If only I had known

If only I had known
*Title: If Only I Had Known*

In the quiet solitude of her dimly lit room, surrounded by echoes of a life that could have been, Amaka murmured to herself, "If only I had known..."

If only I had known that leaving him would lead to a lifetime of regret, I would have stayed.

If only I had known that the grass wasn't greener on the other side, I would have tended to my own garden.

If only I had known that true love was worth every battle, I would have fought with all my might.

Amaka’s mind drifted back to the day she first met Emmanuel, her first love. They were young, wild, and filled with the boundless energy of youth. Their love was untainted, and their hearts brimmed with hope. But as the years rolled on, doubts began to creep in, and fears slowly overshadowed their joy. Allowing her insecurities to take the lead, Amaka made the heartbreaking decision to walk away.

The years passed, leaving Amaka with a life filled with "what could have beens." She measured every relationship against what she once had with Emmanuel, but none ever came close. The painful truth settled in far too late—true love is rare, and she had let hers slip away.

As tears traced silent paths down her cheeks, Amaka made a promise to herself: if fate ever granted her a second chance, she would cling to it with everything she had and never let go. But for now, all she could whisper was, "If only I had known..."
