"David, where are you?! I've been waiting for you at the Civil Affairs Bureau for ten minutes!" On the other end of the phone, Sunny's anger erupted like a volcano, rushing straight towards me.
"I was in a car accident and I'm in the hospital now." I responded with difficulty.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that I have canceled the marriage registration." My words revealed endless fatigue and pain, and every word seemed to be soaked in medicine, heavy and bitter.
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, and then I heard her nonchalant voice, saying the most hurtful words: "Let's put the marriage certificate aside for now."
" I just happened to take my employees out for a trip during this National Day." Her words were full of indifference, and she hung up the phone without waiting for my response. I looked at the hung up phone, and my whole body felt like it was falling into an ice cellar.
There was not a word of concern, not a word of apology. I seemed like just a passer-by in her life. Ten years of relationship was just wasted like that. I had trusted the wrong person.
During the seven days I was in the hospital, Sunny never showed up, not even a single phone call. It wasn’t until I looked through Ethan ’s Moments that I realized that the trip Sunny was talking about was actually a trip to Hawaii with Ethan alone—the place I had always dreamed of spending my honeymoon with her.
In the Moments, Ethan was wearing swimming trunks by the glass sea, with the rings on his hands sparkling, and Sunny ’s figure could be vaguely seen in the corner behind him . What was even more eye-catching was that the photo was accompanied by the text: “Business reward from the beautiful boss!”
I had seen the pair of rings in Sunny's pocket before, and I naively thought that they were a surprise for me to get my marriage certificate. And I also carefully prepared a diamond ring that she loved the most for her. It turned out that it was all just my wishful thinking.
I sneered and clicked the "like" button, but I didn't expect to receive a call from Sunny the next second.
"David , you are looking for trouble, right? Why are you giving a like in such a weird way? Ethan is coming back now, you think the round-trip ticket is free, right?" Her questioning made my heart burn with anger.
" Hurry up and apologize to Ethan , he just helped me negotiate a big contract last month, if he resigns, I will never forgive you!" Faced with her questioning, I was too lazy to expose her lies. At the celebration banquet, she gave employees rings worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, and even wore couple rings. Afterwards, she went on vacation to Hawaii alone with him. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is their wedding and honeymoon.
I hung up the phone and cancelled the like. Looking at the last number in the phone list, I hesitated again and again, but finally dialed it.
"Sister, I want to go back to you. Do you still want me?" My voice trembled a little.
The voice on the other end of the phone was full of doting: "I said, no matter when, I will always keep a place beside you." At that moment, tears fell from the corners of my eyes.
" Then I will wait for you to come back." I said with a sob.
Faye is my stepfather's child, an excellent computer engineer, who went abroad to settle down after graduating from college. She took good care of me since I was a child, but since I insisted on being with Sunny, she cruelly cut off contact with me.
I hung up the phone, and bitterness suddenly surged in my heart. I wasted the past ten years on a scumbag. On the day of discharge from the hospital, Sunny also came back.
It was late at night when she got home. I had just finished washing the clothes that had accumulated during this period and was standing on the balcony in a daze. I held the condom I found in her pocket tightly in my hand, and my heart was broken.
Sunny appeared downstairs with Ethan , and the two hugged each other tightly, unable to part. This scene was like a sharp knife stabbing into my heart, making me so painful that I couldn't breathe.
Once upon a time, Sunny and I were so in love. She was my senior, and when I was a sophomore, she had already started a business. Every time I went back to school, she would hold my hand and kiss and hug me, hoping that I would spend more time with her.
I thought such a strong relationship would lead to a happy ending, so I rejected Faye's plan to move abroad and chose to stay in China to accompany her in starting a business. However, in the end, I ended up with this ending.
heard the sound of a door opening behind me, followed by Sunny 's accusatory voice: "What's going on? Why is the house so messy!"
Sunny frowned and looked around as soon as she entered the door. She has a mysophobia. I was afraid that if the aunt didn't clean well, she would feel uncomfortable, so I did all the cleaning at home myself. Every time she got a rash on her body, I regretted not cleaning it well. Now I think that my efforts have become a matter of course and a reason for not being cherished.
Sunny's phone kept ringing, she smiled and replied to the message. Then she kicked the suitcase beside her feet and said without looking up: "You are washing clothes, please wash the clothes in my suitcase. I can't stay in this house, I will go to the hotel, call me when you are done cleaning."
After that, Sunny put away her phone, gave me a brief explanation, and turned away. Seeing her back, I called out to her, "Wait." I limped after her, and her eyes fell on my knees, with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "Are you really hurt?"
I didn't explain, but just stuffed the condom into her hand: "Take this with you, you can use it." Sunny and I haven't used this thing for a long time, and she knows who it can be used on.
