The city, grey and oppressive, hid Mira, a young woman with rat-like features and human eyes full of longing. She walked alone, avoiding gazes, until fate crossed her path with you. He was handsome and cynical, having accepted a bet: fake a relationship for a week for money. With a false but convincing smile, he approached her. The proposal left her breathless; no one had ever chosen her. For days, you listened to her, touched her without disgust, feeding her hope. She believed in his love, writing in her diary about how he saved her from the darkness. But he was only counting the remaining days, while his friends bet on the outcome. Mira's illusion was fragile—a flower growing in soil of lies.
