Solomon Saunders and I were the epitome of the perfect couple in Solviora, admired by all. I had jumped from a building for him, donated a kidney for him, and by the time I was nineteen, I had already given him my virginity. He fought other men for me, and when the earthquake hit, he threw himself on top of me, shielding me without a second thought. But when my mother was on her deathbed, I asked Solomon to marry me, to fulfill her final wish. He smiled and agreed, but on our wedding day, he walked in, hand in hand with my stepsister, Luciana Hensley. Solomon said, "Being the perfect couple was just a show for everyone. You didn't take it seriously, did you? I like clean things. Luciana is different from you. She's the one I should marry and pamper." As old photos of us, filled with the echoes of our once passionate flirtations, were projected on the big screen, I realized that all these years, I had been nothing more than a game to him. After my mother passed away, I deleted everything related to Solomon and left Solviora alone. We didn't meet again until five years later. This time, in front of all our old friends, he grabbed Luciana's hand with defiant arrogance and looked at me, saying, "I thought you were too proud to face me, and you'd keep running away. But as soon as you heard I was looking for someone to marry, you came rushing back, didn't you?" I only smiled, silently keeping the photo of my family of three on my phone. What he didn't know was that I had already been married long ago.
