Instant Obsession

By: Nina Sestina

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Rachelle's life is in shambles, working as a bartender, and stuck in a lease she can't afford to break with her cheating, abusive boyfriend. She sees no way out, until her friend Laura makes her a profile on a dating app.

Laura enjoys playing as Rachelle, and quickly hooks an attractive older man named Victor, a successful professor looking for something serious. They banter back and forth, and the conversation veers into lewd territory. He asks when he can meet her, and Laura invites him to the bar before handing her phone to Rachelle.

She doesn't normally go for older men, but can't deny her attraction while checking out his profile. As she reads over their conversation, she's horrified by some of the things Laura said to him. Also, he's going to be there in an hour!
