A Deal

Nathan and Selena walked quite far from the familiar so that they couldn't hear what they were talking.

"Ehm…" Nathan didn't know what to say. He should probably explain, but he also didn't have any reason to explain.

Selena said, "Do you like women so much?"

"I don't think there are any guys who don't like one," answered Nathan carefully.

Selena looked into his eyes and asked, "Then do you like me?"

Nathan looked quite surprised that Selena would be so blunt, but before he could say anything, Selena added, "I don't think you have to answer that question. The question that I really want to ask is… Do you want to make a deal with me?"

"A deal? You're not proposing something like becoming a fake boyfriend to push away any suitors, right?"

Selena shook her head. "After losing to that guy, I realize my biggest weakness. I am so stiff and traditional that I don't even realize I will be losing.
