He said he had been looking for me for over 800 days. He said it was all a misunderstanding on my part. He said he only loves me. But the next day, I saw him choosing a bed with a pregnant woman.
"I just forgot to block my ex's number. That's all."
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, I took out my phone and removed Theobold Townsend's number from the blocked list, then dialed a voice call to him. Theobold was my ex-boyfriend.
The call was answered in less than three seconds. "Darling, I'm home alone now and really scared. Could you come over and keep me company?" I said to the phone while imitating that woman's sweet, manipulative tone. Then I hung up the phone right away without caring about Theobold's reaction.
I didn't give Gaylord Waters any chance to explain the situation and walked out of his place with my phone.
...
It was Gaylord's birthday, the first one since we started dating.
I had hoped we could spend a romantic evening together, then our relationship would move forward smoothly before we got married and had children.
But to my surprise, Gaylord completely forgot about our dinner plans.
When I arrived with the chocolate cake that I had made by myself, he was still on the phone with his ex-girlfriend. He was even oblivious to my entrance.
I thought he was a gentle and considerate guy, but I found that he couldn't let go of his past, which proved my luck to be as bad as ever.
As soon as I got downstairs, Gaylord called me.
I didn't answer his call. Instead, I texted him. "It's over between us."
I didn't give him a chance to respond and put his number straight on the blocked list. I had become quite adept at blocking someone's number.
Theobold was blacklisted by me the same way, though I never deleted him, just left him on the blacklist.
I took a cab home. As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I was stunned by the man standing in front of me. "What are you doing here?"
"You told me that you were home alone and scared, didn't you?" Theobold was dressed in workout gear, clearly just back from the gym. "Is the password unchanged?"
Without waiting for my reply, he entered the code quickly and walked into my apartment.
It was the first time I'd seen him since we broke up two years ago.
Before I could react, he was already washing up in the bathroom. He acted as if it was his place.
I stood at the bathroom door and stared at him without blinking. "That message was actually from me... um..."
Before I could organize my words to explain the situation to him, he suddenly turned around, walked over, and kissed me.
"Theobold, I..."
He didn't give me a chance to speak and swallowed every word I tried to say.
When I woke up, it was already the next morning.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Theobold sleeping beside me. He was just the same as before, domineering when awake, but his sharpness and intensity faded away when he was sleeping. He looked as harmless as a sleeping child.
But I knew it would be dangerous to think of him as harmless.
Seeing him like that, I was panicked.
Just as I was about to quietly get out of bed and pretend nothing had happened, Theobold's arm wrapped around my waist with uncanny accuracy. "Do you know how long I've waited for you to stop blocking my number?"
I dared not speak.
His warm breath was right by my ear and made me feel weak all over.
I feared that if I spoke, he'd realize I had no resistance to him at that moment.
He continued, "805 days have passed. Pansy, I've counted every single day and waited for 805 days."
Theobold was handsome, capable, well-educated, and came from a good family. He had been a flawless boyfriend in every respect.
