Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother

Chapter 22

We got on well because of how similar our interests were, and it was really easy to be around Colin.

Sometimes, when I managed to squeeze out some time, I would look at my Instagram stories to try and build up my resolve.

Felix was now entirely different from how cold and impassive he had been in the past. He posted about how happy his life was almost daily.

If Felix and Lilac weren’t having a drink together, they would be holding hands on a date. In any case, all these sickly–sweet images of their love life made me feel like I was choking on something.

I thought that Colin treating me to pork ribs would make me feel better, but Colin’s return kept getting delayed. I had no choice but to go and get pork ribs twice with my roommate instead.

When summer break started, Felix didn’t contact me, and I didn’t disturb him. Once more, I picked up my

suitcase and started the journey home.

I felt like I had become accustomed to life without him. I was learning to grow up alone.

The plane took off in the night, and by the time I reached home, it was around 6:00 am. I didn’t even have time to talk to my parents. I just showered and then fell on my bed to catch up on sleep.
