Eirlys Williams is the child of misfortune. That’s what people always labeled her. 

Her abusive father killed her mother due to her infidelity with another man, creating a permanent scar in her heart. People come and go in her life, but she remains in the same place, with her indelible trauma.

"You deserve to be beaten! Who made you a child born from a murderer and a sl*t?!"

"Your existence itself is a sin!"

"Do us a favor and go die!"

She shuts her heart to deflect the pain, hurt, and sadness that constantly following her. However, to shut one's pain, means one also shut their happiness. Constant abuse throughout the years has made the girl's heart grow cold and numb. 

However, her brief encounters with the Gardners sparks a new page in her life. 

"That's very kind of you. But then, I will be worried if you go home alone."

"Don't be so reckless next time! You are a girl!"

"Big sister, please become my wife in the future!"

She could slowly feel all of her emotions coming back to her heart. The pain, joy, sadness, hope, anger, awe, and even love. This time, she vows to protect her heart with all her might. 

However, the Gardners have secrets they don't want other people to know. A secret that could put Eirlys in danger. Can Eirlys overcome the hardship that comes from regaining her emotions back?

This is a story of an adolescent girl, trying to find a place where she belongs.

Until Fate Break Us Apart

The sky had gotten darker. I didn't intend to stay for too long. I should wrap up this conversation soon. However, before I had a chance to open my mouth, Alex had talked first.

"Don't you wish for a happy future? I heard from Victoria that you have suffered a lot of injustice just to graduate safely from your school."

As much as I wished for Victoria not to run her mouth recklessly, I was also aware of the fact that Alex had a way of knowing even without Victoria telling him everything, so I simply nodded my head in response.

"If you have me watching your back, don't you think that wish could be fulfilled more easily?"

Of course, I also knew about this. I understood the circumstances very well. However, precisely because of that, I feel disinclined to do it.
