The Moonlight Fades, Love Never Comes Back

Emily didn’t like breakfast, was very picky and had a bad stomach.

I took great effort to learn all kinds of nutritious meals and cooked them to her taste, which helped her develop a habit of eating regularly. But she seemed to take my efforts for granted. She would never sweetly praise me for my attentiveness and gentleness again and would only blame and complain when I was negligent.

Emily seemed to remember that she had left me behind last night and a trace of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

"Forget it, just don't forget it next time." After saying that, she walked away on her own, not noticing my emotions at all.

But I didn't feel hurt in my heart, as if I had gotten used to it.

The busy work allowed me to forget Emily for a short time. After get off work, it was still early, so I came to the swimming pool I often go to by myself, wanting to exercise and relax.

Unexpectedly, I met an acquaintance here.

In the swimming pool, Emily was wearing a purple swimsuit, with fair skin and a seductive figure. She was leaning against Louis beside her, her eyes smiling and full of love. After the two separated, they chased and played in the swimming pool again and Emily's face was full of shy smiles.

I thought I would be very angry, but I was calm. I just made a quick decision.

I turned and walked towards the dressing room, not wanting to stay here any longer.

Louis spotted me with his sharp eyes and shouted loudly.

"Jeremy! You are here to swim too!"

I had no choice but to turn my head and look at them.

Emily and Louis had already come ashore, with water dripping from their bodies. They stood together, like a perfect couple. Louis handed Emily a towel to wipe her hair while smiling and greeting me.

Emily frowned and stared at me, with deep suspicion in her eyes. "Jeremy! Why are you here?"

I smiled bitterly and spoke. "You got me a card here and you gave me time to come to the gym more."

Emily smiled awkwardly.

"It just so happens that Little Emily and I have finished swimming, shall we go back together?" Louis naturally put his arm around Emily's shoulders and smiled proudly at me.

He emphasized "Little Emily" to show their intimacy. But Emily did not move his arm.

I looked away and nodded gently. Perhaps, my departure was a good thing for both of us.

When we arrived at the parking lot, Louis took the lead in sitting in the driver seat and I was slightly stunned.

Seeing me in a daze, Louis turned his head and asked, "Jeremy, I'm sorry, I'm used to sitting here! Do you want to switch?"

Emily looked at me impatiently, "Get in the car! Do you care about such a small thing?"

I opened the door and sat in the back seat.

On the way, Emily and Louis chatted enthusiastically and I just kept silent.

My thoughts drifted to a long time ago, when I first fell in love with Emily. At that time, we went camping together with a few college students. After a day of playing, everyone was very tired. When we came back, it was late and Emily naturally sat in the driver's seat and drove us back.

I sat in the passenger seat, watching her beautiful profile flickering in the night. Her focused expression was very attractive and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, with a kind of calm indifference. My heart also went up and down.

That was the beginning of my heartbeat.
