Chapter 26
Chupter 25
My interactions with Selena were quite simple. Even though we were stuck in this small hospital room, unable to leave oc contact anyone because we had no phones, the hospital facilities were decent enough, and we had access to the internet on the television.
After chatting for two or three hours, she suggested watching a movie.
After a few minutes of browsing, we settled on the film “Flipped“.
As I watched the movie, I couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. This was the first movie we had ever watched together, and even though it was released before I was born, it still moved. me deeply.
Icarly remembered my reaction the first time I saw it–Selena reminded me of the female lead, chasing after the person she liked with such bravery and passion. She truly was a good girl
Holding the remote, Selena looked at the mine cover and, snuggling up to my arm, asked softly, “Hud, do you remember that “ripped” was the first movie we watched together back then?
1 simply nodded, not wanting to say much. The plot stil resonated with me, but watching it years later felt completely different.
The female lead knew when to cut her losses, even when she liked the male lead. She could ignore his advances when she suspected his character was flawed. But what about me? Should I do the same when I learned about Selena’s darker side?
Sometimes, I found myself wishing that her relationship with zion was merely a misunderstanding
As I watched the male lead’s grandfather share wisdom with him on screen, Treflected on the different types of people in the world. Some are shallow, some were quiet, some were superficial, while others had inner depth.
Everyonentually met someone who shone like a rainbow, making everything else feel trial in comparison.
These thoughts filled my mind as I saw the words on the screen.
Suddenly, Sylvia’s face came to mind. When I was feeling down, she was the one beside me, comforting me.
When I first started working and fand difficulties, Selena rarely offered help. She was already a high–ranking executhie, having become the president of the company at a young age. She secured significant projects with the help of friends and family and thrived.
She had no understanding of the festions of being undermined by superiors or the anger of being framed by colleagues. She would often casually say, “If it gets too hard, just quit Tean support you”
As a man, how could rely on a mom? I was determined to work hard and build my own career. I started putting in long hours, hustling for business, and diving with all sorts of people. I was often inway from home for ten days too weeks at a time. She complained, but she respected mychoices.
Eventually, I climbed the ranks from employee to team leader, then supervisor, and finally to president. Though it was exhausting, it was worth it
Yet, looking at her in my arms, 1 twinge of doubt, en guit
Had my absence left her feeling lonely and cold otherwise, why would she fall for her assistant?
After all, compared to me, Zion had been with her much longer wasn’t surprising that feelings could develop over time. But that couldn’t justify her infidelity. That was simply unethical
