Chapter 18 A New Horizon

• The train station was bustling with the usual early morning rush. Commuters hurried to and fro, each absorbed in their own world, oblivious to the internal storm brewing within Natalie. She stood on the platform, clutching her suitcase, her heart pounding with a mix of anxiety and anticipation. The decision to leave the city was not an easy one, but it was a necessary step toward healing and rebuilding her life.
• As the train pulled into the station, its arrival marked the beginning of a new chapter for Natalie. She boarded, found a window seat, and settled in, watching as the cityscape began to blur and fade into the distance. The rhythmic clatter of the train on the tracks was a comforting background noise, allowing her to reflect on the tumultuous events of the past few months.
• Her thoughts drifted to Daniel. The pain of his sudden disappearance was still raw. She had tried countless times to reach him, but every effort had been met with silence. The uncertainty of his fate gnawed at her, and the lack of closure was a wound that refused to heal. But as the train carried her further away from the city, she resolved to focus on the future and the new life growing inside her.
