"I..."
Luke was about to speak, but he was interrupted by the girl who hurried over.
"Hello, my name is Sarah, and I'm Luke's fiancée."
Sarah pretended not to know me.
She was telling me that Luke was her man.
I looked at Luke, who said he would wait for me yesterday. Even though I was mentally prepared, I still felt the pain in my heart.
The pain made my voice tremble uncontrollably.
"Luke, is that so?
"Then who am I?"
I blocked Luke and deleted everything related to him, pretending that this person had never appeared in my world.
The roar of airplane engines was around, and Sarah's ridicule came into my mind.
"It's just a game."
"Luke, you've had enough fun in these three months, haven't you?"
"Ms. Smith, Luke likes to play games to pass the time."
"You wouldn't take a man you met from a bar seriously, would you?"
"We are all adults. I thought you would understand that."
"Or, I can give you money."
What lingered in my mind was Luke's silence and his evasive eyes.
I took out a jewelry box from my bag.
Inside were two wedding rings that I secretly customized and designed myself.
Suddenly, I smiled.
Sarah was right.
How could I take a man I met at a bar seriously?
We were all adults, and I should let it go.
Besides, I dated Luke, a young rich man, and I didn't lose anything.
After we separated at the airport, I spent a month at the beach.
It was ten o'clock in the evening when I arrived at my home.
As soon as I got out of the taxi, my neighbor anxiously pulled me aside.
He asked me if I had had a fight with Luke.
He said that during the time I was away, Luke would often squat at my door when he was drunk in the middle of the night, causing many other neighbors to complain every day.
I felt a little dizzy from my neighbor's words.
I suddenly remembered that before going to the airport that day, I changed the door password and deleted Luke's fingerprint.
During the month I was away, I turned off my cell phone and never turned it on.
I had been abroad for many years and didn't have many domestic friends.
So I would occasionally use my new number to call my parents and to chat with my best friend, Amy.
But I didn't expect Luke to do this.
My phone suddenly rang. It was Amy calling.
After talking to my neighbor, I headed straight for the bar carrying my suitcase.
The lights flickered and the music was deafening.
I told Amy what had just happened.
