Seven years into living in the world of a romance novel with my best friend, we both failed to win over our husbands. Now, the system wanted to erase us and send us back to reality. My blind best friend stood on the rooftop with a bright smile on her face. "Carly, I'm going home." With that, she jumped from the top of the building. Hot blood splattered across her husband's face, the same man who had just been accusing her of threatening to kill herself. His eyes went blank with shock. As for me, I turned to look at my own husband. He was gently holding his true love in his arms, letting her bury her face in his chest, too afraid that the bloody scene might scare her. I swallowed the bile rising in my throat and forced a smile. "Darling, I'm going home, too," I said. As a terminal cancer patient, I lay on the operating table. My husband was the one holding the scalpel, panic and despair written all over his face. "Carly, how could it be you?" What would push him to the edge was that the system would erase me during surgery, as we agreed. It was my final farewell. I was going to leave the one who betrayed me with no peace forever.
