At the party, the age-old game of Truth or Dare remains unchanged.
The bottle spins a few rounds, finally pointing towards the most inconspicuous spot on the sofa.
No one told me that tonight's main character was Ethan.
Nor did anyone mention that the bodyguard who had guarded me for two years had suddenly turned into a scion of a noble family.
Tonight's gathering has me on pins and needles.
After all, I had not been easy on Ethan back in the day.
Even my friends said, "If Ethan ever makes it big, you'll be the first one to bite the dust." At that moment, the person seated on the sofa calmly responded with one word: "Truth."
It was a fairly standard question.
But the one asking was trembling even as he spoke.
"Mr. Green, what's the most heart-racing sweet nothing you've ever heard?"
The room quieted down, all eyes on Ethan.
I was wearing a navy blue miniskirt, and Mr. Smith, reeking of alcohol, stealthily rested his hand on my right leg.
I clenched my teeth.
Just then, a deep voice caught my ear.
He mimicked the tone I had used years ago and said:
"Tears are a man's nylons, Ethan, cry for me."
Seconds later, the room erupted with gossip-fueled gasps.
I was utterly stunned.
This... is hard to judge.
After all, when I straddled Ethan and said that line back then, he remained composed. His voice only dropped a notch as he warned me, "Are you not afraid that one day I'll bring you to the pinnacle and make you scream for mercy??"
Shamelessly, I retorted:
"How would you do it?"
"In the bedroom or on the sofa?"
