In the hospital, the doctor carefully pulled out the thorns that had pierced my body. It was as if all the love I had felt for so many years had left my body along with the thorns.

The next morning, I saw that Lucas had called me on WeChat for the first time.

"Why didn't you answer the phone?" he asked.

"Didn't you block me?" I asked back.

After a while, he replied, "I will be home in half an hour. I brought you some freshly baked pineapple cakes and egg tarts. Oh, and I also bought you a new wedding ring. I really wronged you these past two days, but I won't do that again."

I looked up at the time and said calmly, "There is no future for us."

Unfortunately, Lucas had already hung up the phone. There were still three hours before twelve o'clock. I opened his computer and tried several passwords. Finally, I opened it with Chelsea's birthday. I just sat in front of the computer, waiting for Lucas.

Half an hour passed, then an hour passed... I turned on my phone and saw that Chelsea had updated her status again. She was sitting in the passenger seat with Lucas , their fingers interlocked, both wearing the latest wedding rings. I smiled and used his account to send a group message to everyone in the company about my seven-year story with Lucas and the evidence of his cheating that I had collected during this period.

Then I smashed my computer, picked up my suitcase and went to the airport alone. When I was checking in, countless messages and calls flooded in. I could almost imagine Lucas's frustrated look and my mother's hysterical look. But all this had nothing to do with me.

I pulled out the SIM card and threw it into the trash can. The whole world suddenly became quiet. Sitting on the plane, I watched the clouds outside the window drift away with the wind. It seemed that everything in the past was saying goodbye to me - my childhood, my love, my family, everything about me.

I know that even if Lucas is angry, he will not chase me to a foreign country for me; and my mother will only sit at home and curse me day after day. None of them will change their original lives for me. From this moment on, the two people I once cherished the most will have nothing to do with me.

I had a rare good sleep on the plane - I wasn't awakened by nightmares or Lucas. In the dream, there was no past, only the future. When I got off the plane, I saw Mavis waving at me happily. Her smile stopped when she saw the scars of all sizes on my body...
