In the name of vows

                 CHRISTINE's POV

“I am sorry but I can no longer do this anymore” And by this I mean this Relationship. You have been too busy for me and I feel you appreciate your work more than you do me and I do not deserve that. So I think it’s best we end this now.

I stared at him while he ripped my heart to pieces throwing all our memories away and goingaway on the basis of “me being too busy” I just want to be the CEO how is that being too busy.

It’s been One Month since Brian left without looking back. It has been hard but yet I have been healing and working through it. Thankful for work that has been a great source of distraction. Everybody has heard of the breakup and although I know they have questions but I like the fact that nobody has choose to say anything about it they are just walking on eggshells around me and I think I actually appreciate that because I am not ready to confront those feelings at all.

Eight years of commitment,8 years of good memories. We have been together since College where we met at business school. Brian walked into the class being the golden boy and all and naturally I was immediately attracted to him because him being the golden boy I had to keep my cool because he will definitely be flocked by different girls and even though I was the daughter of one of the top conglomerates in business still did not take away my shyness.

Was ready to hide my feelings until we were paired for an assignment and then we started talking I do not know if to call it fate or coincidence but it was a beautiful love story from then on till we graduated and started working. I even helped set him up in a position in my dads business and everyone in my family loved him and we were planning for wedding till this bombshell.

I have always wanted to be the CEO of DREAMSPACE. I am currently the CFO but as rights of the only daughter and child to My parents I will say I am the rightful heir but I didn’t want that to be that situation I wanted everyone to see that I worked for that position and it did not just come from being “daddy’s little princess” because they all called me that and I will not deny I was a bit spoilt from my parents but I was still hardworking and also very determined to do it on my own.

For the past few months I will admit I have been quite busy with my job because I feel the time is coming near as my dad (The current CEO) is getting older and wants to retire although I know the main reason is so he can spend more time with his wife ( My mother) such an obsessed man and I love it for them. I want a love like theirs and I love my parents for raising me with so much love In their hearts and doing everything for me. My parents are my role models.

Brian was a dream come true and I thought I will finally get my Happy ending but he comes with “I have been you busy” what does that even mean? And he knows how I desperately wanted ceo position and all my dreams. I really thought he was supportive. I actually been feeling so sad but I refuse to confront those feelings.

It is a new day today and I am off to work to be busy again. I moved back to my parents house because I do not want to be alone and I basically lived with Brian because we all thought it was endgame. Even I thought so too oh well.

Frankly speaking I barely enjoy my interactions at work but I just have to suck up to it. I only have my “work bestie” she is my personal assistant but she has become a close friend and confidant to me also. Angela is such a beautiful soul though i have noticed she also has been walking on eggshells around me since the break up happened and frankly I appreciate it but I just still want her to say something about it probably that will be the breaking point for me to finally let me say all I have been feeling.

I get to work for another gloomy day to catch up and try my best so I can be seen as worthy for the CEO position finally. Less than few minutes I get to work I get a call from my actual Bestie Katy, she is a lifestyle influencer and a traveler. We have not caught up in a while due to my whole ghosting of everyone and trying to “heal”. So it does not come to a surprise when she asks about Brian but this time and first time since it happened I can finally admit “We broke up” and without tears or me breaking down into tears. That is progress I think ? Well she screams a lot of profanity and with various threats of wanting to “kill him” but I know it will be hard on her too because they were very close and she will be having to choose who to submit her loyalty to.

The call goes off after me asking about her work and diverting the whole break up topic and she giving me updates on her new “flavor” for the week during her travels but she ends with a promise to visit soon and I appreciate the call.

Angela comes to call me for a meeting in the boardroom and I am surprised because I was not expecting any meeting so but I pack my things and go either ways.

I step into the room and go take my seat and that is what when I do notice HIM sitting across me. What is He doing here ?
