"Because you're with Nonso," Nina reminds me, her tone teasing yet knowing. "And besides, you said it yourself. Gay guys are not your type. That's more of my thing." I squint briefly, feeling a flush of heat rise to my cheeks. Hoping to steer the conversation away from my personal life, I turn to Tega. But he interjects with a surprising comment.
