We were about to leave the country again,
and although I had already told them about
winning the award, I wanted to say goodbye
to them in person one more time.
“Mom and Dad, see, I’m doing well.”
I wiped the tombstone and didn’t leave the
mountain until evening.
At the foot of the mountain, I encountered
two unexpected people.
Jason and Alex.

their former glory.
They staggered to their feet when they saw
me, having been there for who knows how
long.
Jason looked directly at me. “Emily! We came
to apologize to your parents!”
I frowned, and they fumbled for words.
“We’ve always regretted how we treated you. We searched everywhere, asking countless people, before we finally found this place. We just wanted to apologize…”
“I’m afraid you’ll dirty my parents‘ resting
place.”
They froze.
I sighed and boarded the waiting car with
David, heading straight for the airport.
Their car followed closely behind.
“So innovative, so beautiful! I thought her
wedding with David was the peak of her
designs!”
“I’d regret it for the rest of my life if I missed
this wedding!”
Passersby exclaimed, holding their phones.
Immense pain crossed Jason and Alex’s
faces.

Passersby exclaimed, holding their phones.
Immense pain crossed Jason and Alex’s
faces.
Held back by bodyguards, they could only
watch from afar.
Our childhood friendship ended there.
I didn’t look back, boarding the plane with
David.
My future remained vast and exciting.
