She still remembered that when she first fell in love with Jacob, someone proposed a toast to her at the
party. At the same time, Jacob blocked his way and said, "My wife is not good at drinking. Let me drink
it for her."
That day, Jacob seemed to shine Sara's eyes, making her unable to look away for a long time. Time
was like water, always silent. She always thought that her life would go on peacefully, and occasionally
there would be surprises, but life turned out not be smooth.
He was no longer the hero in her heart. He was so loyal to another woman to protect her from wind and
rain. He was like a soldier riding a horse, who died in the battlefield and did not return, and he even
brought a letter to tell her not to wait.
It was late autumn in November. Although it was not too hot under the influence of the sea, it still made
Sara feel cold. Sitting on the chair, Sara folded her arms around legs and huddled herself up.
Although the hatred in her heart never decreased in the slightest, her love was still increasing. Women
were always so stubborn. It was difficult for a woman to accept another man when she firmly loved him,
so there were so many women who broke up in love and committed suicide. Others always saw
women's hypocrisy, but they couldn't see women's infatuation.
Looking out of the window at the night view of the city, Sara was lost in thought for a long time. She
thought of her experience from childhood to adulthood. Maybe it was just because she didn't care that
her life was in a mess. Sara mocked herself that anything could lead to the desolation of her own
situation.
After adjusting her mood, Sara took out her phone and sent a message to Bess. She had thought of
disappearing completely and having fun, so she had ruthlessly removed all the chatting software. Look,
how easy it was for a person to disappear from the world, even though the Internet was so developed
nowadays.
After setting up the WeChat, Sara logged in and saw the WeChat message from Bess. She felt her
heart suddenly hung in the air and she felt suffocated. In the photo, Jacob was wrapped in gauze all
over his body, and the gauze was also soaked with blood. How seriously Jacob injured?
Sara covered her mouth with her hand to prevent herself from making any sound. If he died, would she
forgive him? But what was the point of forgiving him if he died.
Sara immediately called Bess. It was 6 o'clock BJ time in the morning.
Hearing the loud ringing of the phone next to her, Bess, who was sleepy, took the phone. When she
saw the number, she was shocked and sat up. She hesitated whether she should answer the phone or
not. It seemed that the phone in front of her was from Italy. Was it a crank call or a call from Sara?
At this critical moment, Bess didn't answer the phone. While Sara was a maniac. What happened?
Sara re-phoned, and Bess finally answered the phone.
"Hello, Bess. How is Jacob?" There was anxiety in Sara's voice.
"Sara, where have you been? I finally got in touch with you." Bess was excited when she heard Sara's
voice. She hadn't heard from her for a long time.
"Don't worry about that. Bess, you must answer me honestly. How's Jacob? I was scared by the
pictures. Is he okay? Is he out of danger?" Sara asked a flow of questions.
"He is badly injured. He has been in a surgery for a whole day and hasn't woken up yet. Why don't you
come back and have a look?" Bess was testing her. She knew that Sara didn't have the heart to ignore
him, but she didn't want Sara to go against her will.
To love a person, sometimes one must be encouraged by everyone to be brave. If the people around
her disagreed, there would be two extremes. One was to stop loving, and the other was to ignore all
love. Most people chose not to love each other anymore, that was why so many people chose to break
up because their families' disapproval.
Sometimes, breaking up was not necessarily because they didn't love each other. Love was illusory. It
was really because of the uncertainty of love that there were so many quarrels and suspicions.
"I will come back. But I'm not sure what he will do to me. No matter what the result is this time, I just
want to see him once. He's always so unclear and entangled. Let's make an end of it. Even we will be
strangers to each other in the future. " Sara said slowly. She still had a little sense. She knew that love
was a matter of two people. No matter how hard a person tried, she would only hurt herself in the end,
and there could be no other person.
"Sara, to be honest, I have to tell you this because you are my good friend. I tell you, I don't mean to
encourage you to come back, nor do I mean to prevent you from coming back. I just want to tell you the
truth objectively. You have the final say all the time. I just don't want you to blame me for not telling you
in the future. I just hope that you can live a good and happy life. To be honest, Jacob has hurt you so
much. I hate him very much. But for your happiness, I hope you can follow your heart. Even if you will
regret in the end, you have tried your best, thus you can have a clear conscience. You'll understand
that you did nothing wrong. Do you understand? " Bess had never had any prejudice against this
relationship. Contractual marriage is also legal marriage. They had the marriage certificate issued by
the Civil Affairs Bureau. Since it's a marriage, why should she give it so much prejudice?
"Thank you, Bess. I see. I'll be back tomorrow. It's time to make a clean break. No matter what the
result is, I thank you for being with me all the time." Sara's voice was a little hoarse. She felt lucky that
she had done something good in her previous life and met such a good friend as Bess.
"Well, honey, go to sleep. Don't think too much. Let's talk about it when you come back. I'll pick you up
at the airport. I'm here with you. Don't worry too much." Bess comforted Sara.
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Sara's face was calm. She felt warm in her heart. She felt she
must have been blessed for several generations. Although her love was in a mess, but friendship was
more solid than love.
Lying on the bed, Sara smelled the faint fragrance of lavender from the pillow and fell asleep
unconsciously. Maybe Bess's words worked, or maybe she was really sleepy too late. She didn't have
a dream all night and had a good sleep.
In the morning, Sara opened her eyes. Her big watery eyes flashed with a strange light. She was finally
going to return. She had booked a ticket. After getting up and tidying up, she finally decided to have
breakfast in the hotel on the last morning.
After having breakfast in a hurry, Sara found that the breakfast offered by the hotel was not as bad as
she thought. It should be cooked by a good chef. However, since she was about to return, she was not
in the mood to care about it.
Sitting on the plane, Sara looked out of the window from time to time. Many people were afraid of
taking the plane, because if the plane had an accident, there was almost no chance of survival. It was a
high-risk journey.
Outside the window, there were white clouds surrounding. With her eyes wide open, Sara felt like she
was in a fairyland and could hardly see the ground. People with acrophobia might be scared to death.
But she felt at ease. Once she made a decision, she would become brave and decisive.
Life was not a matter of course, but of willingness. Sara looked around and found that almost half of the
people around her were Chinese. Some of them were smiling, while some were expressionless. Life
was always like this. Half was happiness and half was sadness, but the happy days were always short,
and the sad days were difficult. Objectively, the speed of the time made you feel happy or sad remain
the same. Because of the significance given by people, everything was different.
