We Compete

"I just remembered someone saying that I was one lucky girl," said Raelle with a thoughtful look on her face. "I have come to understand that I am indeed too lucky in life. Whoever comes into my life likes to spoil me. No one tried to restrain or temper my personality. You all seem to have way too much confidence in me to let me run wild like this. What if I walked the wrong path?"

"Everything about you is too straight!" was Shui Xian's answer as he smiled teasingly at her. "Just like your sexuality."

"Who said I'm straight?" asked Raelle making Shui Xian choke. Raelle smiled at him and patted his back soothingly as she added, "I think my sexual orientation is Xian! I seemed to have been a very principled person before you entered my life. Sometimes I wonder what kind of magic it was that the moment we first met at that banquet, I was willing to not only get close to you but also wanted to take a bite of those lips."
