The Boy Who Chose the Wrong Girl

Summary

On the day we were supposed to register for college, my boyfriend—who had just gotten into a top-tier university—suddenly said he picked the wrong major and wanted to take a gap year to reapply.

I knew immediately: He was doing it for her. His childhood friend who didn't get in.

His parents begged me to talk sense into him.

After struggling with it all night, he stood outside my dorm and told me:

"I've thought it through. I'm not taking a gap year. Let's be together properly."

But at the freshman welcome party, when the counselor called his name, his phone lit up.
