Life after high school was supposed to be the most exciting experience, full of adventure for Daisy. That was what she presumed it would be. Instead, it was a world of new, strange, and unimaginable experiences.

Daisy was a naive, inexperienced, and ambitious young lady who wanted to prove a point of her sexuality to herself and her friend. 

Proof of her sexuality bonded her with a young guy from another continent. She became a mother at the age of 17, without knowing where to find the father of her baby.

FATED BOND

　　I got an admission into the University of Nevada, two months to Ellah's first birthday. I had always wanted to study English related courses to improve my skills at writing. Even though I had lost hope on ever becoming a great author someday, Nina wouldn't hear that of me. And Larry too.


　　Ever since the incident with him, our relationship with each other has been so casual. Nina noticed the coldness and questioned me.


　　I told her Larry said he likes me and she urged me to let it work.


　　I didn't expect that from her. I thought she was going to support my decision of remaining single, if not for anything but for my daughter. But Nina was against the fact that I rejected him, and my lost interest in writing.


　　"I've never seen Larry this serious since I've known him, Dee", she had told me. "Except for when work comes knocking, though."


　　The way she called me Dee reminded me of Maria. She used to call me Dee-dee.
