- Ethan had no family; I handled his affairs. He
- owned little; his most precious possession
- was Lucky.
- After a few nights looking at Lucky becki.
- <
- After a few nights, looking at Lucky basking
- in the sun, I made a decision.
- I quit my job.
- Lily was shocked. “Sarah, no romance, we
- can still have careers! Why give this up?”
- I smiled. “I have a promise to keep.”
- I would go to Tibet and paint a sunrise for
- Ethan.
- I wasn’t skilled at landscapes, but I was good
- at portraits. Before leaving, I visited Sam.
- I offered to pay him to go to Tibet and paint a
- sunrise.
- Lily didn’t understand, thinking I was giving up
- everything for a promise.
- Jesse didn’t understand either. He’d secretly
- bought the art studio where I worked. Hearing
- about my resignation, he rushed over.
- I’d wondered about my unexplained absences
- and increased salary. Jesse had taken over
- the studio.
- <
- He frowned, speaking rapidly. “If it’s because
- of me, you don’t have to quit. I can transfer
- the studio to you immediately.”
- He pleaded, “Sarah, don’t be impulsive.”
- I looked at him calmly, seeing the years pass
- in his hair. “Jesse, why did you buy this
- studio?”
- He was in IT. Why would he buy an
- unremarkable, unprofitable studio?
- He lowered his head, his voice weak.
- “I…I wanted to compensate you…”
- He corrected himself, “I know I can’t make up
- for the hurt I caused, but…”
- “Stop,” I interrupted. “I don’t want to hear
- your self–pitying confession. Don’t flatter
- yourself, I’m not quitting because of you.”
- He was stunned. “Then why?”
- I looked up at the sky.
- The clouds parted, sunlight breaking through.
- Geese soared overhead.
- <
- My mood brightened.
- “I don’t want to live in the past. I want to see
- the future, a future without you.”
- Sam finished packing. I waved to him. “Sam,
- can you drive?”
- He nodded quietly. “Yes.”
- Happy, I drove off with him in my car.
- Jesse stood there, watching until we were out
- of sight.
- Lily crossed her arms, clicking her tongue.
- “The one who dwelled on the past moved on,
- and the one who let go is looking back. How
- ironic.”
- Jesse wasn’t so kind to Lily. His face turned
- cold. “Are you mocking me?”
- “Oh, fierce glare,” Lily giggled, tossing her
- resignation letter at him. “I quit. I’m not afraid
- of you anymore. I wish you a lifetime of
- loneliness, never seeing Sarah again!”
- She left. Jesse sighed.
- L
- He wouldn’t see Sarah again.
- Sarah no longer loved him.
- It was all his own doing.
