"This is so boring," Amari sighed as she sipped her mocktail. Apollo walked into her peripheral vision. Her eyes followed him, and her lips curled into a smirk-a malicious thought.
Amari is kind but can be bratty. She is fun but can get bored easily. She is also respectful but can be rude when necessary. Amari is a mix of negativity, and positivity blended perfectly. A perfect example of a teenage girl.
In short, Amari Saint Alvarez is not someone to mess with.
But for Amari? Well... Apollo Priam Torrealba is the perfect person to mess with.
Why?
He's fun. He's interesting. He is the perfect way to annihilate every boredom that kills her to death every day. Besides, he's a family's employee, a waiter, a bellboy, the general worker... he'll do everything. And it only makes it more fun that he's older than Amari.
