We are taught from a young age that psychotic substances cause the brain to lose track of reality. Isn't the same thing that happens in the aftermath of a broken heart - a series of hallucinations, painful memories that push us to wrong decisions? What happens then? How do you cope when you're nothing more than a cigarette, a quick fix for someone? Is there anything that can cure the pain? Is there a person who can heal a broken heart?
Catherine asks herself these questions so often that she is no longer sure that she will find answers. Is it possible for a person to cope with the terrible reality? The day her heart was broken was the day she met a men in the bar who changed her. Only time will tell who is the guy she met and what is going to happen. Will it be one night stand or the one?

The Art of Unloving
Love is beautiful, intoxicating, and all-consuming-until it isn't. When she first met him, the world seemed to realign, as if every moment before had been leading her to him. Their love was the kind that existed in stolen glances, whispered promises, and the soft hum of a song playing in the background of their most intimate moments. But love, as she learned, does not always stay. And when it leaves, it takes pieces of you with it. Now, with nothing left but memories and an aching heart, she turns to the one thing that has never abandoned her-her words. Through the pages of her journal, she unravels the story of their love, tracing the moments that built them and the ones that broke them. She writes of the first touch, the lingering embraces, the fire in their kiss, and the silence that eventually replaced it all. Each page is a step toward healing, a reckoning with the past, and a surrender to the truth she's been too afraid to admit: sometimes, loving means learning how to unlove. But unloving is an art, one she is still trying to master. Told through poetic prose and raw emotion, The Art of Unloving is a poignant journey of love, loss, and self-discovery. It is a story for those who have loved deeply and lost painfully, for those who are still picking up the pieces, and for those who believe that even in heartbreak, there is hope.

Like there's something under my skin only he is capable of bringing out. He's manipulative, twisted, and completely wrong in every way. I hate him.
