Gabriel Black and I had grown up together as childhood sweethearts, and when we reached adulthood, our families arranged our engagement. From the day the engagement was announced, I started counting down the days. However, Gabriel thought the whole thing was unfair. “Other people get to fall in love a few times in their lives. Why should I be stuck with just you my whole life? You should date a few people, too. Don’t shortchange yourself.” And he meant it. In the year after our engagement, Gabriel went through seven girlfriends. Every time he changed partners, I would simply smile and say it didn’t matter. After all, I thought he would always come back to me. That was until the eighth girlfriend came along. He brought her to the Black family’s annual banquet. She clung to his arm and called him Gabe. I quietly set down my utensils. Right there in front of both families, I took out the engagement agreement and slid it to the center of the table. “Gabriel,” I said calmly, “you were right. Staying loyal to just one person really is a loss.” Later, I stood before him again, this time with my hand linked with the only son of the Graham family. Gabriel smashed his glass on the spot. For the first time, his eyes turned red. “Erin, what do you mean by this?” I smiled and said, “Didn’t you tell me to try dating, too? Well, I did, and it suits me just fine.”

Felix didn’t say a word. He just tilted his umbrella slightly toward me.“That year, at the Black family’s annual banquet, I ran to look for you at the last minute, asking you to play that little act for me, and you agreed without questioning me,” I said.Raindrops tapped against the umbrella softly.“Weren’t you afraid I would use you? Afraid I might get broken off from the engagement and run back to him?”He was silent for a moment before he spoke, “I was.”“Yet you agreed?”He looked at the gray, misty sky ahead and said, “Because you came to me. I had waited for you for twenty-two years, and that was the first time you came to me.”I froze.“You came to our home when you were seven, wearing a pink dress, your hair in two braids, chasing butterflies in the yard. I hid on the stairs, watching you, thinking you were so beautiful.“When you got engaged to Gabriel at eighteen, I spent the whole night alone in my room. Then, I bought an apartment near your school. When my mom as

That night, I worked late. By the time I left the office, it was eleven at night. Felix had some last-minute business and told me he’d be late picking me up, so I could wait in the office. However, I told him it was fine and that I could drive myself. Outside, the rain poured down in sheets. I opened my umbrella and hurried toward the parking lot. The raindrops hammered against the fabric with a deafening pitter-patter, drowning out everything else.When I reached my car and just pulled out the keys, someone suddenly lunged at me from behind.“Erin!”I turned around and saw Whitney standing in the rain. Her hair was plastered to her face, tangled and wet, and she looked like she had just been dragged out of water. In her hand, she held a fruit knife. The blade caught the streetlight, flashing cold and sharp.“Erin, you ruined me!” she yelled, stepping forward. “My dad saw the news and has been hospitalized from the shock. Now the whole internet is tearing me apart! I’ve lost ever

On the weekend, Felix and I went to the mall to pick out favors for our engagement reception. The mall was crowded, but I linked my arm with his and enjoyed the casual rhythm of the day. Everything seemed normal until we reached the atrium, and I felt someone staring at me.At first, it was just a few people whose eyes scanned my face before they whispered to each other. However, as we moved forward, the number of people grew. Those gazes felt sharp, like needles pricking at me. A little uneasy, I quickened my pace. When we reached the center of the atrium, I froze. A crowd had formed on all sides. From the middle came the sound of someone crying.“I had no idea he had a fiancée. He never told me… Later, I found out and wanted to back out, but she kept pressuring me everywhere. I lost my company, my dad ended up in the hospital, and now I have nothing left…”That voice sounded familiar.I pushed my way through the crowd, and sure enough, there was Whitney. She stood at the café e

Two months later, I received a wedding invitation. It was Gabriel’s, but the bride’s name wasn’t Whitney; it was someone I’d never heard of, Lindsey Rochester.Where was Whitney? I was a little surprised.Felix, standing beside me, said, “I heard it was an arranged marriage by the Black family. The Rochester family is in the industry, and the alliance benefits the Blacks.”I set the invitation down and said, “Oh.”“Will you go?” he asked.“No.”He smiled but didn’t say anything more.Gabriel’s wedding was grand. The news was everywhere, with headlines screaming, “Son of the Black Family Marries!”I didn’t click to see the details, but scrolling through my phone, I still saw the photos. He was in a black suit, standing next to a woman in a white gown and a soft smile. Looking at that photo, I was reminded of the way he used to smile at me.Three months later, Felix and I attended a business cocktail party together. The moment we walked in, I saw Gabriel and Lindsey. Lindsey w

Felix walked over and handed me a paper bag.“I was passing by, so I got you something to eat,” he said.I opened the bag. Inside was a pizza and a cup of coffee. I looked up at him.“Felix, did you install a surveillance camera on me or something?”He paused to think about it before replying, “

I had been to the Black family’s annual banquet many times. Tonight, though, was the first time I walked through those doors without the title of “Gabriel’s fiancée.”“Is that Erin? Why is she–”“Who’s she holding hands with? Isn’t that the Graham family’s son?”“Then who’s the girl next to Gabri
