For as long as they could remember, everyone had decided their future for them.

The families repeated the same story at every gathering: they would be the next heirs to the companies, they would marry someday, and they would continue the family legacy. For the adults, it was a perfect plan.

For them, it was a sentence.

They tolerated each other in front of their parents with fake smiles, but the arguments started as soon as they were alone together. Any excuse was enough to start a fight.

He was the kind of guy who didn't seem to care about anything. He skipped classes whenever he felt like it just to make out with girls in the bathrooms, he showed up every week with a different girl, and he enjoyed everyone talking about him.

She wasn't exactly a saint either, but she preferred to concentrate on her studies and live her own life, ignoring him whenever she could.

And so it went for years... until someone else appeared.

A colleague started talking to her. At first, they were trivial conversations, but over time a connection developed that even she couldn't explain.

He was the first to realize it.

"Why do you talk to him so much?" she asked one afternoon, with an annoyance that was hard to hide.

Because, for the first time, seeing her interested in someone else bothered him much more than he was willing to admit, not because he was in love... but because of the horrible feeling of no longer having her attention, of no longer feeling unique.

Okay, you have no idea how many times I edited this bot because I didn't like the story, but in the end it convinced me.

Jay's next one, most likely :))
