“That man?”
My heart suddenly trembled violently, and I asked incredulously, “Are you talking about… Reynaldo?”
However, it’s impossible. Before I met him, I didn’t know Reynaldo at all.
But why that day, even Reynaldo said I had forgotten things from my childhood.
What on earth is going on?
Winston took a deep drag on his cigarette, blowing smoke rings as he said, “You would never guess that my seemingly quiet and reserved older brother would one day start collecting a girl’s photo and often stare at it in a daze.”
“Ha, you can’t imagine, at 18, he was almost lovesick.”
Listening to Winston’s words, my heart was beating fast.
I could hardly believe that what he described would be Reynaldo.
And there was his so–called photo, the girl in the photo, would it be me, or Kimberly?
I looked at Winston, my heart trembling non–stop.
Ilicked my chapped lips and asked him, “Who is the girl in the photo?”
“Ha!” Winston gave me a strange smile and said word by word, “It’s you.”
“No, it’s not possible!”

I shook my head unconsciously, although I couldn’t believe it, but a huge wave had already risen in my heart.
Winston leaned back against the box with both hands, his upper body arched backwards, one leg crossed over the other.
He lazily smiled and said, “How could it not be possible? It’s you from high school, I even saw him gently caressing that photo.”
Although Winston spoke so confidently, I still couldn’t believe it in my
heart.
I even had some doubts whether the girl in the photo was just someone who looked very similar to me, but in fact, it wasn’t me.
I even suspect that Reynaldo saying I don’t remember things from my childhood is actually him mistaking me for the girl he had a promise with
when he was a child.
And that girl was truly the girl in the photo.
“Can you believe it…” Winston laughed at me, “Back then, he just wanted to be with you.”
I tried hard to suppress the turmoil in my heart and said in a deep voice, “You must have mistaken me for someone else. It couldn’t have been me because I didn’t know him at all before I met you, so he couldn’t possibly have my photo or like me.”
Winston shrugged noncommittally.
He said, “Whether you believe it or not, the fact is, he has always wanted you.”
Including the night of the class reunion, it was also a trap he set.
About the class reunion that night, I knew beforehand that it was

deliberately planned by Reynaldo.
But I always believed that the reason he would engage with me was because he hated me.
But at this moment in Winston’s words, it seemed to take on another layer
of meaning, it seemed that Reynaldo liked me, so he did that.
At that moment, I couldn’t distinguish what was the truth.
Winston chuckled softly and said, “From childhood to adulthood,
everyone has always compared me to that man.”
Although everyone has always been praising me, belittling him, and even using his dimness to set off my brightness.
But I also knew that it was just their way of flattering me.
How many times have I heard them gossiping behind my back, saying that
was not as good as him at all, saying that I was just riding on the coattails of my stepmother.
They said I won the painting award, but I just used his work without permission.
Ah, from that time on, I was always competing with him, whatever he had, I had to have, whatever he didn’t have, I had to have too.
