Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right

Demi had taken the video from the highest point. Through it, I saw the amusement park all lit up. It didn’t look too bad, but the base color of the lights wa

Originally, the lights were supposed to be a gradient of blue, like the ocean at night turning into dawn. Now, it was just a solid blue– a deep, heavy blue.

Sure, the color was rich, but it lacked soul.

“Okay, I’ll come back,” I agreed this time without hesitation.

After ending the call, I booked a flight. Not long after, Demi sent me some detailed aerial footage, and it was clear the problems were serious.

*Miss me? You should be thinking about Hayden. He’s such a good guy, and you drove him away,” Macy said, breaking my moment of sentimentality.

‘Did Hayden leave because I rejected him? Because don’t like him that way?”

Before I could say anything. Macy patted my hand. “Keira, Hayden is a good guy. Think it over.”

“Alright,” I agreed.
