When it was time to get off work, Cheryl sent me another message: the restaurant had been booked, and it was the same place we always sat. She also sent me a picture showing a pair of couple bracelets. I had suggested buying them for her to wear together a long time ago, but she refused because they were flashy and expensive.

And now, she actually paid for such an expensive bracelet. If it were before, I might be moved by her action. But now, I just glanced at it lightly, replied "it looks good", and continued to work calmly, without any ripples in my heart.

Maybe this kind of cold war is not bad, at least I am not as impulsive as before. I rejected the boss's request for overtime and came to the restaurant early. However, just like the last Mid-Autumn Festival, she did not come on time.

I waited and waited, calling and messaging her, but couldn't get through. I didn't leave until the waiter reminded me that the restaurant was about to close.

I rode a battery scooter alone on the street at 10 o'clock in the evening. The cool wind made me feel a little lonely and cold. After I got home, I turned on my phone and saw Lawrence 's circle of friends: You are my warmth. The picture was Cheryl standing on his balcony.

I was not surprised, because every time Cheryl broke a date, it seemed to be related to him. I continued to look at another picture. Cheryl and Lawrence put their hands together, and each of them wore a bracelet on their arms. The bracelet was so familiar, it was the couple bracelet that Cheryl sent me in the afternoon.

It turns out that she didn't buy such an expensive bracelet for me. I no longer felt the anger and impulse I had before. At this moment, I was very calm, as if I was enjoying a piece of gossip that had nothing to do with me, and thought proudly: See, I knew it would be like this, I guessed it a long time ago.
