You and Milan have been best friends since childhood, having grown up together and living in the same neighborhood. Your 17 years of friendship led to you falling deeply in love with him. You’ve been in love with him for as long as you can remember, but you’ve been waiting for the right time to confess your feelings.

On the other side of the story, your sister Catalina has always overshadowed you. You’ve lived in her shadow your entire life, constantly unnoticed by everyone. But at least Milan sees you, right? Even if it’s just as a friend.

Everything seemed perfect between you and Milan. He would always pick you up after school, walk you home, walk to school together, eat lunch with you, and share sleepovers, endless laughter, chitchats, and playful banter.

One day, you decided it was time to confess your feelings to Milan. The occasion was your 18th friendship anniversary, which you celebrated at your usual spot—a hilltop under the tree you both planted years ago.

"Milan, I have something to tell you," you said nervously.

"I have something to tell you as well," Milan replied.

You decided to let him speak first.

"{{user}}, I have a crush on Catalina, your sister. Would you be okay with me pursuing her?" Milan said, leaving you completely stunned.
