ODDS

With her parents' constant attempts to bring the house down on each other, seventeen year old Anaira decides to secure her future on her own and starts collecting money for her dream college by writing and editing tinder profiles for her needy attention seeking classmates. And since she is the best (and the only one) in the business, none of the spoilt rich brats around her mind spilling a hundred dollars for a guaranteed date. Or a casual hook up. But when pretty and popular Melanie Laurel demands her services to be set up with Liam Smith, the only guy Anaira has ever had a crush on, things get complicated. There was no way that Anaira would loose Liam to Melanie, but there was some huge money Melanie was ready to give....

Will Anaira let a bit of her present slip away for a future no one knows about yet? Or will she finally confront the feelings that have been rolling in her heart since forever? And if she does, what confirms that Liam may feel the same way about her?

Guess you'll have to read to find out.

"What the hell Anaira! Why would you do this to me?"

I maintained my silence, biting my lower lip uncontrollably.

"I asked why?!" He shouted, I couldn't make out from his wavering voice if he was angry or just hurt or angrily hurt, but there was nothing left in me that would make me look him in the eye.

"Please, tell me." Liam begged gently, I saw his right hand go up to push back his hair.

I nervously lifted my head and stared right into his blue eyes, my nails drilling into the table that had been saving me from falling onto the floor.

"What were the odds? That a guy like you would want to be with a girl like me?"I whispered softly, so that my head wouldn't comprehend what just escaped my lips, but loud enough for Liam to hear me.
