Novel & Cerita My Disappointment Is Immeasurable

All I have to do is say one little word and I can lose myself in the fire that burns through my veins. But maybe there's a speck of decency in me somewhere because I can't do it. I pull back. For the second time tonight, I watch disappointment flood a man's eyes. "I can't," I say. "I'm sorry." He sits back. "The other guy?" I feel like all the energy's drained out of me now that he's a respectable distance away from me again. I cross my arms, suddenly cold. "No. I mean, partially yes." I clamber to my feet. "It's hard to explain."

But all Mia could remember was the pain. Mia didn’t say anything at first. She just stood there. She wasn't even sure how to respond to Ravenna. She may have forgiven them, but she couldn't just forget what happened and how devastated the situation left her. Even if Mia knew Ravenna may have meant whatever she just said, it felt empty to her. Like it was too late. And the apology would do nothing. Absolutely nothing. And then, before she could stop herself, the word just slipped out. "I was disappointed." It was so quiet, but it hit like a brick. Mia felt heat rise in her chest.

I’m finding it very difficult not to squirm in the face of my mate’s disapproval. Sinclair paces back and forth, growling wordlessly as he works through his thoughts. He doesn’t let me feel his emotions, but a few slip out, giving me flashes of anger, frustration and… heart wrenching disappointment. I’m shocked at how powerfully the last affects me. I’ve heard people who grew up in happy families say that disappointment can be worse than anger, something I’ve never understood until this moment. I didn’t believe anything could be more horrible than the violence and pain wrought by a person’s rage, I didn’t realize how different things are when love is involved… when a person is your entire wo

Everything about this project was becoming a headache. The Sheikh wanted proof. The lever was already under my name. The world was shifting beneath my feet. I had no room for sentiment or sympathy. Not now. Especially not for a girl I barely knew. A girl who should never have mattered. She kept crying into the floor and sometimes the tears hit the concrete with soft wet sounds. For some reason that annoyed me more than anything else. I rubbed my forehead and exhaled. I was truly, deeply disappointed. And I hated that I felt disappointment at all.

The heavyweight of shame is forcing me to keep my head down, making my shoulder slumped with disgrace and guilt. Here I am throwing away months of hard work. Here I am being nothing but a disappointment to every single person I love.

This entire exchange so foreign to me. Her cheeks reddened even more as I stared. “It’s okay, I can find someone else.” she said. I saw her face fall and she looked so disappointed that her initial assessment of me had been wrong. And for the life of me I couldn't understand why I felt a pang at her disappointment in me. “No.” The word left my mouth like a bullet, coming out sharp and vehement. “I assumed,” I said, and just stopped there, at a loss for words. I wasn’t sure if I was processing or apologising.

he replied, sounding almost dismissive. My jaw clenched, feeling a surge of anger and disappointment. "You disgust me, Brian. Truly. For all the hurt you’ve caused—deliberate or not—know that it will haunt you. Every decision you make, every regret you ignore, will eventually catch up with you. Mark my words, Brian," I told him, voice low but firm, filled with an unshakeable resolve.

I whispered. “Was I a disappointment, was that it?” Her voice trembled again, and I could hear every sentiment of doubt within her voice. "Was it not what you hoped it would be?" My stomach twisted at her words. How could she think that?! She truly believed she was not enough for me. She doubted that those incredible moments we had shared had been enough. My heart felt like it was shattering. I knew my girl had been treated badly before, and now I felt I was no better than the ones before me.

That careful control. That attempt to hide their reaction. And somehow… that hurt more. “I am sorry,” I whispered, my voice shaking now. “I thought… I thought I could…” My chest rose and fell unevenly as more tears slipped down. “I did everything right…” The words came out broken, fragile, barely held together. “But it is the same…” The fear I had buried came crashing back fully now, overwhelming everything else. “I am still…” I swallowed hard. “A disappointment.” Before the thought could settle any deeper, before I could fully fall into it…

He assured me that sometimes these things happened, that the human body could be enigmatic, prone to unexplained fluctuations. As I left the hospital, the weight of disappointment clung to me like an invisible cloak. The sterile corridors echoed with the hollowness of my despair, the cold walls a reflection of the emptiness I felt inside. I yearned for validation, for someone to acknowledge the magnitude of my struggle, but it seemed that the answers remained elusive. The journey back home was filled with a somber silence, the weight of unspoken questions pressing upon me. I stumbled through the front door, my steps faltering as a surge of emotions threatened to overwhelm me. The weight of t
