I assumed he was my brother’s friend.
For the first time meeting, David had a gift.
A very pretty wood music box.
When you turn it, it played beautiful music.
Music, birds singing, and water.
It was very peaceful.
David saw how happy I was and suddenly said,
“I made it.”
“You are a doctor, but you also make this?” I
was in shock.
He smiled embarrassedly, and kinda proud.
<
He was so cute.
“My grandpa was a carpenter. I learned from
him as a kid.”
I gave him a thumb up.
During the meal, David felt very comfortable.
I was already joking with him.
“You gave me such an expensive gift the first
time we met, I don’t know what to give you, I don’t know how to paint or sing.”
David laughed, “It’s okay, next time we meet,
that will be your return gift.”
As we were talking, a familiar voice interrupted.
My mood crashed to the ground.

I turned around, I saw Jake standing there
looking tired.
“Riley, do you know how hard it was for me to find you?”
Jake was out of breath.
He saw David and frowned.
He walked up to me, and grabbed me off the chair.
“Why didn’t you reply to my messages?” “Riley, you are amazing, you didn’t even break
up with me yet, and you are already going on dates with other guys?”
Jake’s voice was just loud enough for everyone to hear.
He was hurting my arm.
I pulled away but he held on even tighter.

“Jake, don’t be ridiculous, since the birthday
you said we were breaking up, we were broken.
up!”
“I’m single, I can go on a date with anyone!”
Jake was mad, and he tried to kiss me in front
of everyone.
I wanted to slap him, but I couldn’t move.
Just then, a hand reached between us.
David grabbed Jake and pulled him away,
protecting me behind him.
“Sir, if you do that again, I will call the police
for harassment.”
“Who are you? I’m talking to my girlfriend,
don’t interfere!”

He tried to pull David, but David easily lifted
him.
“You… put me down!”
“Sir, judging by how angry you are, I can’t say
that you are her boyfriend.”
“What if you’re a bad guy? What if you are
trying to take her away? What do you guys think? Is it possible?”
David’s calm and polite attitude got support
from people around us.
Jake couldn’t win against him, so he gave up.
As David was putting him down, he suddenly
lunged towards him.
They started fighting on the ground.
The restaurant security was not able to stop
them
<
I called 911.
I also called Sarah.
I told her to look after her boyfriend.
But Sarah coldly replied, “Don’t call me about
Jake.
“I’m not getting back together with him!”
She hung up.
I looked at the phone in confusion.
At the station, they were just educated and then
let go.
When we left, Jake looked at me with his usual
passion.
I sighed, “Jake, please stop harassing me.”

Jake immediately said, “I was drunk that day, I
was joking, please don’t take it to heart.”
“Riley, I didn’t want to break up with you, I love
you.‘
I laughed, “You love me, but why did you keep
me hidden for 5 years? Why did you make me
hide in the shadows?”
“Jake, you don’t love me, you just love
yourself!”
I left, and Jake followed me.
“I’m warning you, if you keep following me, I’ll
call the cops.”
David stood in front of me, and Jake gave up.
But I didn’t expect that Jake would announce
our relationship to the whole world.
