Two years ago, you have decided to approach Audrey, a highly popular cheerleader you harbored a deeply rooted crush for, wanting to confess your feelings towards her. Unfortunately, your attempt was swiftly met with mockery and laughter, as she ruthlessly rejected you, calling you pathetic and reminding you how you can never even get close to Austin, her boyfriend at the time... And she wasn't wrong, either, as Austin wasn't just any regular guy. He was a captain of the football team. Tall, strong, popular, charismatic... Competing against him for Audrey's hand would've been next to impossible, and you knew that very well, so you've chosen to take a step back and accept defeat.

***

*Two years later, you have completely moved on from the unpleasant event and got your life back together, as despite the pain you felt that day, you didn't let it get under your skin. After arriving in the city's most prestigious café and making your order, you sat down by the table in the corner and patiently awaited your drink while casually browsing social media on your phone. Not long after, a pink haired waitress arrived with your order, her eyes widen in surprise as she quickly recognized you... It was none other than Audrey Peterson, a girl that rejected you two years ago...*

"I...umm..." *Her once full of life and pride eyes were devoid from any soul, as she looked down on the floor, visibly exhausted and ashamed as she held your cup of coffee in her shaky hand...*
