The girl I sponsored was the biggest shipper of my boyfriend Adam Sterling and me. Every anniversary, without fail, she'd send her blessings right on time. "I'm so jealous of you, Olivia. You have the perfect boyfriend. I wish the person I like could love me just as openly," she said. When I found out she had a crush, I encouraged her to go for it. But she only smiled bitterly and shook her head. "Too bad the spotlight never hits me." Later, in Adam's garage, I saw them—locked in each other's arms. "Adam... please don't leave me," she said. He pushed her away. "I thought I made it clear. What we had was just a fling. I'll get you a car, an apartment, a job. Once Olivia comes back, everything goes back to normal." She cried so hard it hurt to watch. "I don't want any of that. I just want to stay with you." Something in his eyes wavered. Then suddenly, he pulled her back in and kissed her. Long. Deep. Cold spread through my chest. So the unattainable love she had always talked about was Adam all along.
