Rayan stumbled through the door of his apartment, his mind reeling from the events of the day. As he stepped inside, his eyes landed on the framed photograph of him and Sarah, a bittersweet reminder of the life they had once shared.
Collapsing onto the couch, Rayan reached for the frame, his fingers tracing the edges as memories flooded his mind. He could still see the way Sarah's eyes had sparkled with joy as she smiled up at him, the blue dress he had gifted her hugging her curves in all the right places.
"Why?" he whispered, his voice cracking with emotion. "Why did you have to leave me, Sarah?"
Rayan's chest ached with the weight of his regret. Should he have not told Sarah about his lost job? Would that have made a difference, or would it have only pushed Sarah further away?
Tears welled in his eyes as he shook his head, torn between anger and resignation. "Its fine that you left, Sarah," he muttered, his grip tightening on the frame. "It's better this way."
A surge of determination rose within him, and he sat up, a newfound fire burning in his gaze. "No, this isn't the end. I won't tolerate this. I'll show both you and Billiard that I'm not someone to be trifled with. I'll grow greater than I ever was."
Rayan set the photograph aside, his mind racing with a plan to turn his life around. The path ahead may be uncertain, but one thing was clear - he was no longer willing to accept the status quo. This was his chance to prove everyone wrong, to build something truly remarkable.
With a renewed sense of purpose, Rayan rose from the couch, his steps filled with a determined stride. The future may have been shrouded in darkness, but Rayan was ready to carve his own path, no matter the obstacles that stood in his way.
