Wendy owed me a lot,and I just needed an explanation from him.
But no matter how many times I called him until my phone was burning hot,he never answered.Later,I couldn't even get through to him at all.He had also blocked or deleted me from all other contact methods.
I sneered.This man was so spineless.
During the few days in the hospital,Claire and Ryan took turns taking care of me,and my body soon recovered.
But the trauma in my heart was like a brand that couldn't fade away for a long time.I would even involuntarily tremble all over when I saw a male doctor approaching.The doctor said this was a stress response and I needed to recover slowly.
Later,I was discharged from the hospital and temporarily stayed at Claire's place.Claire helped me bring back all my belongings from Wendy's place.
"Did he...ask about me?"I asked Claire.
"No.Give up on him.He seems to be living a very comfortable life!"Claire replied discontentedly.
My heart,my dignity,and everything about me should have been dead long ago.Everything about Wendy shouldn't have anything to do with me anymore.But when Claire said he was living a comfortable life,I still felt sad in my heart.
Why?Why could he live so comfortably!
Ryan would come to Claire's place every now and then to cook for us and,in accordance with the doctor's advice,do psychological counseling for me.I also gradually relaxed and wasn't so nervous around strange men anymore.
"Ryan is the most infatuated man I've ever seen.Zoe,why don't you just be with him?"Claire said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Do you think I'm still the'white moonlight'in other people's hearts like before?I'm already dirty.I even dislike myself.How can I be worthy of Ryan..."I said self-deprecatingly,and tears flowed down unconsciously.
"I don't dislike you!"Ryan,who should have been cooking in the kitchen,didn't know when he had stood behind us and heard what I said.
"You know that I've been loving you silently all the time.No matter what you become,I will still love you.I said I would always be here waiting for you!"
Ryan's affectionate confession made me break down and cry.What on earth had I done to deserve a man who loved me so much?
And over the years,I had been selfishly hurting him.
I didn't know if I was really moved or if I urgently needed someone to rely on after being stimulated.Just like that,Ryan and I got together.
We were still like we were in college,going shopping together,watching movies together,or just sitting together in a daze.The difference was that now we held hands no matter what we did.
And Wendy seemed to have disappeared from the world,and he was gradually fading from my heart.But for some reason,every time I thought of him,there was still a twinge of pain in my heart.
Especially in my dreams,his betrayal and the hurt he caused me would be repeated again and again.Several times I woke up crying from my dreams.
I deleted everything about him and was also ready to live a plain and contented life with Ryan wholeheartedly.
Until one day,an uninvited guest appeared on my Weibo.
At first,I noticed this person's existence because she always liked my Weibo status updates.
I had very few real-life friends on Weibo,so my status updates rarely got any likes.The likes from this person were particularly noticeable.
The photo on her profile picture was of a charming little girl who was as cute as a cat.When I clicked on her homepage,the content inside immediately made me feel uneasy.
She had shared all kinds of intimate photos with a man.Although only half of the man's face was shown,I could recognize him even if he was skinned.It was Wendy.
I thought I had already let go of him,but when I saw these photos,I still felt an inexplicable sense of loss in my heart.
A few days later,this girl actually sent me a private message saying she wanted to meet.I hesitated for a long time and finally agreed.I didn't know what I was expecting.Perhaps it was just unwillingness.
