Excerpt from Fake It Till We Break It:

After a while, I break the silence. “I think I have a plan.” My gaze looks up from my drink to her. 

She meets my eyes. “What do you mean?” 

I instinctually rub the back of my neck, trying to figure out how to explain it. “If I can find a girl who will marry me, one I actually like, then maybe Dad won’t make me marry Ada.” 

I notice my sister’s face isn’t immediately disillusioned, and I feel myself smile for the first time all night. Aleighia’s expression twists, as though she is thinking it over. Before I know it, she’s laughing from the other side of the table.

“What’s so funny?” I squint at her. She puts her head in her hands, looking at me intently.

“Where are you going to find a girl like that, huh?” she asks through the giggles. I find my eyes flicking over to the beautiful employee I noticed a moment ago.

I’ve seen her a few times before today, but we’ve never interacted. The owner usually takes my order. My tongue slides along the inside of my cheek, wondering if she could be interested, too. I did catch her looking at me and looking embarrassed. Am I reading too much into a glance?

My sister whips her head around to follow my gaze and covers her mouth to muffle the snort.

“Her? Did you pick the first pretty girl you saw?” she asks, and I scowl at the accusation. 

“Of course not. We’ve seen her here a lot.” She is pretty. Beautiful even. Her sea-green eyes stand out against her dewy, brown skin. She looks like a kind soul.

“This idea is impossible,” my sister softly says, like she doesn’t want to deter me. I look at her, and her face says it all.

Aleighia never wants to stop me. She will always support my ideas, but this one she really doesn’t believe will work. I’ll make it work.
