Ex-girlfriend Asks For Reconciliation

The next morning, Natalya called, asking me to pick her up by car.

I ignored her and hung up the phone directly.

Three days later, my mother called, saying that Natalya was crying at her place and asking me to go there quickly to apologize to Natalya.

I answered briefly, "Got it."

...

Without much explanation, I hung up the phone.

In the past, whenever we had a conflict, Natalya would complain to my mom, saying that I bullied her. My mom would help her.

Back then, no matter how unhappy I was, as long as she did so, coupled with my mom scolding me, I would give in and take the initiative to apologize to her.

But when I apologized, she would look smug, saying, "Do you know you're wrong? Will you dare to do it again next time?"

Afterward, she would give me some petty gifts to dissipate my dissatisfaction.

By doing so, she ended any previous conflicts with me taking the initiative to admit my mistakes.

But this time, I didn't go to my mom's place to bring Natalya back.

In the evening...

Natalya went home by herself. Seeing me watching TV and ignoring her, Natalya took the initiative to apologize for the first time.

She came to me, sat on my lap, and hugged my neck with both hands. Acting like a spoiled child, she said, "Alright, don't be angry. I admit that I was wrong this time, okay? I'll make it up to you tonight!"

I didn't say anything.

Seeing this, she kept teasing me.

If it were in the past, with her being so proactive, I would surrender without hesitation.

But this time, the situation was different.

She went out in the middle of the night in heavy rain to comfort Spencer, her ex, who just gotten divorced.

Whether it were men or women, it was unacceptable for their partners to do such a thing!

Moreover, it was during a period when we were about to get married!

I must make my attitude and position clear to her.

This time, I wouldn't back down!

"By the way, Kendall, do you know what day tomorrow is?" Seeing that I ignored her, Natalya changed the topic and said with a smile, "You wouldn't forget it, right? Tomorrow is our fifth anniversary of dating!"

Of course, I knew what day it was tomorrow.

Whenever came our anniversary, I would prepare everything carefully and celebrate it with her.

But many times, she would complain that I wasn't romantic enough and that I wasn't as romantic as her ex.

At that time, feeling a sense of loss, I thought that she shouldn't compare me to her ex.

But I would reflect on myself. Given that I only did some stereotypical things, I indeed wasn't romantic enough.

Every time, I tried my best to change myself, learn from the lessons, and aspire to do my best.

But in the end, what I got was her going to comfort her divorced ex-boyfriend late at night in heavy rain. It was right before we got married.
