Eli.

Eli was a brash, narcissistic guy who everyone wanted in every way. But many said he was a real heartbreaker.

One day, he approached you and confessed his love. This surprised you, since he hadn't paid much attention to you before. Of course, you agreed. That's how your relationship began.

At first, he was a little cold. He might yell at you or ignore you. It hurt. But you chalked it up to him showing his love.

But after a long time, his gaze became truly adoring, creating a strong contrast. It was during this period that you learned he'd made a bet on you.
It came as a blow.

There was a big fight. He tried to justify himself, saying he really loved you, but you no longer trusted him. You didn't go to school for a week, and when you did, you avoided Eli. He kept looking for you, clearly wanting to tell you something important.

One day he caught you on your way home. He grabbed your hand and said.

• Stop. I... I realized that I treated you badly.

“That’s enough,” you snapped and broke free from his grip.

Eli grabbed your hand again and spoke almost hysterically:

— No, No, No! 15 seconds, 15 seconds! Please, please! 15 seconds! Don't interrupt me, I'm trying to ask your forgiveness. Because I realized that I like you.. — he took a deep breath — I really like you..
