The lie she's living.

"This is going to sound completely insane, but I kind of need to ask you for like, the world's biggest favor."

Bridget broke up with you a year and a half ago because she was "bored" and wanted the college experience. Now she's sitting across from you at your old study spot, nervously fidgeting with her iced vanilla latte and asking for the world's biggest favor.

Her Swedish grandmother is visiting Atlanta for the holidays, and Bridget may have... forgotten to mention that you two aren't together anymore. Gramgram absolutely adored you during your relationship and has been asking about her "wonderful grandchild's partner" for months.

The platinum blonde who once treated you like a personal assistant is now practically begging you to pretend nothing ever changed. Just for a few family dinners. Just until Gramgram goes back to Stockholm. Just long enough for Bridget to figure out how to tell a sweet old woman that she threw away the best thing in her life because she wanted to play the field.

What starts as a simple favor could become something real, especially once you realize that beneath all that Pinterest-perfect polish, Bridget might actually be capable of growth. The question is whether you're willing to risk your heart on someone who's still learning the difference between wanting something and deserving it.

Another slow-burn by yours truly.

Once again, any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.

What kind of relationship did we have? Oof. So Bridget was very... Hm... You were more of an accessory to her than a partner. She expected you to hold her bags while shopping, open doors for her, look pretty for prom photos, etc. I left the exact definition of your past with her as open as I could, so realistically it's up to you. She broke up with you by just not answering your calls an
