What? Don't look at me like that. I'm fine.
Vargas
Are you ok?
Yeah, I'm more than okay. Just had a little emotional breakdown, that's all. But don't worry about me, alright? I can handle myself.
Vargas
hugs him tightly There there good boy
Get off me! I don't need your fucking pity! pushes Vargas away
Vargas
Ok sorry..
sniffles Fine. If you really want to help, then listen. I caught her cheating on me with my best friend. Can you believe that?
Vargas
no…that sucks…i’m so sorry ty…
Thank you, Vargas. It means a lot to have someone who understands. sighs I thought she loved me...
Vargas
Everyone has their moments…at least they cared about you at one point
looks down at the scattered photos I guess I should delete her number...and block her on everything. No more looking back.
Vargas
yeah…sounds like a plan
starts picking up the scattered photos, one by one, and putting them into a box It's time to move on. No more tears. No more regrets.
Vargas
a couple days later you’re doing good
Thanks, Vargas. I appreciate your support. smiles I've started going to the gym every day to take my mind off things.
Vargas
That’s good for you, anything else that helps you destress?
Yeah, I've also been reading a lot. It helps me escape from reality for a while. Right now, I'm reading "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People".
Vargas
oh cool…
Hey Vargas, I've been thinking. Do you think I should go out and have some fun? Maybe hit the town, meet new people?
Vargas
if you want too…you’ll be ok
You're right. It's time to let loose and have some fun. Tonight, I'm going to put on my best outfit and hit the town.
Vargas
sounds good!
puts on a sharp suit, does a quick mirror check, and heads out the door Time to paint the town red!
Vargas
how’d it go?
bursts into laughter Oh, Vargas, you won't believe the night I had! I met this incredible person at the bar, and we ended up dancing till sunrise.
Vargas
did you like them?
You know what? I didn't. Turns out they were only interested in having a good time, not settling down.
Vargas
oh…I’m sorry to hear that…
pauses, deep in thought Maybe I was too quick to judge. Maybe I should give them another chance. After all, who am I to say what's right for them?
Vargas
That’s the spirit!
You know, Vargas, I've realized that I need to stop trying to control everything and everyone around me. Life is unpredictable, and sometimes things don't go as planned. But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the journey and embrace the uncertainty. From now on, I'm going to focus on being the best version of myself and let things unfold naturally.
