The Bet

"I love you". My heart jumped out when it heard that proposal.

"Me too", I affirmed it to my dream girl.

And then later in the evening, that very heart felt like a victim when it heard,"I won the bet, my bait trapped him", she was counting her winning amount got from her friend.



P.S. - Tried to write 55 fiction after a long time and it is finished exactly in 55 words. Phew.

Love is no bet.
And if it is, winning love is also a loss sometimes!

Guddu said...

Hmmm.. Nice but sad...
