My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Jamarion left calmly after reaching an oral agreement with Alana while Alana slowly realized what a mad decision she just made as she took a shower before going to bed.

She regretted it.

So she took her phone immediately after coming out of the bathroom, wanting to tell Jamarion about her regret, but she gave up the second she wanted to call.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Because she knew he would definitely disagree as he was a bigot to some extent.

She turned to Christina and Bella because they had a lot in common though they were two years younger than her.

“Oh my God, you are insane.” Christina sent a voice message in astonishment in their chatting group after learning about Alana’s bet with Jamarion.

“But that’s not too bad; you have four years, after all.” Christina continued.

“But I don’t expect that he would offer to give you four years. I thought he would push you hard.”

“That’s the most confusing thing, which also put me under pressure.”

“It feels like he won’t give up after all this wait considering how calm he is now.”

Alana began to realize how canny and sophisticated he was at his age.

Christina showed admiration, “That’s cool.”

“I like his trick, which proves how much he loves you.”

Alana was speechless.

Undoubtedly, Christina believed in love the most among the three girls. To quote Nina, Christina took after her father in terms of love.

People might think girls were unable to steer clear of getting hurt in a relationship, but Phil was the one that played such a role in his story with Anya.

Christina put love above everything else, and so did Phil.

Bella replied after a while, “I think it’s a good choice, but my reason is different – you two have the same family background and your parents go way back, so you two could skip matching each other for marriage and be married directly.”

“While there is time for work, why waste it on love?” Bella continued.

“If I find a good man around me, I would marry him immediately to satisfy my parents, and then we could live our own life.”

Bella made Christina and Alana silent for a while and Alana said, “You two represent the war between love and interest.”

Christina put love above all, while Bella put interest first.

Bella was entrepreneurial while her parents were much less.

She was passionate about medicine and she took it as her major in university. She wanted to work in the field of neurosurgery despite the fact that female surgeons are few and neurosurgeons were much fewer. But she was outstanding.

And her excellency came from her devotion to medicine, which made her hardly put effort into a relationship.

She was the only daughter in her family. Though her parents were not so conservative as to force her to marry someone, she knew they wished her to marry well.

She didn’t believe in love and marriage but paradoxically she wanted to reassure her parents, so she wanted to marry someone in due time.

A nominal marriage based on oral agreement and interest required less for love, which meant she could devote more to her loved one – neurosurgery.

Christina cried, “Wow, so cool.”

They talked a lot but they didn’t talk much about love or marriage which was a bit inappropriate for them to discuss at their age – 21 and 19.

If Jamarion didn’t bring it up tonight, they wouldn’t talk about it at all.

It was a good thing that their character was revealed through this talk. Alana felt she was like a fence-sitter, and yet she agreed more with Christina.

Christina grew up with the sweet love story of her parents, so she thought love should come before marriage.

Bella suddenly asked in the chat group, “What do you think of Benedict?”

Christina was a bit amazed, “Do you want to marry him?”

Bella smiled faintly. “It occurred to me he is kind of qualified when we talk about this topic, so I want to ask about your opinion.”

She continued before the other two could answer, “First, we know his family background and character; second, he looks pretty good; finally, he is capable of running Uncle Cantillo’s company.”

“If I marry him, he could help with the businesses of my family, which means I could be more devoted to medicine.”

Alana and Christina agreed with her after hearing her explanation.

But then she calmed them down, “It is my wishful thinking if he could not agree with me.”

“Never mind. He might have a girlfriend in several years and he might marry someone else when I reach the age for legal marriage.”

“But you could tell him in advance about your plan and he might consider you first.” Christina smiled and advised.

Christina somehow felt that Bella and Benedict would also be a perfect match, just like Alana and Jamarion.

So, she advised so.
