A promise to the self

It was raining as she looked outside the window of the café. She'd always loved the rain since her childhood, but from that unfortunate day, the rain had only worsened her wound in the heart. It is not just because her 3 years of relationship had broken but she also lost her best friend, her companion in the ups and downs of her life.

"It's already been a year and now I think it's enough. I had enough of it. I gave this relationship everything I could ever give. We were just not meant to be together. I deserve to be happy as him. I promise myself that from now I won't think about him. I won't hurt myself anymore. Love has no place in my heart. There are just my family and my dreams." she said, looking outside the window.

Angela is a musician in one of the most famous bands in the whole New Yours. She has always wanted to be a musician since

childhood and worked hard for it. Her father's company is one of the top 3 companies in the country. He is indeed a sharp-minded CEO to maintain his company's position in the market but he is weaker in relationship matters. The priority was always been his company over his family. But he never stopped Angela from chasing her dreams. As Angela was his elder and capable child, he did want her to be the CEO of his company in the future but after he knew about her dream, he did not force her although she was always welcome if she ever wants to change her mind.

She stood up to leave the café, and just then she got a call which she answered immediately. It was from her stepmother, and she was crying on the phone. Her stepmother had always hated her from all her guts and she also didn't care about her. "What happened?", she asked emotionlessly to her. "J-J-Jim", her stepmother said and started crying again. As soon as Angela heard her stepbrother's name, she became concerned and immediately asked her, "What happened to Jim?" "P-Please come home fast, please", she said crying. Angela didn't care about her mother but she had always loved Jim as her family. She was 8 when he was born and she always took care of him as her real younger brother. Jim also loved her as his sister. They were not from the same mother but their bond was stronger than that of real siblings. She rushed into her car and drove as fast as she could. Her father was out of town for business, so she was the only one who could help her stepmother. She reached home and saw her stepmother sitting on the sofa and crying bitterly. She came towards her and asked her about her brother. She told her everything which had happened in the last half an hour, after which tears started flowing from her eyes.
