All I want in return is for them to appreciate my effort, to reciprocate it by being someone I can rely on. But of course, they won't ever do the same. It's all for the business. Never genuine. 

But you know what, I tend to see the bigger picture. I do have a gleam of positivity, albeit dimming each passing day. I know that I will keep going, not because of the toxic minority, but for the betterment of others. Because they need my service. 

I have the blessing to be around good people, amidst the minority who would do this. I take pride in knowing that I have the best people to surround me. Hence, if I detect betrayal, again and again, I will no longer hesitate to leave.

This whole situation teaches me to be more assertive, and I'm finding this life lesson a meaningful one. So don't fret my friends, all this will help you become a better version of yourself.

And if you ever wonder why I left, it's because I realised my true worth. You were never worth my time in the first place.
