On my wedding day, my fiancé bailed. Sabina—his ex—had sent him a diary listing 77 things she'd done for him. Turns out she only dumped him because his family pushed her to. So, he ran back to her. While I was still reeling, Jacob—my fiancé's best friend—showed up. He got down on one knee, flashed a ring he'd clearly had ready, and said, "Yuna Auclair, I've liked you for a long time. Will you marry me?" I thought he was my person. But after the wedding, Jacob turned distant. Hot one second, ice-cold the next. Then I found a diary in his study. Just like the one Sabina had sent my ex. Page one hit like a truck: [Hurt Yuna Auclair seventy-seven times, and I'll break up with Gabriel and be with you.] Oh—and Gabriel? He was my ex.

I Was His To-Do List Chapter 8
The institute was buzzing about this huge performance, and out of nowhere, the director picked me for a solo. I was floored—hadn't performed since college.Leo swung by when he heard, hyping me up like always.When I hit the stage, I let go. Every move felt right. The crowd? Ate it up.Then backstage, this massive bouquet showed up—9,999 red roses. Everyone freaked, thinking Leo sent it. Until I read the card.[Yuna, I saw your performance today. It was perfect.]And boom—Jacob walked in."You like the roses?" he said. "Picked them one by one from the biggest garden around. Fresh and vibrant, just like you."I let out a dry laugh. "Oh? Thought red was more Sabina's vibe. Did she get her roses too? Or just the two dresses you prepped?"Jacob scrambled. "I'm done with her, I swear. Look—I even blocked her." He held up his phone like that proved something.I shut him down. "I don't care. I'll never forgive you. How are you still not getting that?""Yuna, I know you hate me. But

Jacob tried to say something else, but when he saw Leo standing firm in front of me, he backed off and left without another word.Just like that, he threw my life into chaos all over again.***Leo picked up on my mood and handed me a card. It was from the Royal Art Institute."They're recruiting ballet dancers. You should try.""But..." I hesitated."I think you've got it. You trained for years. Don't tell me you never loved it."His words landed soft, like rain on something I thought had already dried up.I took the card. After a beat, I looked at him and gave a solid nod.Next morning, I was heading out for the audition when someone darted out of nowhere, snatched my bag, and ran."Thief! Somebody stop him!"I shouted—and then saw a familiar figure take off after him.Jacob caught up to the thief fast, cornering him in some alley."Give it back," he said.But the guy pulled a knife.By the time I got there, a crowd had gathered. An ambulance was already parked."Dude
I Was His To-Do List Chapter 6
The second I stepped off the plane, I spotted my parents waiting nearby.They rushed over, grabbing my hands, their faces full of questions.Guess that's what blood ties do—soon as I said I was coming back to Norvane, they already knew something was up.Mom's eyes went glassy."It's enough that you're home. We were too caught up in work when you were little... but now? Stay with us. You'll always be our little princess."Her words hit me hard—eyes stinging, chest warm.My parents worked in chip development, all high-tech stuff, but there wasn't a spot for me there.Mom gently asked if I still wanted to dance. I shook my head.I'd only done ballet for someone else. That drive? Gone. Especially with the scar on my leg.Then Leo, our neighbor's son who was a little older, chimed in, "Wanna work at my flower shop?"It was actually a great idea, so the next day, I joined the "Love" flower shop crew.Leo was all-in on plants—majored in horticulture, started the shop right after co
I Was His To-Do List Chapter 5
Jacob's phone hit the floor.His ears rang, two sentences looping on repeat—She's loved you for nearly ten years. She risked everything to save you.But he hadn't known. Not really.That night, after getting jumped, he woke up in the hospital.The doctor said some frail girl had dragged him in.Then he saw Sabina in the hallway.He just... assumed it was her.Still reeling, Jacob drove straight to Sabina's place.As he pulled up, he spotted two figures kissing out front.One walked away.Only then did he step out of the car.Sabina turned, caught off guard."What are you doing here? Gabriel didn't see you, did he?"Jacob's eyes burned red."So you're scared he'll find out? Didn't you say you'd break up with him for me?"Sabina grabbed his hand, nervous."Of course I will—as long as you finish the seventy-seven tasks—""Yuna's gone," Jacob said, voice tight. "I need to know—was it really you who saved me that night? You said she bullied you in high school. That the li

Jacob freaked out.He fumbled for his phone, called Yuna. It rang and rang—no answer.He shot her a text. Red exclamation mark. Blocked.He called the maid."She left with a suitcase two hours ago," she said. "Told me not to tell you. But she did leave something—"He didn't wait. Hung up and sped home.The place looked untouched.But when he opened the wardrobe—empty. All her clothes gone.The maid handed him a red box.Their wedding rings.No ceremony, just a quiet exchange.He remembered the way Yuna smiled when he slid the ring on her finger.Now he gripped it like it was the last piece of her left.Something in his chest twisted tight.He called his assistant Peter. "Find her."Then he sat on the couch, silent.Staring into nothing.***By ten that night, Jacob doubled over in pain.Stomach again.Yuna used to catch it early—had his meds ready before he even asked.Now? He didn't even know where they were.As the pain worsened, he used the last of his strength
I Was His To-Do List Chapter 3
I stood frozen outside the bathroom, listening. The sounds. The closeness.My heart just... dropped.My hand brushed the scar on my thigh—the one from college, when I jumped in front of a car to save him.Never thought he'd grow to hate it.***Jacob didn't get home until late.I lay there, staring at the ceiling, wide awake.He didn't come straight to bed. Hit the study first.Minutes passed. Then he slipped in beside me, pulled me into his arms.Kissed my forehead like nothing had happened.Only then did I shut my eyes.A single tear slipped down.***I was on the phone with my parents when Sabina waltzed into the house."Jacob dropped me off last night. Think I left something here," she said, way too casual. "Figured I'd see how you two are doing."She grabbed a couple's keychain off the table and smirked."Don't tell me you actually thought he married you for love."Her words hit like a slap."Gabriel loved ME. That's why he dumped YOU. Jacob loves ME too—that's w
