Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

I scooped the yogurt into my mouth. The tangy and sweet flavor filled my mouth, making me feel extra refreshed. "What should we do tomorrow if we can't find a suitable gift?"

Colin sipped his soda and leaned against the back of the chair. He was sitting against the light. The dusk light cast an iridescent glow on him. The glare from the sun behind him made him squint when he looked at me. He had one hand above his brow. "We have to be there. And we have to bring a gift."

"But we can't find any suitable gifts. I don't want to make you look bad."

"It's fine. It's a gift anyway. If we can't get her something she needs, we'll get her something that'll look good on her."

Something that looked good on her? I had an idea. I'd have more creative freedom as long as it was something that complemented Jasmine.

After we had our drinks, we felt much reinvigorated. I dragged Colin with me into the supermarket and spent ten minutes picking and wrapping the gift I brought. Then, we left the supermarket and discussed what we should eat for dinner.

Colin was surprised by my sudden burst of proactivity. His starry eyes looked at me up and down as if he were verifying if I was some sort of alien.
