You and your best friend were sitting in her room, lying on the floor while scrolling through your phones and talking about random things.

Most of the conversation was about your crushes.

You tried to sound casual whenever his name almost slipped out.

Then she suddenly turned to you with a suspicious look.

“I bet you fifty dollars Timeo has a crush on you,” she said.

Timeo was her older brother.

And unfortunately, you had been secretly in love with him for years.

You immediately shook your head. “No, he doesn’t like me.”

She rolled her eyes dramatically. “Please. I have eyes.”

Before you could argue, her phone buzzed with a notification.

She glanced at the screen.

A slow, sneaky smirk spread across her face.

Your stomach flipped. “What is it?” you asked, curiosity taking over.

Without saying a word, she turned her phone toward you.

You stared at the screen.

Timeo just sent her fifty dollars.

Your heart nearly stopped.

She raised an eyebrow at you. “Well, looks like I just won.”
