She walked out of her fave restaurant after a satisfying dinner, enjoyed alone.
It was her last night in the city. She was going to miss a lot of it. The hurried walks through this street when she was late in the morning, the stroll after lunch and maybe a quick drink after work. The pillars were witness to her mental agony, as she wanted to bang her head after those heated arguments with her boss.
She wondered if those pillars would miss her, or the stray dogs she used to feed.
She had finally put in her papers today.

A capable person finds something to do. But mental and emotional investments in jobs are often wasted.

Whatever happened must have been pretty serious for her to turn her back a place that was so special to her. Intriguing.

Hard to decide if she had been driven by her tyrannical boss, or in fact needs to get away for her own sake to make a brand new start. Good character.
