Description:
For four years, Dahlia Ashby loved Hayden Cho. She fed him, funded him, and filled his lonely hours - and he never once said no to any of it. He also never said yes.
He called her his little sister. His friend. His confidante. His soulmate. Everything except his girlfriend.
Then the photo arrives: Hayden in a bubble tea shop, holding hands with someone else. And on that girl's profile, wearing the watch Dahlia saved six months to buy him, is a comment that ends everything:
*The girl who gave you this watch isn't going to be mad, is she?*
His reply: *Don't worry about her.*
What follows isn't a breakdown. It's an accounting - of every excuse she made for him, every warm little gesture that cost him nothing, and exactly what she's owed.
A sharp, cathartic story about the day you finally stop waiting.
