“You silly girl, I swore I’d never let you lose,” Aiden said, putting on that melodramatic, bittersweet look you only see in coming–of–age stories, as he reached out to stroke Sophia’s hair.

I cleared my throat.

The two lovebirds across from me immediately straightened up.

“Victoria, Sophia and I are planning to save up for two years and then buy a house in Braylin,” Aiden said, looking serious.

“Real estate in Braylin is crazy expensive. Do you guys have a budget in mind?” I asked.

Aiden scratched the back of his head, clearly not having done any real budgeting. He let out a nervous laugh. “We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. If we have to, we’ll just get a loan. We’re young, Sophia and I—we’ll make it work.”

Sophia immediately frowned. “Loans are such a hassle. I don’t want to take one.”

Aiden quickly tried to soothe her. “Okay, babe, no loans. I’ll just work harder and try to get an even bigger bonus next year.”

Sophia finally smiled again, then gave me a shrewd glance.

Come on,

we’re both women–I know exactly what that look means.


She’s obviously hoping I’ll lend her some cash, or maybe get my folks to help out with the down payment.

If she’s truly serious about building a life with Aiden, and I actually had the money, I’d totally support them. But if Sophia’s just scheming for my cash, then I’d have no problem smiling and breaking up the lovebirds myself. I don’t expect my brother to marry into money, but I’ll be damned if he brings home a queen who turns our whole family into her personal staff.

“Victoria, we’re getting our break in two days, but Sophia doesn’t get time off- she’s on shift duty. When are you heading home? Are you going to Hachester or back to Mom and Dad’s?” Aiden asked.
