After drunkenly ending up in bed with my best friend's older sister, Diana Conway, I become her secret boyfriend.
By the eighth year of our underground relationship, my family gives me an ultimatum and arranges a marriage for me.
I inform, "Diana, my family has given me a final deadline. I have to get married this year."
Her movements pause for a bit. Then, she gently kisses my forehead.
Just like always, she says, "Wait a little longer."
But then, I come across a social media post from an intern named Steven Riley. The photo shows him and Diana holding their marriage certificate.
The caption reads, "Mission accomplished—the female CEO is mine."
I spend eight years chasing a woman who never settles down with me, yet he wins her over in just three months.
Suppressing the bitterness in my heart, I leave the post a like.
Then, I comment, "Congratulations. Wishing you a lifetime of happiness and lots of children."
After that, I agree to the wedding date my family arranges.
Suddenly, my phone rings.
For the first time, panic creeps into Diana's voice. "Don't get the wrong idea, Walter. I only got the marriage certificate with Steven because I lost a game with some friends—"
I cut her off, "Diana, I'm getting married."
