“We met at your wedding with Jeffrey five years ago,” Riley said, standing at the doorway with that sly, charming look. “You’ve forgotten?”

‘Did we really?‘ Rebecca racked her brain and thought, ‘Nope, nothing comes to mind.

“I tried flirting with you, and Jeffrey shot me a death glare,” Riley added, hoping to jog Rebecca’s memory.

Rebecca paused, raising an eyebrow questioningly. She thought, ‘Flirting at my wedding?‘

Riley pulled out her phone and showed Rebecca a photo from a couple of years back. “Recognize this?”

Rebecca stared at the screen. There was a girl with shoulder–length, choppy hair, headphones around her neck. Her grin was full of youthful energy and a hint of mischief.

That photo flipped a switch in Rebecca’s mind. She stared at Riley, eyes wide. “Wait… You’re Riley?”

“Don’t I look even cooler now?” Riley ran her hand through her hair, her whole vibe radiating pure flirt power.

“You look great either way,” Rebecca said, stepping aside to let Riley in. “Come on in.”

Rebecca hadn’t run into Riley much aside from seeing her at the wedding. Riley’s whole vibe was a world apart from what it was at that moment. That was why Rebecca hadn’t recognized her at first.

Riley used to be just a cool girl, but at that moment, she looked so androgynous and smooth, and people couldn’t even tell if she was a guy or a girl.

Riley glanced around. She couldn’t help but tease, “Seriously? Jeffrey let you and Samuel end up living in a place this tiny?”

“I picked it myself,” Rebecca replied.

Riley was puzzled. She didn’t know all the messy details behind Jeffrey and Rebecca’s divorce, just that Jeffrey’s scandal with Andrea blew up. Before she knew it, they were signing the papers.

“Coffee?” Rebecca offered. Honestly, she didn’t know much about Riley, except that Riley and Jeffrey were pretty close.
