Synopsis

I had never met a boy like him before. His features were delicate, and his pale complexion seemed almost unreal. His long, curled lashes lowered over deep eyes that looked as if they held countless stories. Anyone who saw him couldn’t help taking a second look.

He was a transfer student. From the day he stepped into our classroom, the girls went wild, and even the boys were scrambling to be his friend.

The nightmare began the day I met him.

On graduation day, I clenched my fists, worked up my nerve, and marched over to him, glaring furiously.

He noticed me and slowly turned around. He propped one leg on the chair in front of him, pressed his lips together, then looked up and studied me.

It was the first time I had ever looked him straight in the eye. My voice trembled as I spoke.

“I wish we’d never met. I’ll never forgive you! If you ever run into me again, pretend I’m a stranger.”

He smiled faintly and parted his lips. “But I’m not done playing yet.”

My body trembled uncontrollably.

“What did I ever do to offend you? I’ll change, all right?”

“Once I’m in a good mood, I’ll think about whether to tell you.”

He lowered his leg, turned around, and lounged over his desk.

I murmured, “I never want to see you again, even if I die.”

Later, it seemed my wish had come true, but I still couldn’t escape the misery of my family. I prayed that someone would come and pull me out of the abyss.

He appeared like a savior. I thought I could finally have a home of my own, like everyone else. But it was all a lie. I couldn’t keep deceiving myself. How could I live every day with a devil? His eyes reddened as he reached out, tentatively trying to touch me. I gave a helpless, bitter smile.

“Will you only let me go if I die?”

His expression dimmed as he looked into the distance.

“Shishi, can’t we start over...?”

Looking for Tragedies, but Not the Idiotic Kind. Keep the Characters’ Values Straight

I don't want angst for the sake of angst. I like stories with sound values that are relatively realistic. Historical or modern settings are both fine, something like He Is in Yunnan and One and Only. My eyes are already swollen from crying...
