Now, four high school students will have a one-month crash-course on what it means to love and being loved."I know I'm a horrible person for asking you this, and I don't care if you hate me, but I spent the whole night making chocolate for Ken, and I know he won't accept it, unless..." her voice trailed off, so I completed it for her.
"Unless the girl he likes is dating his best friend."
"Yes," she replied, almost inaudibly.
My chest tightened. As much as I didn't want to see her sad, I couldn't accept it. Clearly she hadn't thought this hare-brained scheme through, or she would realize how absurd it was. "Let me see if I understood it. You want me to leave this room, ask my childhood friend out on false pretenses, then go to my best friend and tell him I betrayed him, just so you can give him a box of chocolate."
I knew I was right to be indignant, but I still felt remorse when her eyes filled with tears. "You make it sound awful."
