It was time to assert my independence, to reclaim my own identity that had been overshadowed by our toxic relationship.

she said, tilting her head. I didn’t respond. “It’s good,” she added after a moment. “Like you’re finally coming into your own.” I looked at her, then at my tea, and waited. Because with Serena, compliments always came with knives. And sure enough, she twisted one a second later. “You’re not… thinking about getting the surgery again, are you?” Her tone was soft—too soft.

She continued her life in Madrid, came back to work in the restaurant, tried experimenting with the new recipe but she couldn't seem to concentrate on the job.

I'm no longer that happy, cheery, carefree person you knew. I'm just the broken version of her." She finished after a while, and Damien could only stare at her without saying a thing. Another stroke of hurt and pain flash in his eyes, and he parted his lips to say something but she beat him to the chase.

“Please, everyone is attacking my weight today!” Her cousin laughed. “You deserve it.” One aunt held both her cheeks dramatically. “This girl left us for romance and returned for peace.” Mr. Laurent muttered from behind, “A very expensive lesson.” Everyone laughed again.
