Chapter 41

The light drizzle suddenly turned into a torrential d

a torrential downpour. Leouldn't tell if it was my tears or the rain streaming down my cheeks, but I could taste the saltiness in the air. Ethan sped away, leaving me there on the cold, wet ground. It felt as though the darkness and the cold were seeping into my very soul, trapping me in an inescapable prison.

The nightmare was so vivid. It felt like I was being tomto pieces, When I jolted awake, it was already morning, I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, my clothes drenched in

cold sweat

Fortunately, that was behind me. I would never let anyone toss me aside so easily again.

St. Nicholas University was vast enough that if we didn't actively seek each other out, we might never cross paths again. Yet, it could also feel small enough that, if fate willed you would keep running into each other

Word got around that their relationship was blossoming, and I couldn't help but feel like an intruder. Even though I never showed up in front of them, I was always on their lips. My classes were manageable at the beginning of the semester, but keep running into them by chance, so I made a conscious effort to avoid anything that had to do with them. Theard Liam was in the student council, so I decided against running for it. Then, I learned that Ethan had joined an interest group, so I found an excuse to stay out of that as well.

"You need to get a move on! The deadline is tomorrow at noon. You should go sign up in the moming"

Biting my lip, I hesitated, clutching the registration form tightly in my hands. After a moment, I nodded, a smile spreading across my face. "Alright. I'll join the event planning club

After all, I couldn't graduate without enough credits.

The next morning, I slipped into acasual outfit and palled my hair back into a high ponytail. The young woman staring back at me from the mirror was full of life.

Trealised that having a purpose really made ne come alive. Instead of spending my life revolving around him and our house until I wore myself down into a shadow of who I was, I'd rather channel all my passion into thing my youth to the fullest

Wearing a pair of sneakers, I walked into the activity room with my registration form in hand. The club president was an upperclassman with thick-framed glasses, and she seemed very kind and gentle. Dressed in a soft pink outfit, she looked cute and a little quirky, tar from di

"Wiley, welcome to the team! We're excited to have you on board and can't wait to see what you bring to the table as we build something truly special together!"
