 Don't Let Anyone Take Away Your Light! 

  

She wiped her tears and tried to get herself together right after an argument with the guy she was seeing. He had just left her place. A few minutes later her cell phone rang with a nice cool beat. She hesitated to answer but she picked it up anyway. Her friend Jessica was calling.

Nattalie: Hi Jessica
Jessica: Hi girl, how are you?
Nattalie: I'm ok, she said with a soft sad voice
Jessica: What's wrong?
Nattalie: hmm, nothing, just not feeling well.
Nattalie: I was calling to see if you wanted to meet me for coffee.
Nattalie: I don't think it's a good time
Nattalie: I think it is, you need to tell me what's going on.
Nattalie: Ok,What cafe do you want to meet at?
Jessica: I'm at the mall now, so the one in the mall.
Nattlie: Ok, I'll be there in an hour
Jessica: Ok, sounds good, see you soon sweetie

She got up and she decided to look her best because whenever she looks good, she feels good. So she showered, fixed her hair, and put light make up on. Then she headed to the closet and pulled a pretty white dress.She paired it with a  black blazer. She grabbed her light white scarf and wrapped it around her neck. Then she reached to her pink shoes and bag. Eventually, She left to the mall.

At the cafe

She saw Jessica waving her hand to get her attention.Then she walked towards her table.

Nattalie: Hi dear
Jessica: Hey sweetie, you look really good, but there is sadness in your eyes, what's going on?
Natalie:  Well, I had an argument with him.
Jessica: I can't believe you are still seeing him. What did he do this time?
The waiter interrupted them and brought their coffee that Jessica had ordered a few minutes before Nattalie arrived.
Waiter: Here is your coffee ladies. Enjoy
Nattalie & Jessica: Thank you
Nattalie was still silent and kept stirring her sugar & cream in her coffee.
Natalie: He called me fat!
Jessica: What?!! That's absurd! You need to dump him now. He is not good for you.
Nattalie: I don't know, do you think I'm fat!? I probably have gained five pounds or so recently. Oh my god, I'm fat!
Jessica: please don't let him make you believe this big lie! For god's sake, you are 105 lbs, which is too skinny for your height!!! even if you were fat, so what!? Who is he to say anything like that to you!? He is trying to bring you down to make himself feel better. He is just a miserable human being. Please don't let him have that control over you.
Nattalie: I don't know, I really like him, but I feel like he really brings me down all the time. I don't think he likes me as much as I like him. He just keeps leading me on.
Jessica: He doesn't even want to commit to you, you deserve better girl. You are beautiful inside and out.  I need to see your real self again. You haven't been the same since you met him.
Nattalie: You are right! I'm going to start a new chapter of my life which doesn't include him. Thank you so much for your support girl!
Jessica: You are welcome love. Just promise me to never let him or anyone take away your light!
