1. Is This a Nightmare?

Diane"Br…break…break up?" Tears stung my eyes, and my throat went dry as I fought to get the words out of my mouth.But I shook off the feeling, shifting uncomfortably in my chair as I let out a bitter laugh. It had to be a joke. "Luca, I'm not in the mood for your jokes.”"I wish this was a joke, Diane, but I'm sorry…I really am,” he responded solemnly, avoiding my eyes.Each syllable of his words felt like a deep cut to my heart as I tried to comprehend the reason for his sudden decision. I wanted to say something, anything, but I was too shocked to find the right words. It seemed like my brain had stopped working for a minute."Why?" I asked him in a low, raspy whisper.This time he looked at me, and I could see sadness written all over his face.He didn't want this. Then, why was he doing it?He reached into his coat pocket, pulled out an envelope, and placed it on the table between us."I got an offer to work with globally recognized hoteliers,” he said, gesturing to the white

2. Roses Are Dead

DianeI woke up to bright light piercing into my eyes through my eyelids. I could hear the beeping of a monitor and the faint murmur of voices, tugging at my consciousness. My body felt very heavy like I was trying to move underwater, and every part of me ached like crazy. I opened my eyes, blinking slowly as I tried to make sense of where I was.“Diane? Diane, can you hear me?”A familiar voice cut through my hazy mind. I turned my head slowly, winging as the movement sent a sharp pain through my skull.There she was. My best friend, Julia, sat beside me, her face filled with a mix of worry and relief.“Julia,” I said, my voice was barely above a whisper and it sounded hoarse. My throat felt drier than sandpaper.“Oh, Thank God.” She leaned forward, wrapping her hand around mine. Her hand was warm and soft as it grounded me in a reality I wasn't sure I was ready to face.I glanced around the room, noticing and taking in the plain white walls and the smell of disinfectant that clung

3. Double Losses

LucaI woke up to the faint smell of cheap perfume, and the headache that pounded in my skull.For a moment, I kept my eyes closed, clinging to the sleep that was already fading away. But something was off. This didn’t feel right. The sheets smelled different—like floral body spray instead of the soft lavender scent that Diane loved.I groaned, squeezing my eyes as I tried to remember what had happened.The club.The vodka.The noise of too many people, the music so loud that I couldn't hear my own thoughts, and that had been the whole point.Then I felt the tickle of hair against my jaw.I opened my eyes in a small slit, and a flash of blonde crossed my sight.That's not Diane’s hair.Her hair was black, silky, and smelled like coconut. This hair was blonde and had the faint chemical scent of overused dye. My chest tightened, and my fingers, which had been absentmindedly brushing her shoulder, froze.And then she moaned.I sat up quickly, my heart pounding in my chest as I turned to

4. New Beginnings

DianeFIVE YEARS LATERThe AC was blasting fully, but it couldn’t quite ease the nervous heat simmering in my chest. I stood in front of the full-length mirror in my bedroom, staring at my reflection. The light cast a soft glow on my golden dress making it shimmer like molten gold as it hugged my curves in all the right places. The soft silk fabric felt smooth against my skin, but my mind was anything but calm.Tonight was the night. My night.I took a shaky breath, smoothing the fabric over my hips as I tried to gather my scattered thoughts. The board had decided months ago, but it was only now, at the charity gala, that the world would know I was officially the new CEO of Hope Horizons—the largest charity organization in the country. It was a dream I had fought tooth and nail for, a culmination of years of hard work, sacrifices, and tears. And yet, my nerves felt as fragile as glass.My hand trembled slightly as I reached for my shoes, a pair of gold stilettos that matched my d

5. A Queen and More

LucaDiane looked radiant in the champagne-gold dinner dress that slitted up her thighs, offering a teasing glimpse of her toned legs as she moved, and hugged her more enhanced curves with the dainty jewelry that adorned her neck and wrists, complimenting her glow.She looked different from the woman I used to know—the woman whose heart I had broken.She was poise and elegant; the type of woman that was almost unattainable.The look in her eyes.The way she spoke and moved around so gracefully—like a goddess.The perfectly rehearsed professional smile on her face was all enough to make me argue that the woman before me wasn't Diane but someone else.However, the mixture of anger and shock in her eyes as her gaze landed on me was enough proof that indeed it was her.My ex-girlfriend, and the only woman I had truly loved.The same woman I had walked away from was standing before me, and this time, it wasn't a fragment of my imagination.I knew I had broken her heart in a bad way, and th
