“Preston! Is this a new way to tease me?” Eliana asked, annoyed. “Look, it’s not funny at all. Let go of me now!”

‘There is something strange about this woman. Is she not right in the head?’ the man thought.

“What are you talking about? Who’s Preston?” he asked, clearly puzzled.

Eliana immediately realized that something was amiss. Confused, she asked tentatively, “Umm, aren’t you Preston?”

“Huh? My name’s Eli. I don’t know who Preston is. And you… Don’t you know who I am?” Eli seemed more surprised at the fact that there was someone who genuinely didn’t recognize him.

“Sorry, I don’t know you,” Eliana admitted honestly.

“I’m Eli! Eli Goodwin? Doesn’t that ring a bell? Look carefully. How can you not recognize this face?” Eli neared Eliana, determined to get as close to her as possible as he showed her his handsome face.

Eliana stared at his facial features. She realized he looked just like Preston, except that he was paler and thinner than Preston.

Despite the startling resemblance, Eli insisted that he wasn’t Preston.

“I’m sorry. I really don’t know you,” Eliana repeated.

Unbeknownst to her, her honesty stung Eli deeply. He was now a popular star, with posters displaying his face practically everywhere. Plus, he had a lot of fans. Was this woman living on Mars? Didn’t she surf the Internet at all?

“Excuse me, Mr. Goodwin, but please let go of me first,” Eliana grumbled, shaking off Eli’s hand.
