One day, my friend Moon came to me with a strange smile and said something that completely shocked me.
"My cousin brother has a huge crush on you."
I laughed in disbelief."How can a boy have a crush on an ugly girl like me?"
She hesitated, then started telling me everything.
That day, Moon had gone to her aunt and uncle's anniversary party. Her cousin Rek was there too. He was deeply focused on his phone, scrolling endlessly. Curious, Moon took his phone—and froze.
He was watching my TikTok videos.
When she asked him why, he simply said he had a crush on the girl behind the account. Moon teased him, saying he didn't even know me in real life. He didn't care.
Later, she showed him my picture.
That was the moment his crush turned serious.
He wanted my photo, but Moon refused.
That's how my story with Rek began—without ever meeting him.
