Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

"But after watching you for a while, I really started thinking you were like a wildflower, just growing free and unbothered."

When Jenna said this, Adler quickly covered her mouth, "Alright, that's enough, you don't need to say another word."

Adler had always believed their relationship was a mutual journey, only to find out that all these years, it had been just his own fantasy.

Suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes.

Had he been living in a dream this whole time?

Turns out Jenna's cluelessness was the real deal.

"Still, you've always been wise beyond your years."

Jenna tugged on Adler's hoodie playfully, "You had a crush on me that early? Why didn't you just come out and say it?"

"I did, but you never seemed to take it seriously."

Jenna was taken aback by this revelation, "You really did?"

"I did!"

"When?"

Jenna couldn't remember a thing about it.

When did this even happen?

How could she have no memory of it?

Adler jumped in, "I tried to confess to you once on the biggest field on campus. I

even brought flowers, but before I could finish, you just took them."

"Oh! Now I remember- it was Teacher's Day. I thought you brought them for a teacher. I wondered why you were so hesitant. You should've been straightforward, like saying you wanted to be my boyfriend. Then I would've got it!"

"I did say it."

"What?"

"Right after you took the flowers, I told you!"

"...Uh, how do I not remember that at all?"

"But you didn't hold back when you hit me that day."

"Seriously, I went easy on you! But who knew you were just putting on a show, acting like you couldn't take me down."

Adler and Jenna spent the entire night sharing embarrassing childhood stories.

Meanwhile, Sophie was eavesdropping on the other side of the wall.

Colby wrapped his arms around Sophie from behind, his voice low and teasing, "Is listening in that fascinating?"

"I didn't catch anything, weird, there were voices just now."

"Maybe... it's just a break."

Jenna and Adler had already set their wedding date.

But Jenna was having pre-wedding jitters.

"What do I do, what do I do? I never really thought about getting married."

Jenna paced back and forth anxiously, "Sophie, were you nervous when you got married?"

"Not really."

Sophie thought it over, "With Colby by my side, I wasn't too nervous."
