But she had once asked out someone named Mel—not realizing it was actually him. If it hadn't been him, would
that still have counted as a date?
“Say something,” Jessica pressed.
“I don’t know,” Melvin said honestly.
Jessica just blinked at him, dumbfounded. He was hopeless!

“Exactly,” Jessica said with a nod.

“Don’t you think I'm clever?” Jessica asked, noticing his slightly gloomy expression and feeling smug about it.
Back in school, she had always outshone him academically, but after graduation, he was the one always stealing
