even live totally dependent on their own. You said I should hire a bodyguard myself if I was scared. You said you were busy with your business.”
His pupils quivered at my words.
And I continued, “Now, I’m also busy with my business, so please leave and don’t bother me again.”
I walked to the roadside and hailed a taxi.
Just as I opened the door and got in, he also slipped in.
“I admit I wasn’t a good boyfriend before. Can I have a chance to make up for it? I don’t want us to break up just because of some misunderstandings.”
I didn’t want to waste any more time with him, so I simply closed my eyes to rest. Meanwhile, his phone kept ringing on the way.
Impatiently, I said angrily, “Can you take care of your own
business? Don’t appear in front of me anymore. We are totally over, so what’s the point of you doing this? The woman you love is waiting for you at home, not here!”
As I finished speaking, we also just arrived at the company’s building. I immediately got out and closed the door.
I left him no opportunity to speak.

His team leader hesitated for a while before explaining, “Antonio is taking his annual leave, so there’s nothing I can do.” I hung up the phone in annoyance.
For the following week, he was like a ghost, always appearing around me.
I had to say, habits were a terrible thing. It took me only a few days to go from angry to indifferent. On the seventh night, the landlord of my apartment called me.
I was told that some residents upstairs had been complaining about Antonio’s disturbance. As they had often seen him at my door, they wanted to confirm if he was my friend.
I was puzzled and asked the landlord how Antonio had been disturbing the others. Then I was told that Antonio had set up a tent downstairs, with lights on all night.
Whenever someone entered the building, he would rush up and ask for their apartment number to confirm if they were a resident there. Quite a few people in the apartment building ended their leases early because of this.
I hurriedly got up from the sofa and ran to the balcony.
As I had been told, I saw a glaring light in a small tent downstairs. I immediately unblocked his number and called to question him for a long while.
He finally said, “I’m worried that it’s not safe for you to live here alone.

“I came over too suddenly and haven’t found a place to rent in this building yet. Therefore, I can only rough it downstairs. Oh, I have some good news to tell you. I’ve applied and managed to secure a spot in my department’s overseas training!”
He sounded very excited, just like when I dreamed about our future when we were in love.
However, I remained indifferent upon hearing all that. After simply saying “Good for you“, I hung up directly. That night, I suffered from insomnia.
In the early morning, a heavy rain hit, and I couldn’t help but feel a bit worried.
went to the balcony to look down, but in the dim light, I couldn’t see where he was. Annoyed, I climbed into bed, covered my ears, and forced myself to rest.
The next day when I went to work, the rain had stopped, and the sky was as dark as if the end of the world was coming. The spot where Antonio usually waited for me was empty.
