Inside she's stuck afraid to put herself and her ideas out there especially the board game design she's kept a secret. She keeps things light and temporary-both at work as a substitute teacher and in her relationships.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(30 25 21 1)>Overworked </span><strong style=color: rgba(30 25 21 1)>Sebastian</strong><span style=color: rgba(30 25 21 1)> abhors anything that gets in the way of his goals including procuring the perfect pastry.

If Sebastian wins the board game battle he gets to keep his precious croissant if she wins he has to join their game night next week.</span></p><p><br></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(30 25 21 1)><em>Just who will be the victor in this game of love</em></strong><span style=color: rgba(30 25 21 1)>?</span></p>
