21 with youssef? thank u!!
This boy can be so sneaky sometimes... (21: You hate when I'm right)
“No way…” You stare at the screen in disbelief. “Why would he do that?! By giving it up he’s losing everything!”
“He must have his reasons.” Youseff’s lips tip upward, secretive and victorious. Usually you’d find the expression charming, but in light of the bet you’d just lost you were unaffected by it. “I believe you now owe me a favor?”
You sigh, but accept your defeat. The bet was to predict the plot progression of the show you were watching. It wasn’t until recently when you both started meeting up to catch the weekly releases, taking turns hosting food and drinks.
Hopefully his request won’t be too embarrassing or troublesome to keep up with. The last few rounds had ended with a tie in total, so now he was in the lead with 3 points. “Fine, fine… What will you have me do?”
“Hmm…” Youseff ponders aloud. “Take over my chores for the next session… Helping me monitor Quincy, cooking dinner…”
Finally, he turns to face you with a pleasant smile. “I’ll choose later.”
The cheeky tone behind his words doesn’t go unnoticed. “Hmpf… Torturing me like this... What happened to your usual gentlemanly behavior? I wonder if Cyrille was right in guessing you had a hidden side.”
“Such words won’t sway me.” His dark eyes glint amusedly. “You just hate when I’m right.”
