"I love you, Winnie. Your sister Lottie is nothing more than a substitute for you. You know what? Whenever I'm sleeping with her, I will imagine that I was with you..."

　　I sat at my desk, trying to complete the task that Alfie assigned me for the day. But lately, I couldn't focus on anything because of Lottie.

　　I stood up abruptly from my chair. "What did you just say?"
