Let's Get Married

Chapter 1 My Husband and My Bestie

It is 9 p.m. on rainy day. On such a cool autumn night, Lily stands in front of the villa without an umbrella, the clothes on shoulder getting soaked by the rain. She doesn’t pay it any mind though and keeps the present under her arm carefully wrapped with her coat.

Today is Lily and Tim’s first anniversary. Lily is supposed to be at her mother's house, but she secretly bought a gift to surprise Tim.

As she walks to the door, her clothes get completely soaked. She takes the key from her pocket out and opens the door carefully. Without turning on the light, she stands at the porch and changes her shoes. As she takes off her shoes, she sees a pair of red high-heeled shoes on the floor.

Lily is shocked, because she knows that those are clearly not her shoes; she can tell be the size.

The heart feels like it is being grabbed by a pair of invisible hands. Lily puts the gift in her arms on the ground and walks slowly towards the bedroom on the second floor.

The closer she gets, the clearer the conversation becomes—

“Oh, Tim...”

A familiar female voice penetrates her eardrum; she is enjoying herself quite a bit.

“I know that is how like it,” the man replies. That is without question Tim’s voice.

In the corridor outside the door, Lily feels like she is walking on the edge of a knife with every step. Even if she can't see what's going on inside, the intensity of the voices paint a vivid picture in her mind of what is happening.

“Who do you like better, Lily or me,” the woman suddenly asks. This makes Lily's heart drop into her stomach.

“Are you getting jealous? I am only focused on you baby. How can I even think of her when I have you?” Lily’s heart breaks into a million pieces.
