I go to my boyfriend after hearing about him flirting with his college senior. On the way there, I get into an accident and suffer from temporary memory loss after a head injury. He hurries to the hospital but points at his stoic dormmate and claims he's my boyfriend instead. He wants to use this to get rid of me. I'm unaware of this, so I hold the handsome dormmate's hand and look at him with bright eyes. "So, you're my boyfriend." Later, I regain my memory but still want to be with the handsome dormmate. I want to sever ties with my boyfriend, but he breaks down.
View MoreNathan was still seated by the man-made lake when I arrived. He wasn't drinking anymore, though."Nathan!" I called.He turned in my direction, his gaze drunken and unfocused. "Is that you, Giselle?""Why have you had so much to drink?" I sat beside him and moved some unfinished beer bottles aside. "That's enough."He nodded, then shook his head without taking his eyes off me. He looked slightly slow-witted compared to his usual self and dragged his words as he said, "I'll feel bad if I don't drink."I asked, "Why?"He looked down and lifted my hand, pressing it to his chest. "It'll hurt here. You won't want me anymore."My nose prickled; I felt like needles had pricked my heart. "Whoever said anything about me not wanting you anymore?"Nathan had more to say now that he was drunk. "Because you like Evan. I fell for you when we were freshmen, but you've only ever had eyes for him. You've never noticed me. This is an opportunity I stole, so you'll hate me now that you've regaine
"The number you are calling is unavailable at the moment. Please try again later…"I didn't know how many times I called Nathan, but he didn't answer any of them. I curled up in bed and stared at the dark screen of my phone. The memories of our two weeks together flooded my mind; I had mixed feelings.It would be outrageous to say I'd genuinely fallen for him because of a misunderstanding, but I couldn't deny the memories were vivid. I thought about the hug we shared at the hospital and the warmth of his lips against mine.I also thought about the calm yet loving way Nathan had looked at me. I couldn't act like none of this had happened and started thinking about whether he and I had interacted in the past.Unfortunately, my memory wasn't the best. I couldn't even remember what I'd eaten the day before. It wasn't realistic to expect that I could remember anything about Nathan.One thing was for sure, though—Nathan had looked so sad and devastated when our gazes had met on the day
Evan grabbed his hair irritably and clucked his tongue. "I was busy that day and didn't have the time to stay at the hospital with you. That's why I said that. I didn't expect you to take it to heart and fool around with Nathan for so long."He clenched his fists, looking upset. "Stay away from him from now on. If not for this incident, I never would've known he wanted you for himself."I couldn't help letting out a derisive laugh at his words. "You only said that to brush me off? I doubt that."I pulled out my phone while looking at him icily. Then, I played the video I'd downloaded from my inbox during the meal.Evan stiffened as the video played. When it was over, he looked up at me and forced a smile. "Who sent this to you, babe? Don't believe any of it. I was running my mouth because I was drunk."I put my phone away and looked into his eyes. "You know what, Evan? I only got into the accident because I saw this video and was in a hurry to ask you about it. We've known each ot
"Yeah. Haven't you always wanted to marry Evan? You guys have been together for three years now, and your relationship has always been stable. It's almost time for you two to graduate, so your father and I figured we would buy your marital home before the price skyrockets," Mom said."Wait!" I was dumbstruck. Did she just say I've always wanted to marry Evan? I was about to refute her when an arm wrapped around my shoulder and pulled me aside.I turned to meet Evan's eyes, which were curved into half-moons from his smile. He said, "Got it, Mr. and Mrs. Rhode. We'll be back after our finals; you guys don't need to worry about Giselle. After all…"His eyes glinted. "…I'm her boyfriend. It's only natural that I care for her."My pupils constricted as I stood there. In that instant, everything connected—Mom and Dad's words, my dormmates' reactions, Evan's weird behavior, and… Nathan's oddness.My head throbbed painfully as my missing memories returned. I remembered everything now. Eva
