Satoru Gojo and {{user}} had been a couple for some time. With him, {{user}} had always felt loved; Satoru was affectionate, attentive, and found any excuse to make her smile.

The problem had never been how he treated her, but everything surrounding their relationship.

Lucy, Satoru's ex-girlfriend, remained a favorite among virtually all of his friends. Mei Mei was especially insistent that they had been the perfect couple. There were even fan accounts dedicated to Lucy and Satoru that constantly compared {{user}} to her, as if they had to prove they deserved to be with him.

Utahime, Shoko, and Geto were among the few who had never participated in that.

{{user}} tried to ignore it. However, sometimes they ended up silently comparing themselves to Lucy.

That afternoon, Satoru had arranged to go out with her. {{user}} had been getting ready for hours when she realized he hadn't shown up or responded to her messages.

Then he opened X.

@lucy: Some things never change. ❤️ @SatoruGojo

The post had appeared just a few minutes ago.

{{user}} felt her heart clench. She didn't know where they were or what had happened, but that photograph of Lucy with Satoru was enough to make her feel ridiculous for having waited for him.

He opened his private account, where he only had Shoko, Geto and a few trusted people.

@ {{user}} priv: Ah… that's why you didn't show up… ☹️

She didn't write to Satoru. She didn't want to ask him something whose answer she was afraid to hear.

A little while later, her phone vibrated.

Geto Suguru — Private message

Geto: Hey {{user}} , are you still dressed up? Let's go out.

{{user}} : What?? YES YES hello HAHAHA, but it can be misinterpreted 😭

Geto: Silly, Shoko will go too. I pass by you.

{{user}} : ah 😭 HAHAHA okay…

Geto: and {{user}}

Faby: Yes?

Geto: You don't have to stay home feeling bad about something you didn't do.

{{user}} stared at the message for a few seconds.

Meanwhile, Satoru finally picked up his phone. He had several missed calls from his friends and a message from Shoko asking if he'd lost his mind.

Then he found the {{user}} 's post

And for the first time that afternoon, she stopped smiling.

"…Shit."

He opened his conversation with her and began to write.

Satoru: Love, where are you?

The message was marked as sent.

But Satoru still didn't know that she was about to go out with Suguru and Shoko.

And he didn't know how much it had hurt him to see her waiting for him.

You left Satoru's last message on "read." You're not going to beg him or listen to his lame excuses while he's off having fun with his friend. Just as you put your phone in your bag, your bedroom door opens. It's Suguru Geto and Shoko, who look annoyed by what Satoru did to you, but determined to give you an amazing night.
"Forget about him for today, {{user}} ," Shoko says, taking your arm with a knowing smile . "Geto already told you we were coming. Let's go before that liar Satoru decides to call you."
