The Therapy of Letting Go Chapter 11
Extra: Five days had passed.Sarah still hadn’t come home.Peter was growing restless.Her cold, distant gaze kept flashing through his mind.He had noticed the change in her, of course.But he refused to believe it.After all, he’d been her first boyfriend.Sarah’s love had always been fierce and devoted.It had even troubled him once—how much she dreamed of their wedding, by the sea, with horses and flowers.It was wonderful, in its way, but also troublesome and expensive.Sarah leaving in a fit of anger and blocking his number this time had been too much.A flicker of panic stirred in Peter’s chest.He wanted to find her, but she hadn’t told any of their mutual friends where she was.And then, a knock sounded at the door.It was Julia again.She’d been showing up every day lately.He didn’t have the heart to turn away a heartbroken divorcée.When he opened the door, she stood there carefully dressed, a fitted pencil skirt tracing the curves of her body.Peter swallowed hard, unable

Had he sneaked in a couple of push-ups while changing just now?The thought made me laugh.“Is the girl you’ve liked for six years someone I know?”…Peter still hadn’t paid back the money, even though his salary was high.I’d been buried in work and hadn’t had time to chase it up.Seth gave the core team stock options, and everyone started working even harder.Then one day, I got a call from one of Peter’s buddies.“Hey, Sarah, Peter knows he was wrong. He’s drunk and keeps saying your name…”Over the past year, I’d blocked Peter and several of his friends on multiple numbers.Apparently, there were still some I’d missed.Too tired from overtime, I decided to treat the call as mild entertainment and didn’t hang up right away.Sensing hope, his friend grew more animated.“That Julia, we’ve all met her. She’s a total trash, nothing like you, Sarah! Peter just pitied her, there’s nothing romantic going on, really!“Come on, couples fight and make up. You two have been together for years—

I accepted readily.After we landed, Seth went with me to meet the lawyer.Peter and his lawyer were there too.When he saw Seth and me arrive together, his face twisted for a moment.He stared at me the whole time.Because there were transfer records and the deposits had been made in the name of marriage, reclaiming the money wasn’t difficult.But Peter refused to cooperate.“Julia’s already left the country. I’m not in contact with her anymore. Why are you still fighting with me?“I admit I handled some things poorly before, but…”I didn’t look up. “Transfer ninety thousand to this account.”Peter stared at me. “Are you that heartless?”I said to Seth, “Let’s grab a bite after this.”Peter glared and shouted, “Sarah!”As Seth and I were leaving, Peter suddenly gave up pretending.“Hey!” he called.“Seth, you know I’ve been with Sarah for five years, right? In those five years, we’ve tried everything in bed. You’re just picking up what I threw away…”Seth moved and hit Peter.After a

Seth said he wanted to try the fitness class too, but since it was a women’s program, I had no choice but to turn him down.Judging by his build, he probably worked out regularly anyway; he didn’t need to take classes with me.As I was leaving the office, I spotted Peter wandering nearby.It looked like he was searching for me.In a foreign country, that was like looking for a needle in a haystack.He must’ve been here on a short trip; he’d have to return home soon.I wasn’t worried about him finding me, just disgusted that he’d even try.A few days later, my mom called.The moment I picked up, she started scolding me.“What’s going on with you and Peter? He’s here now. Come back right this instant.“You’re not a kid anymore. You’re getting married soon, and now you’re pulling a stunt like running away from home?”I thought I heard Peter’s voice in the background, playing peacemaker, telling her not to blame me and saying everything was his fault.A bitter laugh escaped me. “Mom, I’m n

“He cheated on you?”“Yeah.”“And now he wants to get back together?”“Something like that.”“Do you want to get back together with him?”I rolled my eyes, too lazy to answer.“Seth, you ask way too many questions.”In the dim light, Seth looked at me.Being stared at by someone that handsome made it hard not to feel flustered.My cheeks warmed slightly.A few seconds later, he suddenly said, “Take a guess, why do you think I’m asking so much?”…The next day, I saw Peter again.But he wasn’t there for me.Julia stood beside him.They walked out of a luxury boutique together.Julia clung to his arm while Peter carried a luxury shopping bag—the kind he’d never once bought for me.The moment Julia saw me, her expression soured.With a mocking smile, she said, “Peter, see? I told you she couldn’t stay away. She even followed you here.”Peter slipped his arm out of her grasp and walked toward me.“Sarah, don’t misunderstand. I’m just keeping her company to help her unwind…”I turned and wa

With her, he’d found the taste of everyday life—simple, ordinary, yet somehow comforting.The routine of cooking and chores didn’t bother him.But that didn’t mean he wanted to cut Julia out of his life completely.A first love was always different.He was just doing what any friend would.When Julia threw herself into his arms, trembling as she cried, Peter finally called the restaurant to postpone the proposal to tomorrow night.After all, he hadn’t told Sarah about it yet.As he thought about it, he sent her a message: [Sarah, I have to work late tonight. Let’s have dinner tomorrow instead.]He waited for a reply, but none came.Scrolling through their old messages, he sighed.At some point, Sarah had started replying slower and slower.Maybe she was still quietly upset.But it didn’t matter.After tonight, he’d make it up to her.He’d give her the wedding she’d been dreaming of.As for tonight, he told himself this would be his last indulgence.It was a farewell to his first love a
