The awkward moment passed quickly, and everyone soon went back to enjoying the party.I laughed and joked along with them, genuinely happy for the two stars of the night: my best friend, Zoe Cole, and her boyfriend.The teasing had started earlier when, halfway through the party, Lucas Brent suddenly dropped to one knee and proposed to Zoe.That left only Felix Foster and me as the last two in the group with no signs of marriage after all these years.During one of the games, Zoe changed seats and sat beside me, quietly squeezing my hand under the table.I gave her a small reassuring smile.Back then, among all of us, Felix and I had been the first couple to get together. Everyone thought we would also be the first to get married.However, six years had passed, and somehow we were still only boyfriend and girlfriend.…By the time the party ended, most of our friends had already left. Only Felix, Zoe, Lucas, and I stayed behind.Zoe pulled me into a hug and whispered softly i

Zoe took me out for drinks.She and Lucas were starting wedding prep soon, and she wanted one last chance to relax before things got busy.A completely wholesome kind of relaxing.She got drunk fast, but still insisted on taking me home first.I laughed, but my chest ached a little too. Even drunk, my best friend was still thinking about me first.Felix would always choose Lacey over me.I comforted her. "I'm staying at your place anyway. We'll just go home together."I had moved out of Felix's place a few days earlier to sort through our relationship. Lucas happened to be away on a business trip, so Zoe asked me to stay with her for the last few days of her single life.When we got home, I carried her onto the couch. She mumbled vaguely into the cushion."Sara... if something's broken, throw it away. Don't force yourself to hold onto it."Zoe and I had known each other for over ten years. Even when I said nothing, she could still tell how conflicted I was.I smiled and rubb

He stiffened. He probably remembered the night I was thinking of.That night he had been in the shower. His phone rang. I had not planned to answer, but it kept ringing. I thought I would just tell whoever it was that he was unavailable.I picked it up. The contact name on the screen was 'Lacey.'He came out of the bathroom and snatched it out of my hand.He accused me of not trusting him. Of invading his privacy.After that night, he deleted my fingerprint and changed the passcode.I took my phone back and walked past him into the master bedroom, pulling my pillow and blanket out.He saw what I was doing and strode over."What are you doing?""I've got some things on my mind. I'm sleeping in the guest room tonight. I won't bother you."His lips tightened."So now you don't even want to sleep in the same bed with me?"I stayed silent.He walked past me into the master bedroom and slammed the door shut.I shook my head and went to the guest room.I had just finished layin

I had gone through all of that, and I had still stayed with him until now.Hadn't I already given him enough chances?I smiled faintly."Let's end things properly, Felix."Before he could respond, I hung up and blocked every way he could contact me.…Before I left the country, Zoe and Lucas held their wedding.In truth, it had been less than three months since Lucas proposed. Normally, that would have been a tight timeline for a wedding.However, Lucas had already prepared most of it before the proposal ever happened.Zoe laughed and asked him, "What if I had said no to your proposal? What would've you done then?"Lucas answered honestly, "Then I would've kept waiting. I'd wait for you forever."Even Zoe, who was usually playful, ended up crying at that.I watched the couple exchange their vows onstage. I thought about how they had met and fallen in love, and then I thought about everything Felix and I had gone through together.At least my friend still got her happy endi
