Please My Darling , Marry Me Again Chapter 5 : Old Friends 1/4 Still grumbling , I was taken by Maddie to get treatment .
This hospital was in my hometown , where I inevitably ran into an old acquaintance .
Abby ? I heard a voice , and when I looked around , it was my best friend from high school , Joyce ? When old friends meet , theres always a lot of catching up to do .
With Maddies approval , I was able to go out for a rare little while .
I chose hotpot .
Are you doing well ? Joyce asked cautiously .
I smiled and said , Its alright .
I have a lot of money , but not a lot of life left .
Her hand shook as she was picking vegetables and she stared at me in shock .
Only when I focused on putting a piece of meat into my mouth did I realize that she was crying big , fat tears .
Hey , what happened to you? I quickly took out two pieces of paper for her to wipe her tears , a bit flustered .
Chapter 5 : Old Friends What illness? 2/4 I waved my hand , An illness that cant be cured , its nothing , it wont kill you in a short time .
I looked out the window and said , I want to die on a sunny day , winter is still too cold .
Are you still with Peter? When Peter was mentioned , her eyes dimmed a bit , and she said softly , Mm .
I didnt try to give her any advice , not everyone needs to understand , when youre alive , just be happy .
Can I ask you to do me a favor ? I asked her as we left the house .
What is it ? Dont tell anyone that you met me , if you have the , you can come visit me more often .
Maddie , the nurse , lectured me , Youre starting chemotherapy now and itll make your hair fall out , so its better if we cut it off .
I pondered and asked , Cant I just skip it ? Maddie got mad , so I laughed and pacified her , Alright , alright , Ill consider it , consider it ! Chapter 5 : Old Friends .
She was about to say more when a tall figure walked in and headed straight towards me .
Who are you looking for ? 3/4 He disregarded her and just stared at me with a cold face , as if he was looking for some conspiracy in my face .
Hes looking for me .
Maddie , let go of my hair and go to work .
She glanced at the man and then at me , and said in a low voice , Just call me if you need anything .
I nodded and sent her away .
Turning to Tristan , I asked him , Dont you need to go back for New Years with Katie? Valentines Day , Christmas , New Years , Katie always had all sorts of excuses to ask Tristan to spend time with her , and for a while I even began to loathe all the holidays , making me feel even more …lonely and helpless .
But then I got used to it , and thought it was okay to spend it alone , until he came to pick on me again .
What kind of trick are you pulling now ? My heart tightened up ; even though I was used to the sharp knife he spat out at me , it still hurt when it ripped open the wound .
Chapter 5 : Old Friends 4/4 I sighed and said , Yes , this is my new method of tricking you .

Dont get fooled , just leave quickly .
Come with me , he said , reaching out to grab me , and I was too late to react , walking a few steps with him .
I … ugh , let me go ! I said more firmly , pushing away his hand .
What the hell are you doing here ? Were divorced , mind your own business .
He let go of my hand and backed away two steps , Dont even think of using the excuse of being sick to take more money from me .
You know were already divorced ! I felt my heart stop beating , and my body felt numb .
I didnt even want to say a word to him , so I just pushed him away and said , Go , go quickly , take your shitty money and find your little girlfriend and disappear from my sight ! The last sentence I almost shouted out .
Tristan bit his teeth , adjusted his collar , and walked out , slamming the door behind him .
