Over the next few days, Debbie sought out ways to keep herself grounded. She started journaling, pouring her thoughts onto paper whenever they felt too overwhelming.Writing helped her make sense of her emotions, giving her a
safe space to process the pain Pasco had left behind.She also began going for evening walks, letting the fresh air
clear her mind. The physical activity, though simple, helped ease the tension in her body.
At the café, she struck up conversations with a few regular
customers. They were small, casual exchanges, but they reminded her that life existed outside of her heartbreak.
Each day, she felt a tiny spark of hope. The ache in her chest didn't disappear overnight, but it began to dull.
