Unspoken Temptation

Ethan Thompson, a bright and ambitious engineering student, had always focused on his studies. Beneath his driven exterior, however, he harbored a secret crush on Olivia Lee, his mother's friend's daughter. This feeling had been simmering since he was six years old, becoming clearer in his final year of primary school at the age of twelve.

Ethan's heart skipped a beat whenever Olivia was near. He admired her kindness, intelligence, and beauty. But he never could muster the courage to express his feelings, fearing rejection and the potential to jeopardize their family friendship. As graduation approached, he found himself lost in thought, wondering what might have been if he confessed his love.
