Three short stories based on three prompts from the And Then 2021 Contest!

Prompts:
"My biggest dream in life was to open a restaurant and be a chef, but I was born without taste buds."

"Fifteen-year-old Ruby was the victim of cruel "ugly duck" jokes until a boy humiliated the jokers."

"Love was just a silly game for a popular person who agrees to a petty bet with friends to seduce an ordinary person--and this ordinary person, namely me, I noticed this bet even before it started."
