Maybe it's Maybelline. In the dark room, I took a deep breath to gather my spirits and tried to focus intensely. I put down the snack bag and pushed my glasses up my nose. I was in the middle of a super intense combat. On a forum with the topic, are aliens real or not? That's just imagination. There's no evidence proving their existence. Almost immediately, a guy jumped in to counter me.
Just because we haven't found evidence doesn't mean they don't exist. The universe is vast and humanity hasn't explored it all. Open your mind, Sophia.
He replied using my profile name. His arguments made my blood boil and his profile picture looking all smug. But I couldn't deny he was quite handsome. As I was about to continue typing furiously, a strange shadow appeared on my window, followed by my mom's terrified scream. Sophia, help me! I panicked and opened the window to see my mom clinging to a tree while a grotesque green creature tried to pull her away. But mom, could you not? Mom burst out laughing as she took off her alien costume. Cute, right? The neighbor kid gave it to me. Oh, it's almost time for us to go. Don't forget our dinner appointment with your dad's boss's family. Get dressed, sweetie. I sighed in resignation and shut down my computer.
That guy, he got lucky today. Hi, I'm Sophia, and I'm always a realist. When I was five, I discovered Santa Claus wasn't real. I peeked from behind the couch on Christmas Eve and saw Santa taking off his costume. It was just our neighbor, Mr. Thompson. Then the tooth fairy legend was shattered when I caught my mom slipping a dollar under my pillow. That's why that guy drove me crazy arguing about something I don't believe in. I was on my way to a family dinner at a fancy restaurant in the city. I told my parents about the debate earlier. My girl is always right. That guy is so arrogant. When we arrived at the restaurant, they were already waiting for us. Oh, it turned out their family had a son around my age, which explained why my mom insisted I dress up nicely.
But as we got closer and sat down, I was horrified to recognize that familiar face. I stuttered and pointed at him. He's the guy I debated with on the forum. What a coincidence. Maybe he's right then since he's so smart. What? Mom immediately switched sides to defend him, making me furious. Well, he didn't seem to recognize me as the person he had argued with online just hours before. His name was Jason, a rich kid. No wonder he always looked so smug. He really is a genius. I rolled my eyes so hard, I thought they'd get stuck. Seriously, could they be any more obvious?
Maybe you should spend more time with him, Sophia. Sophia?
I nearly choked on my steak. Jason had to perform the Heimlich maneuver to save me. Thanks.
No problem. But are you by any chance?
Oh, you two would be so cute as a couple. I retreated to my seat and stayed quiet while Jason seemed excited.
Sophia is an interesting girl. I really like her.
No way. I would never.
How did I discover Jason was the same guy from the forum at the family dinner?
Before I could finish, my mom covered my mouth. She's just a bit shy. It's an honor. Mom shot me a look before letting me go. I knew why they were doing this. They wanted to impress their boss. We said our goodbyes as they climbed into a fancy car. Just one dinner.

Maybe it's Maybelline. And I suddenly had a boyfriend named Jason? The next morning, I stormed into my quirky best friend Maeve's house.
