Future Me Says My Perfect Life Is a Lie Chapter 10
Fortunately, David was pulled back from the brink of death in the ICU.Unfortunately, the cutoff score for Crythoria University spiked that year. He missed the mark by just ten points. In the end, he settled for a top-tier university down south instead.During my junior year, when I brought my boyfriend, Javier Bishop, home, David happened to be moving out.His eyes lingered on my hand intertwined with Javier's for a few seconds before he asked naturally, "Your boyfriend?"I nodded, lacking any desire for small talk.While showing Javier around my bedroom and the photo wall of my childhood, he suddenly noticed a small dangling basket outside the window."Do you guys upstairs and downstairs usually communicate with this? That's pretty interesting."Opening the window, I found 17 photos resting inside the basket.There had been two copies of every photo. My set had already been shredded, so this was David's set.Ever since David and I fell out, this basket had never been lowered

The next time I saw David was during the summer break after my freshman year.I was carrying a watermelon upstairs to my apartment when he happened to be coming downstairs to throw out the trash.Perhaps because the year of repeating school had been so grueling, he looked significantly more haggard, though his eyes were remarkably bright."Feli…"Frowning, I cut him off. "Don't address me so intimately. I don't want anyone overhearing and getting the wrong idea."He pressed his lips together, instantly switching terms. "Felicity, my teacher said there's a really high chance I'll make it into Crythoria. On the day I report to campus, could you come to the school gates to meet me?"You're the only person I know at Crythoria. Also, I want to take one last photo with you."I paused.Being neighbors and close friends since childhood, David and I used to take a picture together every single year.The backdrop for the first 17 photos had always been the fig tree outside our apartment

"Feli, one of your high school classmates is here to see you," Mrs. Brown said.Crythoria University started the semester the latest, so aside from a few students repeating the year, almost everyone else in class had already headed off to start college.Who would suddenly come looking for me at a time like this?I opened the door in confusion, only to be faced with Brielle's pitiful, tear-filled eyes.She reached out to grab my sleeve and dropped straight to her knees in front of me. "Feli, please save me! I messed up on the SAT, and my parents refuse to fund me to repeat the year."Please lend me some money! You know what my real level is! If you just let me take it one more time, I can definitely make it into college."It seemed like she still didn't know she'd used disappearing ink pens. She was fully convinced she'd simply flopped her SAT.I took two steps back and looked at her indifferently. "I'm just a student too. I don't have that kind of money, and I certainly can't he

Hearing the commotion, my parents immediately rushed over, surrounding me to protect me as we walked away."Mom, let's not have anything to do with David's family anymore. We pour our hearts out treating them well, but they might turn around and bite us in the back."As for Brielle, we're no longer friends. If you ever see her coming over to our place, just kick her out."Mom knew we'd had a falling out.Invitations to my college acceptance celebration were sent out everywhere. Even the security guard at the neighborhood gate got one. The only ones left out were David and Brielle.The classmates who came all knew that David and Brielle had only scored a little over 600 on their exams, so they were smart enough not to bring either of them up in front of me.Yet just as the party wound down and I'd seen off all the guests, David—who was supposed to be at school repeating the year—suddenly showed up.He was holding a bouquet of sky-blue roses in his arms.Before the SAT, I'd casua

I heard David had already gone to the testing center to review his exam papers.They confirmed his score was completely accurate and that no one had swapped his papers.David was preparing to repeat the year and didn't even bother submitting his application choices.I wanted to say hello to his parents, but I held back, worried they'd think I was rubbing it in.Yet as I brushed past David, he suddenly reached out and grabbed my wrist. "Feli, I need to talk to you."With both our parents present, I gave him some courtesy and didn't embarrass him.He pulled me over beneath the fig tree outside our building.Standing a short distance away, my parents waved at me. "Feli, we'll wait for you right here."David looked at me with a complex expression. "Brielle only got a little over 600 on her SAT too.""Really? Sounds like your scores are quite the match. Repeating the year together or going to trade school together, and eventually getting married and having kids would make quite a r

"What?" David took two disbelieving steps back. "That's impossible!"I sneered. "Tell me, what's so impossible about it?"Ever since entering high school, I had maintained the spot for rank one in the entire grade.Even the teachers said that as long as I performed normally on the SAT, Crythoria University was a done deal."Or are you disappointed Brielle didn't turn out to be the top scorer?" I asked.David's face drained of color, and he shook his head in a panic. "That's not what I meant.""I don't give a damn what you meant. Get out of the way. I'm going downstairs to dump the trash."I brushed off his hand and turned to walk downstairs.Perhaps eager to rush home and check his own scores, David didn't try to argue with me.That evening, classmates started popping up in the group chat one after another."Felicity, I saw you on the news!""Congrats, city top scorer!""I can say I was high school classmates with the top scorer now. That's some serious bragging rights!"A
