Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Alicia's eyes met her mother's, and the two held hands. Seeing that her mother had nodded, Alicia also said, "Let's do it!" "Don't worry, I will try my best!" With a slight smile, Alicia looked at him gratefully. "Thank you, Marshall!" "What about the cost?" As soon as Mrs. Blanchard spoke, Alicia immediately answered, "Mom! Dr. Clark already toldthat this is a minor surgery, it won't cost much. I have it all prepared! Don't worry about it!" At the stime, she instantly hinted Marshall with a look, and he nodded in agreement. "Yes, that's true! It won't cost much as the surgery will not be done on any important body parts. The fees have already been paid!" Alicia and her mother returned to the ward to eat and chat with her father for a while. After that, she went back to the doctor's office to enquire about the surgery fees, and then paid the full amount required. Fortunately, Frederick gave her a lot of money lately, hence she could actually afford to pay 300,000 dollars! That night, she stayed in the hospital until eight o'clock and only left when her mother urged her to go home. Alicia walked out of the hospital with heavy footsteps. She was actually very worried about the surgery! "Since Dad has awakened, God won't be so cruel, right?" Along the way, Alicia walked absent-mindedly, praying for her father in her heart. When she finally cto her senses, she found herself standing in front of a bus stop sign, while still holding the car keys in her hand.

She gave her head a few knocks and curled her lips lightly.

"Don't scare yourself! You must be crazy! You are the pillar of the family now. If you are afraid too, what should your parents do? It is not a dangerous surgery! Worse comes to worst, you can take care of him if he ends up having to be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life!" Alicia thought to herself.

Taking a deep breath, she turned around to walk back but paused very quickly as soon as her eyes landed on the shiny bus stop sign. On one side was a sales advertisement of a mall and on the other side was an advertisement for electronic products. The one in the middle, however, was a huge cartoon picture.

'Under the pear tree is the promise of three lifetimes.' This picture... Wasn't that St. Abbott University? This girl, the way she dressed, wasn't this Alicia back then? The ankle-length ladylike dress used to be her favorite outfit after she started dating him because he didn't like it when she dressed up in tight clothes or short skirts; he disliked it when she wore revealing clothes. To please him, she restrained herself from wearing those clothes even though they were of her favorite style. She changed the way she was just to make him happy. Alicia turned to look at the man in the picture. Indeed, he was wearing a white shirt with the familiar black corners on the collar, black slacks, rolled- up cuffs, a black watch, and white sneakers with the sblack lines around the sides, just like Jeremy back then. The outfit was just as how she remembered deep in her mind.

At that time, his style had always stood out in school as it was different from other students. The way he dressed had always been more fashionable, more mature, and more sophisticated! The background of the picture was a bright shade of blue like the blue sky. As she looked up, a pear tree entered her sight and she realized that the blurred school logo was none other than the logo of St. Abbott University! 'Under the pear tree is the promise of three lifetimes.' In a flash, a similar image popped up in Alicia's mind.

"Jeremy, if we get separated one day and cannot find each other, you must wait for me! We should not give up on each other so easily. Let's make a promise for three lifetimes!" "If this ever happens, then we will put an advertisement to meet at Moonlight Bar all over the cities that we're in, and post them on all the streets and alleys. If we can afford it, we will spread the promise to every corner of the world! Whoever sees it first has to go to Moonlight Bar and wait for the other person no matter how far we are! Even if we have already fallen for someone else, there must still be an ending to this relationship! If there happens to be a branch of Moonlight Bar in that city, then we should leave our contacts in every single one of the bars. If not, we shall meet at the largest, busiest, and most expensive bar, okay?" Her immature voice kept echoing in her ears as well as the simple and lengthy "Okay!" Of course! Back then, she always blabbered so excitedly, for she feared that she would miss something and that there would be an accident that would separate the both of them, hindering them from staying together forever. She never realized that he was actually way more silent than he was excited.

But at that time, when they were a couple, Jeremy's personality was just like Frederick's current personality, quiet and reserved. She thought that it was just his nature but when she thought of it, she realized that was probably his true reaction. He must have felt so lost, hesitant, or he probably saw all of this coming and didn't want to deal with it.

At present...

This picture, was one of his masterpieces? Subconsciously, Alicia looked down to the lower right corner, and there she saw the two words clearly - 'Casterwich City'! This was the advertisement that carried their promise and the place that they were supposed to meet! There was also a light mark that looked like a stamp on the side. Inside the circle was the letter 'J'! The pear tree on top wasn't a random decoration, it was a hint for her! She used to like the pear blossom the most! What did he want? Did he really want to reunite with her and fulfil their promise for three lifetimes at this time? When both of them have been hurt badly, left with broken memories, and when she had already married someone else? Twitching the corners of her mouth, Alicia felt that it was ridiculous. What was he trying to do? They had so much hatred for each other! Even if he had left everything in the past, she was no longer the old Alicia Blanchard either. It was impossible for her to not hold any grudges!

For the past three years, she had waited for him because she believed in his 'love' and she firmly trusted that their 'love' and 'feelings' for each NO other could help them overcanything.

But currently, she already knew that everything he did for her was only because he had other intentions 5m Since the truth had been revealed, O there was no reason for her to trust in him anymore! Besides, even without Lindsay, wouldn't he also have a fiancee? Didn't he understand the current situation? Why was he acting up at this moment? Was he dissatisfied because he didn't think she seemed miserable enough and wanted to repeat all the tricks he pulled on her to see her life get worse? They always said that it was fun for pretty women to make guys fall into their beauty trap again and again. Was it the sfor good-looking men? "Is this a new book or a comic? It looks so romantic!" "Yeah, it looks so beautiful. It must be a love story! Love stories are my favorite. I wonder who's the author for this? Why isn't the nof the author written there?" "Well know when it's released! Under the pear tree is the promise of three lifetimes? Is it going to be a trilogy?" "We should search it up on the internet! Maybe it's an adaptation of a best-selling book?" "If so, I'll buy it! This picture is so beautiful!"

Occasionally, speople stopped in front of the poster and talked about it. Similarly, they thought the poster was beautiful and admired 'it for a long time. But for Alicia, all she felt was utter melancholy! She took her eyes away from the picture and walked to the parking lot. This picture was probably just a picture to everyone except her!
