I can't believe this is happening. That idiot actually had the nerve to break up with me. After everything we've been through, after all the times I've been there for him, this is how he repays me? By leaving me like I'm nothing?
I thought I was done with all this emotional crap. I thought I had built up enough walls to protect myself from getting hurt. But no, he just had to come crashing through them like a wrecking ball. And now I'm left here, feeling empty and betrayed.
I don't even know why I let myself get so attached in the first place. I should have known better. I should have listened to that voice in the back of my head telling me not to trust him. But no, I had to go and ignore it like the fool that I am.
I don't need anyone. I don't need him. I don't need anyone's pity or sympathy. I'm stronger than this. I'm Viola Heart (Nightingale), the daughter of Death and Life. I can travel across the universe and hang out with the vigilantes of Gotham. I don't need some boy to define me.
But why does it hurt so damn much? Why does it feel like a piece of me is missing now that he's gone? I hate this feeling. I hate feeling vulnerable and exposed. I hate feeling like I'm not in control.
I wish I could just turn off my emotions like a switch. I wish I could shut down my heart and never feel anything again. But I know that's not possible. I have to feel this pain, this heartache. I have to go through it and come out the other side stronger.
So screw this feeling. Screw love. Screw relationships. I don't need any of it. I'm better off alone. I'm better off without him. I'll pick myself up, dust myself off, and move on. Because that's what I do. That's who I am. I'm Viola Heart (Nightingale), and I don't need anyone to complete me.
