#52 “Do You Like Him?”

In the evening, Sophia and Evelyn burst into fits of laughter during the movie marathon they had meticulously organized. Sophia couldn’t help but realize that she hadn’t enjoyed herself this much in a long time.

They had expertly mixed up some delightful Sex on the Beach cocktails and decided to engage in a game of truth or dare. After all, the entire evening was meant to be a nostalgic trip down memory lane, reminiscent of their teenage years.

As they lounged on the comfortable sofa, clinking their glasses together, Evelyn turned to Sophia with a sly grin. “What do you choose?” she inquired, taking a delicate sip of her fruity cocktail. Sophia contemplated for a moment before replying, “True.”

Evelyn’s eyes gleamed mischievously as she leaned in closer, raising her eyebrows playfully. “What’s going on between you and Alexander?” she asked, the curiosity evident in her expression. Sophia, feeling a sudden wave of hesitation, furrowed her brow and changed her choice. “Dare.”

Evelyn’s grin widened. “I dare you to answer my question.”

Sophia couldn’t help but emit a theatrical growl of annoyance, flopping dramatically onto the soft cushions strewn across the floor. “It was supposed to be an evening without work and men,” she lamented.

“Come on, I’m your best friend,” she cajoled. “I should know. Do you like him?”

Sophia sighed dramatically, playing up the suspense. “Well, let’s just say he’s a complicated book, and I’m not sure if I want to keep reading it.”

Evelyn burst into laughter. “That’s the most diplomatic answer I’ve ever heard. Sophia winked. “Gotta keep you on your toes, Evie. Now, it’s your turn. Truth or dare?”
