He Sold My Gifts Online—Now He's Begging for Me Back

Fresh off the high of my year-end bonus, I splurged on a pair of limited-edition Air Jordans for my boyfriend, Aiden Dickerson, who was grinding through his graduate degree.

I never expected him to list them on Mercari the very next day—twenty percent of market price, seal still intact.

I bought them back with a burner account. Once delivery confirmed, I called him.

"Darling, did you like my little surprise? Satisfied?"

Aiden sounded lost. "What surprise?"

I let my voice wobble with fake hurt.
