Alina and Aden had been dating for 1 year. Alina had always known Aden was a flamboyant person with everything, but who would have thought it was cheating on her? Oh my god, exactly like talent blooming, but is it a little bit too early?

In this relationship, he spins her like a pinwheel. They’ve had many fun times together, filled with laughter. She always loves everything he gives her, whether it’s a small gift. On their first anniversary, Aden gave her a small Flugger keychain, which is a funny, ugly monster with its teeth sticking out. Also, Aden’s personality is opposite to hers. When he’s unhappy, he always blames it on her. Day by day, she feels too exhausted from these mood swings.

On a beautiful day, she found that Aden was cheating on her. At first, Alina considered a dramatic revenge, such as posting passive-aggressive story slides or hiding his favorite hoodie in the freezer or immediately going to the house to beat her up. But it was just a thought of a girl in that situation, then they broke up, she started living at home, and crying as much as she could to ease the sadness. After receiving some advice from her friends, they helped her clean up all the things related to him, and she came across the first anniversary gift.

She looked at it for five minutes, and all her memories of him came flooding back. She turned it over in her hands and grinned: “You know what? I low-key want to thrift it this year.”

So she did. She took the keychain to the thrift store, placed it carefully on a shelf, and whispered: “Haizzzz….go find someone who actually deserves your ugliness.”

And honestly, seeing Flugger in the thrift store a week later, probably being hugged by some random kid, made her laugh. Aden might have cheated, but Alina? She thrifted him out of her life, and it felt epic.