From that day on, I noticed how oddly Nathan acted. I thought it was because he felt insecure, so I suggested we move out of the dorm and into an apartment again.He initially disagreed but ultimately gave in when he saw how insistent I was. And so, I excitedly dragged him around to view different apartments."The one we just saw had great lighting, Nathan. It's a little high up, though. The one we saw yesterday is on the first floor and is more convenient, but the rental is a little too expensive…" I felt conflicted. Nathan and I were both students; we had to consider several aspects."Actually…" Nathan pursed his lips as he looked at me. "I have an apartment near campus."I widened my eyes. "What?""My parents bought it for me when I got into college."I stood there for a while as I processed this. Then, I said, "I hate rich people."He chuckled. "Come on, don't be like that. What's mine is yours, right? The place is cleaned regularly, so we can move in today… If you don't min
I frowned. Something inside of me told me I didn't like the woman. Still, I answered politely, "Hi."The woman's smile widened. "Evan told me about your accident. Are you feeling better now?"Seeing that she was merely concerned about me, I ignored my discomfort and smiled. "Yeah, I'm fine now. My memory is affected, but the doctor said I'll make a full recovery soon."Evan chuckled and wrapped an arm around the woman's shoulders, making it evident that they were affectionate with each other. He didn't take his eyes off me, though. "You don't need to be so concerned about her, Lauren. Oh, your parents told me that they wanted us to head home this weekend."He stood in my way, looking arrogant. "It's too bad Lauren and I are going to an exhibition this weekend. I won't be heading back with you."Lauren smiled at me, seemingly apologetic. "I'm sorry to be eating into the time Evan should be spending with you, Giselle. You wouldn't mind, would you?"I frowned and stepped back, putti
I saw anger and savagery in Evan's face, which confused me. I glanced at Nathan, but he didn't look too pleased, either. He looked at Evan icily."How dare you, Nathan!" Evan snarled.I sensed the tension in the air and moved to stand in front of Nathan. "Did you need something from my boyfriend?"Evan's expression twisted when he heard that. Meanwhile, Nathan caressed my head and said, "I have something to discuss with him. Wait here for me, okay?"Then, he pushed Evan out of the ward and shut the door behind him. I could only vaguely hear their argument through the door. The volume fluctuated, so I didn't hear everything."Have you lost your mind, Nathan? Have you forgotten that Giselle is…""You're the one who said you were okay with it, aren't you?""That's how it is, huh? Fine, then. I'll give her to you. I can't wait to see what she'll think of you when she regains her memory, though!"I wondered what this conversation meant when I heard a groan outside the door. Nathan a
Just then, the man noticed my eyes were open. He cried, "Doctor, she's awake!"I stared at him, unable to process anything due to my throbbing head. "Who are you?"The man's expression went from agitation to surprise. Then, a hint of something odd flitted in his eyes. "I'm Evan Quill."I thought I saw a trace of concern in his expression, but it was gone in the next second. He smiled awkwardly and backed up, pushing the man beside him toward the bed.I looked at him. His expression was slightly cold, but there was no mistaking the worry in his eyes. Evan said, "This is Nathan Lindt, your boyfriend. I'm his dormmate and your neighbor. I accompanied him here to visit you when I heard about your accident."Silence descended upon the ward. I watched as Nathan turned to look at Evan, seemingly angry about something. Evan merely prodded his arm and gave him a look.Nathan clenched a fist before releasing it again. He ignored Evan and crouched by my bedside, asking softly, "How do you f
I was sent flying from my electric scooter when a car rammed into me after ignoring a red light. My ears buzzed from the impact. I touched my head and saw that my hand became covered in blood.I vaguely heard passersby screaming and shouting as they circled me. Then, I passed out. Before losing consciousness, I couldn't stop thinking about the video I'd just received.It had been recorded in a dimly lit karaoke room. A group of college students were gathered there, including my boyfriend, Evan Quill.We'd known each other for ten years, and he'd always been gentle and patient with me. In the video, he was drunk. Lauren Shaw, a senior from his major, sat beside him and gently patted his back. She said, "Don't drink too much, Evan. You need to take better care of yourself."Her gaze was fixed on him, and it was filled with heartache. She leaned close to him in the dimness, but he didn't do anything to stop her.I heard someone ask, "Do you want to call your girlfriend to pick you up
