36 parts Ongoing Mature"I thought I was content-proud of my achievements. But deep down, there was a void. An emptiness that no amount of success could fill. The loneliness was my only constant companion. My conversations were superficial, my connections fleeting. I was surrounded by people, yet I was alone."
"And then came Ria. I remember the first time I saw her. She was a breath of fresh air, a stark contrast to the sterile environment I was used to. Her laughter was genuine, her eyes sparkled with life. It was like she brought color into a world that had long been grey. I found myself opening up in ways I hadn't in years."
" I felt alive. She made me laugh, she made me dream, and, most importantly, she made me feel understood. I could talk to her about everything-my fears, my hopes, my regrets."
"But then, she was gone. Just like that, she had to leave. I watched her walk away, and with her went the color, the laughter, and the light. The void returned, deeper and more insistent than before. I had tasted what it meant to truly connect with someone, only to have it ripped away."
"I thought I could handle the weight of my world, but without her, it's crushing me. The reality is harsh-some connections are brief, and they leave a mark that never fully heals. I'm left with memories and a longing that can never truly be satisfied. And though she's gone, her light still flickers in the shadows of my heart."
Will he ever meet her again?
let's enter the journey with all darkness in us
