The Concert That Ended Us

Synopsis

The second Emily White, my fiancé Alex Carter's childhood best friend, walked into the engagement ceremony in her white dress, I knew she was nothing but trouble. She sauntered over to me with a sickeningly sweet smile and a cloying tone. "Hey, Julia. Look at your dress. I thought the waist was way too big on me, so Alex told me, 'Give it to Julia.' Wow, it fits perfectly." Her words sounded casual, yet they cut deep, sharp and venomous. I left the engagement party the second it ended, packing my bags and walking out without a single backward glance. I couldn't stand to stay there one second longer. Later, Alex apologized softly and spent three whole months trying to win me back. To make up for hurting me, he even scored tickets to my favorite singer Jason Lane's concert and planned a pre-wedding trip for us. One minute before the train pulled in, he suddenly sent me a message: [Guess what surprise I've got for you? Get it right, and you'll get a reward.] I was all excited, firing off guess after guess. But when the crowd at the exit finally cleared, my smile froze on my face. There was Alex, standing side by side with Emily. Turned out, his so-called surprise was a carefully planned trio trip.
