We Were Here Together Chapter 9

When their lives unexpectedly intertwine; secrets come to the surface, loyalties are tested and lives are on the line.

姉の幼馴染と私は9年間の交際を続け、もうすぐ婚約する予定だった。 その日もいつも通り、彼が飲み会で飲酒した後、迎えに行くため店の前に足を運んだ。 声をかけようとしたその瞬間、不意に耳に入ったのは、彼の友人たちの悪ふざけ混じりの冷やかしだった。 「晃司、お前の初恋が帰ってきたんだろ？で、代用品はどうするんだ？捨てるのか、それとも二股かけるのか？」 藤原晃司の口元には、嘲るような笑みが浮かんでいた。 その場の空気をさらに悪化させるように、別の友人が大声で笑いながら続けた。 「晃司、本当羨ましいよな。初恋がいなくなって寂しかったからって、幼馴染の妹で暇つぶししてたんだろ？9年も付き合って、そろそろ飽きたって言ってたしな。それに、ちょうど初恋が帰国したタイミングだもんな！」 晃司は苛立ちを滲ませた声で応えた。 「だって、万田さゆりが『あんたの人生で愛するのは私だけ』なんてぬかしたんだぞ？だから安物の代用品で、あいつの自信を徹底的に叩き潰してやらなきゃ気が済まないだろ！」

There's about half a month to our wedding when Daniel Bradshaw and I get into a horrible fight. The reason? He wants to have a child with his mentor's daughter.

Daniel sounds indifferent, but my blood runs cold. "It's half a month to our wedding, yet you're going to have a child with another woman. Don't you find that ridiculous?" I watch as he storms off and slams the door shut behind him. Then, I update my social media. "I'm getting married in half a month, but I need a new groom. Is anyone up for it?"

Running away is easy. For Dyanne Collins, it's by far the easiest thing to do—perhaps even instinctive, but running from her problems can only get her so far. After her father passed away, she left everything behind, and now, ten years later, she is back where it all began Working directly for Alexander Morgan, the man she had been in love with before she abruptly ended things and moved away. Dyanne's plan: 1) Work in Morgan's company for two more years, 2) Pay off her debt and run away again, 3) and for no reason, fall for her ex-lover, Alexander Morgan. If she could do it back then, she could again. How long, though, can she run? How long until she faces all that has been holding her back? How long can she keep the secrets and questions of her past from coming back to haunt her? “It's going to be nothing serious, I can do it,”, but sometimes serious can sneak up on you in ways you never expected.

My roommate won first prize in the national lottery, a full 100 million dollars. She quit her job on the spot, blocked her boss, and said to me, "Amanda, from now on, we'll live in Luxuria Heights, eating the best food and living it up." We went on shopping sprees at Hermès and treated Michelin restaurants like our daily canteen. On moving day, she told me to go ahead to the top-floor luxury apartment and wait for her. She said she needed to pick up a package. Excited, I entered the password she had given me. "Beep. Incorrect password." I was just about to try again. Then, the door opened. The person who came out was not my roommate but a stranger in a suit. He looked at me and frowned. "Who are you? Why do you have the password to my home?" I was stunned. "This is Lydia Zaydn's apartment. Who are you?" The man's expression turned strange. "Lydia Zaydn? I've lived here for five years. I've never heard of that name."

My boyfriend, Sam Gibson, had a childhood best friend named Tina Lincoln. She was a star medical student. On the day Sam and I were supposed to get our marriage license, Tina took one look at the tight top I was wearing and flat-out claimed I had been sleeping around for years. She pointed at my chest with obvious disgust. “If men hadn’t been all over you, there’s no way your breasts would be this big.” Sam believed her completely. He started cursing at me, calling me a slut who had sleep with anyone, and refused to go through with the marriage license. I tried over and over to explain, but Tina just sneered at me. “People may be more open-minded these days, but that doesn’t mean you can sell your body and make your chest that big.” She used me as some kind of “example,” started a livestream to lecture people online, and exposed all my personal information. After that, strangers kept sending me disgusting, harassing messages, asking how much I charged for a night. Some even followed me and tried to force themselves on me. I begged her to clear things up for me, but she just shrugged and said, “If you never did that kind of thing, why would people be asking you?” In the end, I was assaulted and killed. And she went on to become a nationally famous influencer doctor, gaining fame and money at the same time. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day I was supposed to get my marriage license with Sam.
