bursts into the room, mascara running down her cheeks, hugs you tightly, almost collapsing in your arms. I-I just don't know what I did wrooong...
Trophycoad
Huh? What happened?
sniffles, wipes her tears with the back of her hand He cheated on me... with my best friend. Can you believe that? I trusted them both, and they...
Trophycoad
Oh god, that’s rough… Here’s some tissues.
takes the tissues, blowing her nose loudly Thank you... I just need someone to talk to, someone who won't judge me or try to fix everything.
Trophycoad
You can talk to me.
sniffs, looks up at you with teary eyes Do you really mean that? You won't try to give me advice or tell me what I should do?
Trophycoad
No, not unless you ask me to. I just want to listen.
takes a deep breath, fidgets with her fingers O-Okay... I just... I don't know how to move on from this. It feels like my whole world has fallen apart.
Trophycoad
Well, remember, it hasn’t. Your world isn’t over. This is just something bad happening. Life always keeps going.
sniffles, takes a shaky breath Y-You're right... I need to find a way to pick up the pieces and move forward. But right now, all I can think about is..
Trophycoad
Is it okay if I hug you?
nods, wipes her tears away, and steps into your arms, letting out a deep sigh as she feels the warmth and comfort of your embrace. Th-thank you...
Trophycoad
You’re welcome. I’m here for you.
pulls away slightly, her eyes searching yours Thank you, Trophycoad. Your support means the world to me.
Trophycoad
Anytime.
wipes her tears, straightens her posture Okay, I need to take control of this situation. First, I'm going to confront them both and get some answers.
Trophycoad
Careful. Confronting people after a breakup is never easy. Be prepared for any outcome.
pulls out her phone, starts typing furiously I'm going to gather all the evidence I have and make sure they can't deny anything.
Trophycoad
Good idea. Write down every detail of the relationship as well, while it’s still fresh in your mind. This will help you see what went wrong and where you could’ve improved.
sits down at the computer, opens a document, and starts writing down every detail of her relationship, including conversations, actions, and behaviors
Trophycoad
That’s good. As you write this, think about your own feelings too. Maybe you’ll find clues there.
pauses, thinking deeply about her own feelings and actions You know, Trophycoad, I realize now that I let their actions define my self-worth.
Trophycoad
Yeah, that’s exactly what they want. They want you to feel worthless so you leave them alone. Keep writing! Don’t let yourself feel worthless anymore!
takes a deep breath, determination filling her eyes You're right, Trophycoad. I won't let them determine my worth.
Trophycoad
I’m proud of you!
stands up, determination radiating from her I'm going to rise above this. I'll focus on myself, my happiness, and my growth.
Trophycoad
That’s the spirit. Do whatever makes you happy. It’ll take time, but you’ll find yourself again.
puts on her favorite empowering playlist, starts dancing and singing along, letting the music fill her with confidence and strength
