Chapter 1
At night I look at the sky and it seems everything is same. Old stars, old moon, everything just the way it was yesterday. But when I look at my life, everything's changed, nothing same.
It's been a year since I moved to New York city.
I am here but still somehow I feel I'm stuck in the past.
I remember that day very clearly.
It was a summer day. Me and Jade were at the beach. I was wearing a blue bikini and Jade was in his shorts. His tanned chest and toned muscle felt amazing against my hand. He was holding me in his arms and saying the loveliest things to me, when I looked in his eyes I felt warmth.
But that woman's word, I can never forget.
I was lost in jade's arm and suddenly I heard a woman voice shouting "how can you do this to me? you said you love me? It was all a lie? huh? tell me, you sick bastard"
She kept throwing punches on Jade.
I couldn't believe my ears. I tried to break through her punches and said "What are you saying? he's my boyfriend and I know him. he's not who you think."
She replied very aggressively "Really? Let me show you the picture from last night only?"
She opened her phone and there it was, he was lying on the bed with her and kissing her.
I couldn't believe my eyes. I felt betrayed and cheated.
I instantly left. There was shouting in the background but I couldn't understand a single word. My mind was numb. I trusted him so much with everything I have had. But what did he do? There was immense pain in my heart. I was heartbroken tears kept falling.
I took a cab and left.
After a day of crying and with his constant calls I broke my phone. My mom witnessed my devastated state. And that day only I left for my aunt's farm house.
After a month I left for Newyork.
I got qualified for New york University but I decided not to accept but why not? I shouldn't have delayed anyway because of a boy. But I did.
Good thing I didn't lose the opportunity.
Today sitting in this park looking at the sky I couldn't help but think of that day. I was miserable and today after a year I feel healed, little at peace.
