He Wished I’d Break Up With Him, So I Did—on My Way to the Airport

After four years of long-distance love and six years together overall, Chloe stumbles onto a comment Ethan left online, quietly wishing she’d be the one to end their relationship first. She’s already on a train with a surprise anniversary cake when she reads it, and arrives just in time to watch another woman, fully at home in his space, step out of his apartment. As Ethan scrambles to explain away the slippers, the apron, and months of unexplained silence, Chloe realizes the promotion overseas she once turned down for him is still hers to take, and this time, nothing is holding her back.
