On our graduation trip, my boyfriend, Ryan, left me stranded at a highway rest stop while I was buying motion sickness pills for my best friend, Emily. He gave her my seat, my room, and even my birthday—then told me not to be dramatic. That was the moment I stopped making excuses. For two years, I had paid Emily's expenses, swallowed every insult, and nearly given up Northbridge University because Ryan insisted she needed me more. So I reclaimed my future, demanded every dollar they owed me, and ended the relationship he thought I would never dare leave. Now I am heading to my dream school while Emily's helpless act falls apart and Ryan begs for another chance. But when he appears at the station asking for one last conversation, will I listen—or board the train without looking back?
