Chapter 29

Chapter 29
I felt very uncomfortable. If Ethan felt pain because of me, I would rather be the one who was in pain.
I cursed Jack fiercely in my heart. It was all because of this bastard who insisted on inviting me to listen to music, otherwise this accident would not have happened.
But in the end, I felt that I could not blame Jack. Indeed, all this was just an accident. I could only blame myself. Why did I accept Jack's invitation out of weakness? If I refused, nothing would have happened.
Ethan had been sitting on the bed in a daze with an indifferent expression. My heart was getting more and more painful, so I simply lay down on the bed again.
But I couldn't sleep at all. As soon as I closed my eyes, I thought of Ethan's sad face. I didn't fall asleep until dawn.
I didn't fall asleep until noon the next day. I saw an unread message from Ethan on my phone, and my eyes widened immediately.
When I opened the message with joy and saw the content, I was desperate.
"Michael, you and I were a mistake. I'm married and I have a wife. Our relationship is just dancing on the edge of a knife and will not have any result. Jack is my student. I know him. He is very simple and beautiful. I can see that he likes you. If you like him too, then I sincerely wish you two good luck. You will not contact me anymore. You can contact my wife to pay the rent." After reading this message, my heart was broken. I really didn't expect that Ethan and I had just started, but it would end because of a misunderstanding. But he has already entered my heart. I miss him day and night. I can't live without him. I immediately replied to the message. "No, Ethan, I don't agree to break up!" As a result, my message was returned as soon as it was sent. I found that I was blocked by him. I called him again without giving up, but I was also blocked. I was really going crazy! I slammed my phone to the ground with a bang, screamed, and tears poured out like rain. "No! Ethan, I love you! Please don't abandon me!"
I cried loudly while hugging the pillow, not caring whether Jack next door would hear it. After a long time, I climbed out of bed.
I got up and took a shower. My eyes were swollen in the mirror. I went into the kitchen to drink water and found a note on the dining table. It was left by Jack.
"Michael, I made an omelette for you and put it in the oven to keep it warm. Remember to take it out and eat it. I also made coffee and kept it warm in the coffee pot. Remember to change the dressing on your wound. I will work part-time at the bar after class and will be back later."
Looking at Jack's beautiful handwriting, I felt his concern for me through the text, which comforted my broken heart.
However, I felt like chewing wax while eating the delicious omelette. I kept thinking about Ethan in my heart. I would never give up on Ethan like this. I would definitely find a chance to explain it to him clearly.
But now he is angry. I think I should wait for him to calm down and talk to him in two days.
I didn't feel like doing anything that day. I asked several tenants to come back in a few days to pay the rent.
It was past eight o'clock in the evening when Jack came in with a guitar on his back and a sad face. I looked at him in surprise.
"You finished your part-time job so early?"
"Oh, don't mention it. The bar owner fired me as soon as I entered the door. The reason was that many customers complained about me, saying that I didn't meet their song requests. The bar owner was afraid that I would affect the business, so he fired me. I guess that bitch Vivian must have hired someone to deliberately mess with me. Vivian is really bad!"
I quickly comforted Jack.
"Don't be angry with that bitch. At worst, you can work in another bar. After all, you sing so well, you will definitely be very popular."
"Oh? Do you really think I sing well?"
Jack blinked and looked at me, with a very happy expression on his face. I curled my lips.
"It's fake. I'm just trying to make you happy."
"Oh, you lied to me. I'm going to beat you up."
Jack laughed and hit my shoulder. He hit my wound and I groaned in pain. Jack was frightened and immediately said sorry to me and said he would find a new part-time job tomorrow.
I looked at him worriedly.
"Why don't you stop working in the bar? The bar is too messy and there are many bad people in it."
"Alas, but the bar can not only make money, but also improve my singing skills. Besides, I also like to sing for customers!"
After Jack said that, I couldn't say anything to dissuade him. After all, he was doing it for his dream.
Jack was really hardworking. In addition to attending classes, he was also busy looking for a job. A few days later, he found a new bar called Charm. The quality of the customers in this bar was much higher. I was really happy for Jack.
These days, Ethan has not contacted me. I feel empty in my heart. I want to find him, but I am afraid that he is still angry. I have been hesitant in my heart.
I also secretly watched Ethan through the small hole in the wall. He was the same as before, not talking much at home. It was still Miranda who kept nagging, and then asked Ethan to have sex with her.
However, Ethan said that he was not feeling well these days, so he refused to have sex with Miranda. I think he finally found an excuse.
My injuries were almost healed. That night, Jack received a generous tip from his part-time job at the bar, so he invited me out for dinner. At the dinner table, I asked him.
"Have you seen Ethan these days? Did you explain to him about the last incident?"
"Uh... this, I did take his class, but I didn't have the chance to talk to him alone. Besides, I don't know how to explain such an embarrassing thing to him. However, I don't think you need to be so nervous. You and I are both single. Even if something really happened between us, Ethan doesn't need to be angry, right? By the way, Michael, do you like me? Do you really want to be my boyfriend?"
When I heard Jack's words, if I didn't consider what happened between Ethan and me, there was really no need to explain.
But Jack didn't know not only what happened between Ethan and me, but also that I loved him so much.
