Sakura Suzuki has always prioritised her friendship with Mia Yoshino, even when it meant burying her own heart. In their second year of college, both girls fall for Haru Soma, but when Mia confesses her feelings, Sakura chooses loyalty over love, silently stepping aside to help Mia win his affection.

Years later, on Mia and Haru’s wedding day, the carefully constructed facade shatters. In a shocking turn of events, Haru kisses Sakura—the maid of honour—and confesses a long-hidden truth:

"It was always you, Sakura," he said softly, his voice rough. "I've always loved you. Not Mia. You."

Guilt and longing consume Sakura as she grapples with the revelation. That night, she makes a wish at 11:11—and wakes up nine years earlier, back in college, on the day she first met Haru.

Given a second chance, Sakura is determined to claim the love she sacrificed—but rewriting the past is far more complicated than she imagined. Her choices start to unravel everything she once knew. Friendships are tested, hearts are broken, and Sakura must confront the painful truth: Pursuing her own happiness could cost her everything she holds dear.

Will she find the love she's always dreamed of, or will her second chance destroy the very life she hoped to protect?

The Groom Chooses The Maid Of Honour

"Ah, so you payed Ryo to take that picture of Sakura." The voice cut through her thoughts, sharp and biting.

Mia spun around, her breath catching as she saw Kei standing there, his eyes not the soft, adoring gaze she was used to. No, this time, his eyes were hard—cold. There was no affection, no warmth in them. Just icy disdain.

Her stomach dropped. Kei. Kei knew everything. Her heart raced, panic flooding her chest. She had to act fast. She couldn't let him expose her. She couldn't let him ruin everything she had worked so hard for.

Kei's voice was dark, the anger in his tone unmistakable. "I knew you were scheming, Mia," he muttered, stepping closer, his words heavy with disgust. "But I never imagined you'd be this cruel. You let Kenji assault Sakura—you let it happen. All because you deluded yourself into thinking everything was Sakura's fault."

Mia's mind was spinning. She couldn't speak. She had no defense. How had it come to this? This wasn't the Kei she'd known. He wasn't looking at her with those puppy-dog eyes. No, this Kei… was someone else. Someone who had seen her true colours.

"Kei…" she whispered, her voice shaking. This was wrong. She couldn't believe the way he was talking to her. Kei, the one who loved her, was now turning on her. He was speaking to her as if she were a stranger. As if he saw the monster she had become.

Kei leaned in, his breath hot against her ear, his voice low and full of venom. "And now I can't wait to see the look on Haru's face when I tell him everything. When I show him the kind of person you really are."

Mia felt her blood run cold. No. She couldn't let him do that. She couldn't let Haru find out. Her chest tightened, panic rising to a choking level. Her throat closed up as she stumbled backward, trying to regain her composure.

"You wouldn't do that," she gasped, her voice trembling with desperation. "You wouldn't hurt me. You—You love me."

Kei's eyes narrowed, his face hardening with disgust. "That was yesterday, Mia. Today, you're just a selfish, vindictive bitch who used her best friend for her own gain. You let someone else take the fall for your sins. You sold her out. You let Sakura be violated for your sick little game." His words hit her like a slap, each one a reminder of just how far she had fallen in his eyes. "I don't know who you are anymore. You crossed a line I can't ignore."

Mia reached out, her hands trembling as she grabbed his arm. "No, please, Kei… Please don't tell him. I'll fix everything. I swear."

Kei wrenched his arm out of her grasp, stepping back from her, his face devoid of any empathy. "What you've done is unforgivable, Mia. And I'm not staying silent anymore. You don't deserve anyone's kindness. Not mine. Not Haru's. Not anyone's."

With one final, bitter shove, Kei turned and walked away, leaving Mia standing in the hallway, trembling with a mixture of disbelief and sheer terror. She had lost her greatest ally, and now the one person who had known all her schemes was gone. And worse—he was going to tear her world apart.

You Wouldn’t Do That
