Chapter 5%
Things that were too easy to get were always not cherished. For example, I was back then. For example, Laura now. What you couldn’t get was always in turmoil.
“Eileen, I’m sorry, I’m late.”
“I… I didn’t know she had this thought. I took her home because of our past relationship.” Kendrick kept explaining to me.”
When Kendrick sat in front of me with great expectation, I began to realize that I had forgotten more and more things.
He said that today was his birthday and I used to make a cake for him by myself.§
I didn’t remember; I didn’t remember his birthday and I didn’t remember making a cake on his birthday.
“I forgot.” Kendrick looked at me in disbelief, trying to see something from my face, but there was only confusion and doubt on my face.
He finally believed that I really forgot and his face was full of disappointment.
“How could it be? Eileen, how could you forget my birthday…”
Yes, how could it be? How could it not be?
“I don’t even remember your birthday, why don’t you agree to a divorce?” Divorce, I remembered.
“Don’t even think about it! I won’t agree to a divorce! Even if we die, we have to be buried together!” I looked at Kendrick in surprise, thinking, why didn’t I realize that Kendrick had the potential to be a lunatic before?}]
Since I started to forget, I often sat in front of the window in a daze, not looking forward to Kendrick coming home so much. Being alone seemed to be what I liked most.
When Kendrick came back, he brought me the crayfish I loved to eat.
He focused on helping me peel the shrimps and his beautiful hands were now all red oil. He didn’t peel them for me before, he always peeled them for himself and gave me a few by the way. Now, I could enjoy his service like this.
Soon, the shrimps in my bowl piled up like a small mountain. Kendrick looked at me expectantly, as if he wanted to get my praise.}
“Thank you.“”
I said thank you and his smile froze on his face, but soon, he smiled again. “Eileen, my annual leave has been approved. You said last time that you wanted to see the aurora, right? I’ll take you there.”
It turned out that he knew everything, remembered everything and could do everything, but he just didn’t want to before.
“But I don’t want to now.“>
“Eileen, why… can’t you give me a chance?”
“I gave you many chances, but you didn’t want them.“}
“Do you have to divorce?“>
“Yes.”
“Impossible! I said that we should be buried together even if we die!” After this argument, he locked me up.§
He took my mobile phone and my keys and locked the door every day when he went out. He tried to change my mind in this way.”
I once tried to lock the door and simply didn’t let him go home, but he directly asked someone to tear down the door.
After many unsuccessful attempts, I told him that I would not divorce. I finally got my freedom. If I had known that Kendrick was such a thing… I would have regretted it.”
“Eileen, where are you? Why aren’t you at home?“}
Home? Was I not at home?}
“I am at home, but I don’t know why. There are other people’s things at home, not mine.”
506, Building 3, Yorkwing Garden, yes, why did it look a little strange? Whose things were these?
“Eileen? What are you doing here?” A somewhat sharp voice came from the door.!]
That person… looks familiar, as if… Oh, it was Laura.
Yes, I was already married and I was getting divorced again, all because of Laura – my husband’s first love. Did Kendrick let her live here?
“Why are you in my house?” I asked the question in my heart.”
Laura looked at me like a fool. “What do you want to do? Didn’t you tell Kendrick to let me live here? What, do you regret it? Do you want to drive me away?“”
Ah? I proposed it?”
“Sorry, I forgot.”
Laura was instantly angered by my indifferent attitude. “Eileen! I have given in again and again! What else do you want?“}
“I remember, I want a divorce, but Kendrick doesn’t agree.”
Laura rushed up and pushed me and I hit the cabinet. I grimaced in pain and before I could react, Laura rushed up.
Fight? Come on. There were only a few things that women did when they fight – pulling hair and scratching faces. But I was a little stronger and Laura was pinned to the ground by me.”
12.15 PM
“Eileen! Are you here to show off? You won the show and now you want to see me unhappy, right? Yes, as you can see, I’m living a very embarrassing life now. I went abroad without caring about everything and now I’m back with nothing and a lot of debts! They urge me to pay back the money every day! Are you satisfied seeing me like this?“N
Ah? How did she reveal all her ugly deeds?}
“Are you okay… I don’t know about these things about you… Are you crazy?” Laura wanted to struggle, but I held her down tightly and she couldn’t move. Thinking of the embarrassment and harm she had brought to me, I took the opportunity to slap her a few times.
“Ahhhhh, Eileen, I’ll kill you!” Laura started to struggle like crazy and I just felt a sharp pain in the back of my head. She found an ashtray from somewhere and there was some blood on the ashtray. When I fell, I saw Kendrick rushing over.
“Eileen… Eileen.“}
“Don’t shake me, I’m just a little dizzy, not dead.”
Kendrick put me aside and turned to stare at Laura, who looked even more embarrassed than me. “Laura! Didn’t I tell you not to touch
Eileen?!
“No… It’s none of my business! She came here on her own! She came to show off to me, to show off that you refused to divorce…” Laura cried as she spoke. At this time, she cried without any sense of brokenness, only funny.
“Laura, you don’t have to live here anymore, get out! Get out!” I thought Kendrick was a gentleman for not taking action. I saw that he was so angry that his hands were clenched and the veins on his neck were bulging.
“Eileen, I’ll take you to the hospital.” Kendrick carefully picked me up, his tone full of heartache. These… originally belonged to Laura, when did they start… to change? I couldn’t remember.
“Laura, don’t let me see you again, otherwise, I don’t know what I will do.” After saying that, he ignored Laura, who was still crying, hugged me and walked away.
“Kendrick, she is Laura.” She was the first love you had been thinking about.}
“What’s wrong?”
“Isn’t she the one you have been thinking about?”
“Eileen! You are the one I have been thinking about. She is just a thing of the past to me. I let her live there just because I feel sorry for her.”
But, didn’t you break my heart for her some time ago?
In the end, I didn’t ask this question. I had forgotten too many things. The system told me that I would forget, but it didn’t tell me that this was how to forget.”
