Shattered Dreams Chapter 7
In my final days, I made one last request of Jason.He didn't ask questions. He just wheeled me out of the hospital and took me to an old church. It was the place I had always dreamed of having my wedding.I scouted this place a few years ago and even made time to come here, memorizing every corner. I was worried that things might go awry as I was setting up this place. I wanted to make it perfect.Back then, my head was full of love, like a dream made of cotton candy.Who could have guessed that I would return here three years later—not in a wedding dress, not hand in hand with him, with smiles on our faces, but quietly moving through empty aisles.Jason didn't say a word. He just watched as I wandered through the church. His eyes darkened, as if finally understanding something.To be honest, he looked worse than I did. He was so skinny that he looked bony, his face was ghostly pale, and he was so frail that a gust of wind could knock him over.When I arrived, I saw a spark o

I turned down Jason's proposal.Still, he stayed by my bedside like he was nailed there, ignoring the looks of others and not caring how pathetic he appeared.I knew deep down it wasn't love that kept him here. It was the guilt inside of him that he could never overcome. He believed he owed me, so he wanted to pay it back using his own body.When my parents arrived at the hospital, he just quietly moved a stool to the hallway, sitting in the corner and never saying a word. They didn't hate him, not exactly, but they couldn't help being a little resentful. Mostly, they were worried that seeing him would stir up my emotions and make things worse.I just smiled and reassured them, telling them I had stopped caring a long time ago. To me, Jason was no different than a stranger I passed by on the street anymore.I said this knowing he was right outside listening, pressed up against the door.And yet, he still wouldn't leave.Eventually, he quit his job altogether. Whenever my paren

Eventually, I got the truth about Wendy out of Jason.As it turned out, she had been playing all of us for fools from the start. Jason was just one more pawn in her game, and not even an important one.All that talk about planning her wedding? It was just a show for some rich man overseas whom she was dreaming of. The reason she dragged Jason for such a performance was so that when the man saw it, he would rush back to claim her—maybe even storm her wedding in a jealous fit.But he barely remembered Wendy. He had already moved on to someone new, drinking away his nights on another continent and enjoying the sunrise together. Even the down payment for her wedding was covered with the breakup money he had tossed her as a parting gift.As for stealing my wedding design? That was just Wendy's way of stepping on someone else to make herself feel superior."If I can't be happy, nobody gets to be." Those were the very words she told Jason after dropping the act.Honestly, when it

I dropped everything and moved back home.My parents must have sensed things were over with Jason. They kept hinting, gently urging me not to be so stubborn, suggesting maybe I could give him another chance. They even promised they wouldn't pressure me to get married anymore. It was fine to just let things be.But I could never bring myself to tell them the truth.It wasn't just the cold shoulder and humiliation I had endured these past months. The real reason was a medical report with the word "cancer" written on it. I couldn't let them see it. I was scared they wouldn't be able to handle the shock.My mom had surgery a few years back, and her health was unstable. Even the slightest trouble could put her in bed for days.So I went all in on being the perfect daughter. Cooking, washing dishes, doing every chore I could, trying everything to make them happy, just so they would stop worrying about me.It worked. Seeing me so busy, they eventually stopped asking questions. But at
Shattered Dreams Chapter 3
I had dreamed about this wedding more times than I could count.For five whole years, I revised and refined it. I stayed up countless nights to piece together my vision of perfection. Nobody knew every detail better than I did, from every angle of the lights to every shade of the flowers. I memorized them all by heart.Today's rehearsal brought out a crowd. Officially, it was just a rehearsal, but the scene was as grand as the real thing.Jason even called in a pretty well-known photographer from his circle. I knew him as well, and his name was Zeke Wood.Zeke walked over with a big smile as soon as he spotted me. "Congratulations! I knew something's up with him lately! He even asked me where to buy a Cartier ring. Said he wanted to pick the perfect one. Don't worry, I'll make you look like a movie star today. You'll be absolutely stunning!"I didn't say anything; I just gave him a faint smile and motioned toward the bride's hand.There, on her finger, was a brand-new Cartier w

Today, I had a follow-up appointment at the hospital.As soon as I finished checking in and looked up, I saw someone who shouldn't be there.Wendy froze, clearly not expecting to run into me. She forced a smile and started to say hello, but before she could finish, a man appeared behind her, nearly out of breath and struggling with the two large bags in his hands.It was so ridiculously coincidental.That man was my boyfriend of seven years, Jason.I clenched my fists and tried to keep my voice steady as I forced down the bubbling emotion inside of me. "What a coincidence, right?"Jason immediately began a round of explanations, but the more I listened, the colder my smile became. "You couldn't just ask her questions over the phone? You had to bring her here yourself, running around the hospital looking for someone she knows?""She wants to take care of her skin before the wedding. She's never been to a hospital before, so she's nervous about getting lost in all the procedur
