My Ex's Brother Swept Me Off My Feet

"In the seventh year of loving Aiden Blackwood, I suddenly let go of my obsession. During our last breakup, he said, "Don't be so blindly devoted to one person. It's kind of scary." "While you're still young, try dating more people." I smiled and replied, "Alright, I'll give it a try." After the breakup, Aiden's life went on as usual. The first month, he never mentioned me. The second month, he started to feel uneasy. The third month, when he stood dejectedly outside my house late at night, I had just calmed Ethan down in bed. The man, no longer angry, deliberately carried me to the floor-to-ceiling window. Kissing me with barely concealed jealousy, he asked, "Look how pitiful he is. Do you want to go down and see him?" 01 When Aiden looked at that young, fresh-faced girl for the third time, I gazed at those eyes that had once captivated my entire adolescence.

I looked at him and smiled slightly, "After today, okay?" Today was a bit special. But Aiden had probably long forgotten. He frowned and reluctantly agreed, "Fine." 02 When I returned from the restroom, Aiden was exchanging SnapChat contacts with that pretty girl. He still remembered he had a girlfriend. Even though his eyes were burning with desire when looking at the girl, He still restrained himself from going further. But for the rest of the time, he was distracted every minute and every second. The SnapChat notification sound went off every few seconds. And he would reply immediately. I remembered the pitiful few chat records between us over the years. Large patches of green interspersed with small blocks of white. The longest time, it took him a month to remember to reply to me. It turns out the difference between liking and not liking is so obvious. Just past midnight, Aiden got up eagerly, "It's late, let's call it a night." I also stood up, "Wait a moment." Our friends were curious and stopped in their tracks. I walked in front of Aiden and looked at him calmly. "Aiden." "I won't wait for you anymore." He looked as if he had heard something very funny. He shrugged and laughe...
