The Bet That Lasted a Lifetime

At Emily’s birthday party, I lost the game. Her male assistant grinned and announced my punishment.

“Find an e-girl to date for a day — and it has to include at least a kiss.”

The whole room burst into laughter.

I ignored them and looked at Emily.

She took a casual sip of her drink. “A bet’s a bet, Roger. Don’t tell me you’re planning to back out?”

I smiled. “Alright. But just one day doesn’t feel like enough. If we’re going to do this, let’s do it for a lifetime.”
