Chapter 49

Grace’s POV

I thought she’s coming to where I’m sitting, but then I see her approaching the ferris wheel in the distance. I have no cho but to follow them, as I’m curious as to what stunt Cedie is going to pull next.

I’m not disappointed. Because as soon as we approach the stand, she says, “Two rides, please”

The clerk just gives her two tickets and posts the “FULL” sign. Of course. Antonio comes with her, smiling as though they didn’t just leave anyone behind.

I shouldn’t have come here. I shouldn’t have tried to cushion his feelings.

I head home, and right now I can almost feel Antonio looking for me but I don’t care anymore.

I just pack my bags, making sure there is nothing left behind.

I book a taxi to my parents‘ place, and before I leave, I write him a note that simply says, “It’s over. The engagement off, and I’m breaking up with you.”

By eleven in the evening, Antonio calls, I’m too busy to notice it, so it falls through.

That doesn’t mean he won’t try again. And again.

Sick of hearing the tone, I just turn off my phone and go to bed.

For the first time in what feels like years, I have the best sleep of my life. It’s already noon when I wake up, and for the first time, I wake up to a full meal and no complaints from anyone.

I open my phone, and to my surprise, I get a flood of messages and calls.

I log into my socials, only to see so many messages from

Antonio.

“What do you mean the engagement is off? Why did you not take the keys to the apartment?”

“It’s a birthday. You’re going to have it next year again. What’s the big deal?”

“Are you just playing hard to get? Why are you doing this to
