Chapter 66 A Message After Four Years.

She didn’t like adding strangers on chat apps.

But her conversations with James had felt almost magical.

Though they’d never met, it was like they were kindred spirits.

So even after realizing she had added the wrong person, she never deleted him.

That is—until over four years ago, when James vanished as if off the face of the earth. No matter how many messages she sent, he never replied.

She figured James just didn’t want to keep in touch. After all, they’d only ever known each other online. Who would genuinely treat an internet friend as a confidant?

Only her. Because there were so few people in her life who treated her kindly, she had truly come to cherish James as a friend.

Still, people have to move forward. Even if she felt a quiet emptiness from losing that friendship, she wouldn’t let herself stay trapped in the past.

Most people had switched to using WhatsApp and uninstalled Instagram.

But maybe because a small part of her still held onto hope, she never deleted Instagram. Even when she got a new phone, it was the first app she reinstalled.

She never imagined that after all these years, James–the friend she’d once considered her closest–would really reach out again.

And what she didn’t expect at all was that the first thing he said… was “I’m sorry.”

To be honest, when she first lost contact with James, she had blamed him.

Because during those three months they kept in touch, they’d called each other best friends–promised they’d be lifelong friends.

But when the Ginger family turned on her–every single one of them–hurting her, isolating her during her most painful and hopeless days, every message she sent him went unanswered.
