goodbye bittersweet

After three years of secretly dating my boyfriend, I finally called my mom. "Mom, I've decided—I'm coming home to run the family business." She practically squealed through the phone. "That's such good news! But... what about your boyfriend?" I stood at the door, took a breath, and said, "Don't worry. In ten days, he's history."

A business trip took an unexpected turn when our plane ran into disaster. While everyone else was penning their last words, I, an orphan with nothing to lose, decided to have a little fun with my miserly boss. “Boss, let’s keep this short—I like you.” “I really, really like you.” “Boss, this is a final goodbye.” Just when all hope seemed lost, the captain pulled off a miracle with his years of experience, saving us from the brink of catastrophe. By the time we landed safely, I was still in a daze until I saw my boss, eyes bloodshot, storming toward me, flanked by a wall of black-suited bodyguards.

I'd always thought that I had found the perfect husband—that is, until I discovered that he had a girlfriend who looks almost identical to me. It turns out she can't have children. That's why he married me—he wanted me to have a child that looked like them. The day the child is born is the day our marriage ends. So, I decide to leave. However, he comes knocking on my door when I've already started over. "I've finally understood that you're the one I love. Come home with me." It's too bad I don't love him anymore.
