How can a person who felt so destroyed after a breakup be so successful in most industries after 1 year? 

Essence Zuri had been with Kyle Jones since the beginning of her freshman year. Even though she had a full course load and a part time job, she made sure to always find time for him. She was head over heels in love for him.

When she found out that he had cheated on her, she was devastated. She had invested so much of her time, energy and love into the relationship and it had all been for naught. She felt a deep sense of betrayal and hurt.

She was determined to make Kyle regret ever having hurt her and she was successful in her revenge - within 2 years, she had achieved success in many industries and Kyle knew he had made a huge mistake. . . .

"News, it has been stated that the most beautiful interviewer in the USA as of right now, is the eighteen year old Essence Zuri," The female reporter announced. 

I smiled, taking a sip of my red wine as I settled back into my sofa, worth a year's salary. I am Essence Zuri, and I have come a long way from the heartache I experienced after my breakup.

I may have felt destroyed then, but I refused to let it define me - and now, here I am. . . .

➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳

When my heart was broken, I found myself inspired to create something meaningful. I wanted to take the pain I was feeling and turn it into something beautiful, something that could be shared with the world. So I wrote this story that I could use to express my emotions in a different way. . . .

"Why are you late?" He questions, sounding exactly as I remember "You know, traffic." I apologize, making a turn to trudge to him majestically. "If you say so," he nods, the night preventing my view of his face "Thank you, Azazel," I mutter, my tone neither high nor low. "Why did you want to see me?" He polls, his voice resounding through the dark abandoned warehouse. "Yes Azazel," I smirk and try to hide the slight fear of reject nagging at the back of my head. "What is it about?" He implores his arm going to rub his prominent chin as he fixes a stare at me. "I want my soul back," I inform, matching his gaze with mine. "How do you plan on getting it back?" He quizzes, stepping a few inches my way into the light. "With a deal Azazel, or more specifically, a pact," I tell using all my energy to stop my feet from moving backward. "That is very difficult Xander, you sealed your vow with a drop of blood," he argues, the moonlight falling more on his face as he tilts his head upwards. "And I'm here to make and seal another," I converse awaiting a reply. "No, you got what you wanted, to be rich, famous, and loved, what else do you desire?" He asks, his supernatural blue eyes having a scary glint to them. "My soul," I repeat. "Plus I know you love making deals Azazel, no matter how you try to hide it, I see the excitement and mischief you try to conceal." "Same way I see the little fear of rejection bubbling within you, I detect it in your eyes, I hear it in your heartbeat, and the blood pumping through your veins," he sneers in response, squaring his wide shoulders to come off as intimidating. "Hence we understand each other well, we know you've got more to win than lose, and I've got more to lose than win," I confess. "You are right," he lets out in a husky tone, his red lips curving into a hint of a smile. "So what do you say demon, you in?" I invite, my eyebrow raised "I am," he gleams. "What's this pact about?"

In the quiet corners of my heart, I kept a secret garden-a fragile bloom of love that I tended with care. It was for someone who never truly belonged there. His touch was like frost on petals, beautiful yet cold. His words, sweet as honey, dripped with deception. I loved him with a fervour that blinded me to the truth sometimes love is a cruel mirage. But as the seasons changed, so did my perception, revealing the fault lines of our mismatched souls. He was the wrong puzzle piece, forcing himself into spaces where he didn't fit. And I, foolishly, tried to mould myself to his edges. The pain of loving the wrong person is a silent ache-an ache that gnaws at your spirit, eroding the very essence of who you are. It's the realisation that you've been watering a barren tree, hoping for blossoms that will never come. Yet, I clung to him, desperate for validation, afraid of the void that would follow if I let go. But life has a way of surprising us. In the quiet aftermath of heartbreak, when tears blurred my vision, I stumbled upon a different kind of love. It wasn't loud or tempestuous; it was a gentle whisper-a warm breeze that carried away the debris of shattered dreams. 𝓓𝓮𝓿 appeared like a sunrise after a storm, illuminating the corners of my wounded heart. He was the right puzzle piece missing half of my soul. His laughter was a melody that resonated with mine, and his touch ignited constellations within me. We built a love that didn't need mending, for it was whole from the start. In his arms, I found solace, and in his eyes, I glimpsed eternity. The pain of loving the wrong person prepared me for the miracle of finding the right one. It taught me that scars can heal, and broken hearts can bloom anew. Now, as I stand on the threshold of forever, hand in hand with the one who fits seamlessly into my existence, I honour the past wrong turns, the tears, and the silent battles. For they led me to this love that feels like coming home.

"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
