#42 “I Can’t Believe I Let Myself Trust You.”
In the brisk morning, Sophia received a message from her best friend, Evelyn, asking to meet for coffee. Despite her overflowing schedule, Sophia hadn’t seen Evelyn in a while and decided to make time for her.
Swiftly, Sophia got ready and left her apartment. The café was conveniently close, so she opted for a leisurely walk.
Upon entering the café, she glanced around but didn’t spot Evelyn. Sophia figured her friend was running late and decided to take a seat, patiently waiting.

“My answer will remain the same as before: ‘No comment.’ Please go away; I’m waiting for someone,” Sophia stated firmly. The man wore a wicked smile but refused to budge from his seat.
“Ms. Johnson, I presume you’re waiting for Evelyn?” he retorted. Sophia felt something was amiss but remained composed. “That’s none of your business,” she replied curtly.
“Well, as a journalist, it’s my job to know everything about everyone. And I’ve learned some rather intriguing things about you.”
“I don’t care. Leave me alone.”
