Jake came back home.
He was happy.
He bought me a necklace.
“Anna, you worked hard these days.”
“I bought tickets to leave the country, I want
to take you to relax.”
“You want to go to the beach? I canceled
everything, how long do you want to stay?”
“I want to stay with you.”
He wanted to hug me.
He didn’t want to leave me.
I moved away and handed over a divorce
paper.
“We need to divorce.”
He looked shocked.
<
“Why?”
“Is it because I met your dad without you?”
“Did I do bad?”
“Just tell me, if you don’t divorce, I will
change.”
Jake was scared.
If I didn’t know the truth, I would have been
fooled.
I smiled and asked.
“Jake, you were reborn too, right?”
He widened his eyes, he looked scared.
く
He asked, “Anna, what are you saying?”
“Reborn? What are you talking about?”
I asked, “Don’t act, if you weren’t reborn why
would you fix where I died?”
“You had nightmares after killing me, right?”
He was too perfect.
He let me check his phone.
He acted like he had mistakes but made it all
seem right.
He helped me to make me feel special.
He was too careful to fault.
Г
I didn’t know why.
Then I saw the spot where I died.
I knew then.
Jake was reborn.
That’s why he knew everything.
He was prepared for everything.
He said, “Okay, I was reborn.”
He pulled me and said, “Anna, I was wrong
last time.”
“I didn’t want to kill you, I was nervous and
scared, so I pushed you.”
く
“I regretted it after you died.”
“Then I realized I can’t leave you.”
He would always say, honesty is key.
“God gave us another chance to start over.”
He knelt down and cried.
“Anna, I can give up everything, but I can’t
give up you.”
“Just forgive me.”
“I promise, I’ll be better and only love you.”
He was sincere.
く
I shook my head. “Once a cheater, always a
cheater.”
“Remember, you said if you cheat, let me kill
you.”
“You saved me.”
“Now we are done.”
“Goodbye, let’s divorce.”
I handed over the papers and left.
Jake tried to get back together.
I wouldn’t.
Then he signed and gave me everything.
Г
He then sent me a message.
“Anna, if you change your mind, I will be
here.”
I blocked him.
Then I went to my mother’s grave.
I looked at her picture on the tombstone.
I said, “Mom, why were you so dumb?”
“Cheating hurts, but why did you need to kill
yourself?”
“I didn’t need a man, a woman can make it.”
