Liam glanced cautiously out the window, then leaned in, his face flushing as he whispered, his voice barely a breath,
"Um, Elara, do you know what kind of guys Clara likes?"

I patted his shoulder sympathetically. "Buddy," I said earnestly, "there are plenty of other fish in the sea."
Seeing the tragic look on my face, Liam assumed he had no chance, and the light in his eyes dimmed.
