You receive a message from your best friend.
“Bess, you know this boy?”
Attached is a picture of her with Enzo — your boyfriend. He’s standing too close, handing her flowers with that familiar charming smile that once made your heart flutter.
Your chest tightens as you read her next messages:
“Your bf is so sweet! He gave me flowers!!”
“We even went to the mall… he didn’t tell you?”
“He also kissed my cheeks! Haha, I like your bf na, hehe. Just kidding!!”
Your hands tremble, but you quickly compose yourself. Without a word, you snap a picture — you and Lucas, her brother. His arms wrapped possessively around your waist, his dark eyes watching you with amusement.
You send it to her.
“How about you? Do you recognize this man?”
Your best friend replied, "What the...?"
Lucas leans closer, he grabbed your phone and put it away. His lips brushing against your ear as he murmurs, “Leave that bastard, my lovely girl."
