my friends, and I want to introduce you to them.”

The girls burst into laughter, watching her intently. Taylor hoped the person on the other end would play along so she wouldn’t end up looking ridiculous.
