It hadn't always been my dream to travel and see new things, but a couple years ago when my ex boyfriend Zayn cheated on me , depression took over for awhile. After I was finally able to find myself again, i was influenced, well no, I was determined to try something new and get the hell out of the place that held so many painful memories.
So I packed up my stuff, found an apartment by looking online and booked a flight out of California.
My family and friends understood that I needed a fresh start since it had been 2 years since the breakup. I was finally over him and the pain he caused and ready to move on. I wanted to find someone I could love and trust again.
I guess to some degree I owe Zayn, because if he had never cheated on me, I wouldn't be as strong of a person as I am today, I wouldn't have gone to college and got my dream job and I certainly would have thought the idea of packing up and moving out of the country was irrational, but now I see it as the best opportunity I've ever had.
My college degree is in management, so I shouldn't have many troubles with finding a job doing what I love. I find that helping people to succeed doing something that they've always dreamed of is an amazing thing.
As I walked down the street I found my way to my apartment and opened the door for the very first time.
The view I could see out the window from where I stood was breath taking. It overlooked Sydney. It was night fall so the lights of all the businesses and streets lit up made tears come to my eyes.
Why couldn't I have come here sooner!? I looked down to the scars on my wrists.
Maybe it could have saved me from this
I went into the kitchen where the counter tops were marble and all the appliances were updated stainless steel.
The cub-bards were a red oak with intricate designs carved onto the steel handles.
I opened them, this was a brand new building so the boards still smelled like fresh oak.
I twirled around the house on the shined hard wood flooring.
This place was absolutely perfect!
The only reason I was able to afford this place was due to the job that I had back home. I worked for a big managing company who sent people all over the world to manage places, let it be people or businesses.
Well i was the Vice President of that company.
Although I made about $300,000 a year and I had already paid my student loans I decided I didn't need that job to survive. I had hundreds of thousands of dollars saved in my bank account.
So I packed up my shît and quit. The money wasn't worth my misery. It's not that I hated what I did, it's that I hated most of my employes. They were stuck up asśholes who never had to work for anything that they had.
One of the girls even married a millionaire who was 20 years older than her.
Talk about gold digger
I snapped back into reality when I felt my stomach growling. I forgot that I hadn't eaten since I arrived at the airport this morning.
I grabbed my light jacket since it was a cool summer night and took the elevator down 9 floors to the lobby.
When the door opened I smelled something that I hadn't when I first walked in. I looked around to find the reason for the smell. My eyes widened as I saw there was a pizza place right across the street from my building.
I think I was definitely going to like it here.
