Lance and I had been in a relationship for eight years. He went to my friend’s place to get his computer fixed. My friend found a lot of private videos of him and another girl on his computer and told me. Three days before the wedding, I secretly booked a flight ticket and decided to escape on the wedding day… I looked at the videos of Lance and Tara on the computer, and my mind went blank. I couldn’t imagine that my boyfriend, who was usually self-disciplined, would get together with his graduate student and take hundreds of videos. Lance and I met and fell in love in college. After graduation, we successfully stayed in school and worked. Lance proposed to me two months ago. After eight years of dating, I thought we could get married. But these videos caught me off guard. The most recent video was last weekend. They had sex in the study room regardless of the fact that I was still at home. They also had sex in the bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom. I was so angry that I was shaking, and my nails dug into my flesh. The young girl who obediently called me Ms. Yanes had been secretly with my boyfriend for a long time. And they treated me like a fool! I took a few deep breaths and closed my computer. I called my director, Richard. “Richard, have you submitted the list of people going to the countryside that you mentioned last time? I’ve made up my mind. I want to go.” Richard was very happy and said, “Not yet. I’ll add your name right away. But aren’t you getting married soon?” “It’s okay. Don’t worry. I’m not getting married.” I hung up the phone and booked a plane ticket for the wedding day. After Lance sent Tara home, he saw that I had replaced the mattress and sofa cushions at home with new ones. He came over and hugged me. “Irene, why did you suddenly change the mattress?” I smelled the faint perfume on him and felt extremely bad. I pushed him away and said lightly, “It was dirty, so I threw it away.” He didn’t notice my mood change and still had a smile on his face. “Tara was just praising you to me. She said you are a great cook, and she wants to come to our house for dinner next time.” If it was before, I would definitely be very happy to hear this. But now I just felt sick. I smiled and said nothing, just looked at him quietly. He looked away guiltily. “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?” Lance looked elegant and looked like a gentleman. In the past, when he looked at me with those eyes, I felt that he could only see me. It was not until now that I realized that all these can be pretended. He could have sex with Tara while saying that he wanted to marry me. Before I could say anything, his phone rang. He looked at me and went to the balcony with his phone. When I came out of the shower, he was still on the phone. Through the window, I saw a gentle smile on his face. It was a smile I had never seen before. How ironic! We had been together for eight years. When we first got together, there was still freshness between us. But now, we were more like an old couple living together. When Lance came back from the phone call, I was already asleep. He tiptoed to finish the shower and lay down with his back to me. The screen of his cell phone kept flashing. It was past eleven in the evening. He was still chatting with another person on his phone. He laughed from time to time. My heart completely fell to the bottom. He went out early the next morning, saying that his former students asked him to hang out. I looked at the two-day countdown on my phone and packed my luggage. It was dark, and Lance hadn’t come back yet. One of his students sent me their location. “Ms. Yanes, are you done with your work? Come and hang out with us!”
