The One They Never Chose Chapter 11
To my surprise, the system showed me mercy. However, the news did not bring me joy. I felt hollow inside.…Back in the real world, I woke up in a hospital bed. The nurse told me that Lucia, who had been in the car crash with me, did not make it."Oh, and there was someone named Shane in the crash too. He's alive."At that news, I looked up sharply, just in time to see Shane walking in with a crutch and a smile on his face."Yoana, looks like we're the real main characters of our own story now."I wrapped my arms around him, unable to hold back the tears.Shane later filled me in on everything.It turned out that while we were in college, he had a crush on me all along. He knew Lucia was out to harm me, so he tried to save me that day, crashing his car into hers. However, he could not prevent the accident.While unconscious, he met the system, which promised him a chance to live and return to the real world if he could win my heart.The system also revealed my situation to hi

"Ha, you're only saying these now? Did you forget that you were the one who sent Yoana to the psychiatric hospital?" Shane was really mad. He looked at Calvin and Patrick before continuing his tirade."Calvin, you're a doctor. You should have known better than anyone if Yoana was really sick, but you joined Jim in saying she was crazy!"Patrick, Yoana was there for you when you were having the hardest time. She even gave you a part of herself, and you didn't even say thank you. Instead, you married someone else."Everyone heard Shane's words loud and clear.For the first time, I saw them feel sorry and hurt.I did not know how Shane knew so much about me, but I was thankful. He did not just help me find peace; he also made sure everyone knew the truth. That way, I could see them feel sorry—even if it was after I was gone.That day, those guys did not leave me alone. They all tried to say sorry in their own ways.Jim brought a bunch of dolls, asking which one I would have liked

Then, I saw tears in Jim's eyes.I could not believe it. My brother, who had been so mean to me just a little while ago, was actually sad about my death."You weren't protecting her. You were torturing her!" Shane punched right back, and they started wrestling.Finally, I was taken back home.…Jim was crying in front of me. The last time I tried to hurt myself, Mom had to go to the hospital. Now, seeing me gone for good, she passed out again. She had to go to the hospital once more.I felt so bad for her, but I could not do anything.I was never really part of this world and could not stay with her forever.Then, Calvin showed up. When he saw my body on the bed, he just fell down.Calvin, who was always so cool and calm, was really upset then."Yoana... Yoana," he said, shaking as he took my hand. "Don't scare me. Wake up and look at me, okay?"Shane was really mad at him. "You care now, only when she's gone? What were you doing before?"Calvin did not say anything back.

It was then that I recognized him—Shane Chapman. He was my college friend in this world.I had tried to win him over once before but failed. He kept avoiding me, especially since he was always hanging out with Lucia.Eventually, I gave up on Shane and tried to get close to Patrick instead.Seeing Shane again felt like I was stepping into another lifetime. It had been years, but his eyes still had that same gentle look. That was why I had fallen for him in the first place."Sorry I'm late. I just got the message.""It's all good, I should be thanking you," I replied.Thanks to him, I had a chance to end it all.I asked him to take me out, to do the things we used to enjoy. We hit the arcade, caught a movie, and tackled an escape room. We had a blast, the best time I had had in ages.Later, when he was not looking, I sneaked off and bought a bottle of pesticide. I was ready to say goodbye and head home.However, Shane caught my hand, his eyes brimming with tears as he said, "I k

I thought Jim would feel bad for me this time and agree to my request. However, in the next second, he said, "Nobody who's sick ever thinks they're sick. We're doing this to help you."That was how I ended up in a tiny hospital room with just a bed and nothing else.Every day, a nurse would bring me food, and four other nurses would stand guard. They just watched me without saying anything.I felt like I was going to fall apart. I wanted to end it all, but there was no way. I had never felt so hopeless.I begged the system to just end it for me. However, it said, "Sorry, host, I can't do that. You have to do it yourself."That just made me despair even more.Whenever I moved the slightest bit in bed, a nurse would pop in and ask what was wrong.I watched every single second tick by. On the night I got there, Lucia showed up. She got the nurses to leave and strutted over to me in her high heels, looking all smug. "Feeling pretty hopeless, huh? Want to die but can't? You know, I

However, just then, Mom burst in. She grabbed the knife from me, tears streaming down her face. "Yoana, you can't leave me alone. Please don't do this.""Mom, how did you find me?"Her hair had gotten so much grayer. I had not been home in so long, and I felt awful about it."Jim told me you weren't feeling well, so I came to check on you." Her voice was full of worry. "I'm so glad I got here in time, or you might have done something terrible. Promise me you won't leave me, okay?"I could not bear to upset her, so I agreed.Jim walked in at that moment and saw the knife on the floor. His expression immediately turned stormy."Yoana, is a guy really worth all this trouble? Why can't you be more like me and Calvin? We both like Lucia, and she doesn't like us back, yet we still keep going."I did not respond. I just snuggled closer to Mom, soaking up her warmth.Mom stayed with me all night because she was scared I would hurt myself. Even though I felt better with her there, I kne
