Mira’s phone buzzed. It was Elias' message: [The team has issued an urgent task, and we have to go to the neighboring city for support. We won’t be home these days.]
[Okay.]
She sent the reply before covering herself with the quilt. The muffled sobs filled the quiet room, her tears soaking into the fabric.
Three days later, it was already past nine o’clock when Mira finished working late. The snow was falling heavily outside as she aimlessly walked down the street. In front of her, a crowd had gathered beneath the overpass.
“Will you freeze to death if you jump down in this weather?”
“Two handsome guys are competing for the heart of a beautiful girl…”
“It seems that the girl’s ex-boyfriend found out she was getting married, and now he’s competing with her fiancé. Whoever swims back first will win her heart.”
Mira lifted her gaze through the crowd and spotted Elias standing on the overpass, his figure unmistakable, with a tall young man beside him.
Before she could process it, both men jumped into the water at the same time.
Vera's voice rang out from above, frantic: "Stop it, stop it! Come up quickly!"