Lance went to their graduation party. To not take me with him, he lied that I was busy. As soon as I walked to the door of the box, I heard the sound of playfulness inside. Pushing the door open, I saw Lance was surrounded by them doing push-ups on the ground. And under him was Tara, who was blushing. “Three, two…” They were counting down loudly, and no one noticed me coming in. When they counted to the last one, they stopped. Lance could only support himself on top of Tara. “I didn’t expect Lance to be so strong!” “Yeah. Tara is so shy. Haha.” Lance held on for a few seconds and finally couldn’t hold on anymore and pressed on Tara. It immediately caused a burst of booing. “That doesn’t count. Start again!” Lance protected Tara’s head, and they laughed together. Suddenly, I said, “I’m here.” The room suddenly became quiet. Everyone’s eyes fell on me, as if they didn’t expect me to come so soon. Lance’s smile froze, and he quickly got up from Tara. “Irene, why are you here?” I sneered in my heart. If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have seen such a wonderful scene. “I’m done with work, so I came here to have some fun with you guys.” Lance’s excuse was exposed, and he didn’t dare to look at me with a guilty conscience. Tara got up from the ground and said with a smile, “Ms. Yanes, don’t think too much. We were just playing a game!” “Yes, truth or dare. I don’t drink, so I can only cooperate with them.” Lance quickly agreed. After saying that, he gave the others a wink. Afraid that I would be unhappy, they stopped playing games and started singing. I didn’t know who ordered the song called You’re Going to Marry Me Today. Everyone started to make a fuss again. They put the microphone in Lance’s hand. “This song must have been ordered by Ms. Yanes. You two are too much!” The microphone handed to me was snatched away by Tara next to me. She blushed and was embarrassed. “I ordered it. I wish Mr. Yeager and Ms. Yanes happiness in advance.” I didn’t miss the smug smile in her eyes. If it were in the past, I would definitely not think too much about it, and I would even feel sweet. Lance held the microphone and started singing. Tara stood up and sang along. I looked at them coldly, thinking of the little things in the past between Lance and me. I couldn’t help but drink a few glasses of wine. In the end, I really didn’t want to see their lovey-dovey eyes, so I pushed open the door and planned to go to the bathroom to get some fresh air. I just washed my face when I saw Tara walking in from outside. She smiled and greeted me. She touched up her makeup in front of the mirror. She was looking for lipstick. I didn’t want to stay any longer. As a result, when I turned around, a bunch of keys fell at my feet. The key chain on the ground looked familiar. I bent down to pick it up and stared at it. That was the couple doll I made last year. One for Lance and one for me. Lance’s key chain disappeared two months ago. It turned out that he gave it to her. Tara was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, “My boyfriend insisted on giving me such an ugly doll. I will throw it away when I get home!” Her tone was proud and provocative. I handed her the key chain without saying anything. She looked at me as if she didn’t expect me to be so calm. When we returned to the box, Lance asked me, “Are you not feeling well? Why were you gone for so long?”
The obvious concern in his eyes made my heart ache. In fact, when we first got together, there were also sweet days. He would go out to buy chestnuts for me in winter because I wanted to eat them. He would also put my cold feet on his stomach when I had menstrual pain. Soon, Lance’s eyes were attracted by Tara, who came in behind me. Tara reached out to grab the fruit plate but was slapped by him. “Aren’t you allergic to mangoes? Don’t eat it!” He pushed the fruit plate in front of me and looked at Tara nervously. “I didn’t plan to eat mangoes. I want to eat the watermelon next to it.” I listened to them talking and laughing as if no one was around, but my eyes fell on the fruit plate in front of me. The warmth that had just risen in my heart was extinguished again. My boyfriend of eight years remembered that Tara was allergic to mangoes, but he didn’t remember that I was allergic to kiwifruits. I really wanted to ask what my eight years meant to him. I drank a lot of wine at the end. Looking at Lance walking in front of me, talking and laughing with Tara, I suddenly wanted to cry. I was like a clown and could only stumble to keep up with their pace. When we reached the parking lot, Tara opened the passenger door before me and got in. Seeing that I was frozen in my position, she said apologetically, “I’m a little carsick, so I can only sit in the passenger seat. Ms. Yanes, you won’t be angry, will you?” Lance glanced at me and said, “What’s there to be angry about? Irene, you’re not carsick, then sit in the back. You’ve been drinking, so you can just take a nap.” They had already found a reason for me. I smiled bitterly and could only sit in the back. The car was shaking. I had a severe headache, so I had to close my eyes and rest. Until a rustling sound woke me up. I opened