My Best Friend Left Me After 29
She Signed The Paper
Pierce's POV
She signed the divorce papers. She signed it without thinking twice. In front of
1. me.
A bitter smile spilled as I downed another glass of brandy.
I should be happy about that when I was the one who asked for the divorce. But...but my heart felt so heavy ever since Kelly signed the papers.
Kelly and I had been friends for over 10 years. The day she transferred to my high school, I accidentally bumped into her by the lake. She looked like a frightened kitten, carefully hiding her true self behind that thick antique eyeglasses. That was interesting.
I didn't realize that nerdy transfer girl in everyone's eyes would be the daughter of my mother's best friend. With that, we grew to be friends. Best friends.
Kelly changed a lot after graduation. When I came back from the first vacation alone with Lexi, I was surprised to find that my best friend was far different. Taking off her heavy glasses and changing out of her baggy hoodies, she. learned how to dress up. She was always a More and more suitors gathered around her. I could see how much she was troubled, so as her best friend, I naturally became that escort. Although it caused some rumors, I knew we were only best friends. I already had Lexi.
No one knew why Kelly never had a boyfriend. I once wanted to ask about it but gave up, as I had a feeling that she would leave me once I learned the answer. I never wanted to lose her. She was my best friend.
Everything went well but after the countless argument with Lexi about our future life, we fell into a long cold war. And when I was ready to surrender, Lexi suddenly went to another city after sending me a breakup text. I flew all night to chase her, only to find her sleeping with fell into darkness and alcohol became my best partner. Just when I thought I was about to rot in my darkened room, a figure appeared in the doorway. bringing me the only light. It was Kelly.
She Lugned The Paper
I broke down with tears in the arms of my best friend. And Kelly suspended her studies abroad to be by my side. Without her, I could never overcome that hardest time. I'd been always grateful for that. I swore to cherish her for my whole life.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
But I never expected that Grams would wish us to get married. I agreed to give it a shot. It's better than marrying her than marrying another woman my family chose for me. My family was a fan of arranged marriage. And since they also treated Kelly as family, I felt like if I re want to protect her...
After three years of happy peaceful marriage, I started to consider having a child with Kelly. She always loved kids, I knew. However, it was at that time, that I met Lexi again on my business trip.
My heart was in turmoil when the woman I once loved so deeply cried in my arms. Lexi everything that happened to her. Her fate wasn't good to her and she wants me back. I thought my feelings for her disappeared, but as soon as she came back, everything came back to Fck!
It's Kelly, my best friend over Lexi, my first love. I don't know what to do. God. knows how much I dreamed of having Lexi because she's my first love but... losing Kelly should not be a trade to get my first love.
"I've been watching you. Do you need company, hottie?"
I gritted my teeth and glared at the woman who tried to approach me. Her smile immediately faded and she walked away.
I ordered another glass of liquor and drank it straight. I balled my fists and buried my face on the counter. Do I really have to choose? I love them both. I don't wanna lose them both.

My phone buzzed again and I didn't have to check to know it had to be Mom again. Dad and Mom were super annoyed after knowing Kelly
and I would divorce. Every time they called, they would inevitably scold me severely, blaming me for breaking Kelly's heart. I knew they were telling the truth. I didn't

But affer watching her sign the divorce papers, I felt like I became the most miserable one. I screwed everything up.
I feel like I'm losing Kelly now just because of that damn divorce paper. Can it all sta
