Her Insecurity Cure

1. Serah

Have you ever felt like love isn't for you?

You see people around you happy with their significant other clinging, dating, giving each other that look, genuinely in love and you're the only loner among them

Every time you're in a relationship with someone, all that happens is it ends in a negative way or they just leave you for somebody else

For someone better than you

And you get to wonder why you even tried being with them in the first place when all they did was treat you unjustly

Hey, my name is Happy-Serah Collins

My mom gave me the name Serah, she wouldn't back down from it being a second name

Neither did my Dad with the name he had planned nine months before I was born, he gave me the name Happy because he felt happy the first he saw me

As obviously as it seems, yes, the names were combined

I go by Serah though, because my other name doesn't really portray my life, not at all it

Sure I've been happy in some parts of my life, like when I was a kid, when I made it in college, when I got my current job that pays so well

Those are the only memories I remember feeling authentically happy

There's a part of me which is truly sad and alone, well seventy percent of me to be honest

My love life isn't what I'd describe pleasing or merry

Enough about that, I shut my holder of secrets

Since today is the favorite day, Saturday. I decided to lay in bed for the longest in my silky shorts and a T-shirt writing what I just said earlier

I live alone and I'm proud of that

This place is my comfort zone, where the real me is shown on full display without an audience or anyone to bully or judge me

I don't have friends, I just have acquaintances, that's what I call them now

Friends are backstabbers, or maybe it's just me thinking too much, or maybe I just met the wrong people at the wrong time

Whichever way being close to someone makes you vulnerable to things you could've avoided

So my conclusion remains the same, friends are the backstabbers

I'll always remember🎶
The day you kiss my lips🎶
Light as a feather🎶

My phone rings beside me and I picked it up nonchalantly

I sat up straight immediately I read the phone screen, my boss calling

"Hello Sir" I said tuning my voice to professional

"How're you" he asks

I shuffled and sat leaning on the bed's headboard

"I'm fine sir, how're you"

"I'm okay... well I called to remind you to be very early... unlike other meetings you'll accompany me to the board meeting this time around" the old man said

My lips parted in shock, my eyes roamed around the room as I registered what Mr Berg just said

"Alright I'll be early" I mustered to say quietly still in shock

"Good" he said before cutting the call

That was odd and extremely usual, I never accompanied him to such important meetings let alone the one where all the heads of departments and the CEO himself was involved