my eyes uncomfortably and saw that the car had stopped. “She won’t wake up, will she?” Lance didn’t even look at me. “Don’t worry. She’s in a deep sleep.” Tara smiled, grabbed his hand, and placed it on her thigh. His hand slipped under her skirt. They kissed passionately in front of me. I stared at them intently, and the last bit of fantasy about Lance was gone. They kissed for a long time before they separated. Tara took off her panty and stuffed it into his hand, then got out of the car with satisfaction. Lance hid the panty like a thief and then drove home. As soon as I opened the door, Lance hugged me from behind and pressed me on the sofa. I knew his desire was aroused by Tara. “Irene, we haven’t had sex for a long time.” He stared at me, and his hand slipped into my collar. I remembered the scene in the car and instinctively resisted him. At the same time, I felt sick in my stomach and vomited all the wine I drank that night on him. Lance immediately lost interest and got up to go to the bathroom. Before going to bed, I checked the countdown on my phone. There was only one day left until our wedding. The next day, Lance changed the location of the wedding photo shoot to the school. He said that was where we fell in love. He got out of the car as soon as it stopped at the school gate. I followed him with difficulty, carrying the heavy wedding dress. The high heels didn’t fit my feet very well, and my heels hurt every time I took a step. Today, outstanding graduates returned to school to participate in activities. When I saw Tara, I knew that the reasons he said were all excuses. Tara jumped to Lance, smiled and acted coquettishly at me. “Ms. Yanes, can I take a photo with Lance?” Before I said anything, she asked the photographer to help them take the photo. Compared to me, she looked more like a bride in a white dress. The photographer looked embarrassed. It was probably the first time he saw someone taking photos before the bride. Lance hugged Tara’s shoulders helplessly and acquiesced. I stood beside them. The pain in my heels reminded me that I was a clown all the time. More than ten minutes passed, and they still hadn’t finished yet. I didn’t want to wait any longer. After sending a message to Lance, I took a taxi home alone. Lance came home in the afternoon. He stood at the door and started to blame me. “Why were you so angry suddenly? How could you leave me and the photographer there and just walk away? You are an adult. Can you be more mature?” I was so angry that I couldn’t speak, wondering how he had the nerve to blame me. He continued to be aggressive, “Tara just wanted to take a photo with me. What will the staff think of her if you suddenly left?” She stole my boyfriend and took photos with him. Did I still need to consider her emotions? Then, who would consider me? I looked at Lance, who spoke for Tara. After so long, I seemed to have known him again. I didn’t want to argue with him, so I simply lifted up the hem of my dress to expose my calves. My heels were already worn out, which looked scary. Lance frowned when he saw it. “Why didn’t you tell me?” I sneered in my heart. His attention was all on Tara at the time. How could I tell him? His phone suddenly rang, and he glanced at me. “There are no Band-Aids at home. I’ll go out and buy you some.” After saying that, he turned around and walked out with his phone. I looked at the empty room, feeling sad. I took a shower, found some medicine to disinfect, put on a Band-Aid, and lay down. When Lance got home in the evening, he had forgotten about my worn heels. When he saw me sleeping, he tiptoed to the balcony to make a phone call. His figure was reflected on the glass window, with a smile on his face. He was chatting with Tara again. I didn’t know what was said on the other end of the phone. I only heard Lance say, “If I hadn’t felt guilty about being together for so long, I really wouldn’t want to marry her. “You’re younger than her. Of course, I like you more. Baby.” I thought I wouldn’t be sad. But hearing these words from his mouth, my heart still hurt so much that I couldn’t breathe. It turned out that in his eyes, I was just an old woman who had lost her freshness. I closed my eyes and let the tears flow. I put my phone against my chest, and the countdown on it was only three hours left. The next morning, I got in a taxi with my suitcase. On the way, I briefly told my parents about what happened and asked them not to come to the wedding. Fortunately, Lance said that the wedding should be simple. Except for our parents and friends, no one knew that we were getting married that day. Before going through security check, I thought about it and decided to call Lance to break up. The phone rang for three seconds and was connected. Before I could speak, I heard his impatient voice. “Why are you rushing? The wedding scene is ready. Can I run away? “Tara had a car accident while choosing a wedding gift for you. I’m in the hospital now. Can you be more sensible? “Calm our parents. I’ll come over after I’m done here!” He hung up the phone without even waiting for me to speak. I sneered and sent him a message: [Let’s break up. The wedding is left to you two.]
