"How many times do I have to get hurt in order to feel loved?" A question that most people ask in the nothingness.

Dawn laughs at how the sky seems to symphatize with her right now. As her tears trickle down nonstop, so does the strong pouring rain.

Wrapped in her thick blanket, Dawn Salvallion, wallowed in disappointment. Who would have thought that for the second time, she would get her heart broken and end a long years of friendship, because of falling in love. The pain she's feeling right now is twice, as her mind keeps tormenting her. This situation is way too familiar. Like scene in a movie that has been replayed. Only, the male lead has changed.

"Had I known he'll avoid me like this, I wouldn't have dreamt of confessing,"

She murmured to herself.

"Well, at least I wasn't laughed at and backstabbed like the first one did. But still, I'm way too beautiful to be rejected. The audacity of these animals, "

" Am I actually really beautiful? If I am, why did they reject me? Maybe my personality sucks? But I got along with people really well. The wealth may be the problem. But I have money though. Gaaaah"

Dawn gripped her hair out of frustration and rolled on the bed. She kicked the air, punched her pillow, and bit her blanket really hard.

She's panting after that tantrum but at least she let out some steam.

The thought that she can no longer hang out with her bestfriend make her heart pang with ache. The tears that once stopped, flowed again. All their memories together flashed back, making Dawn sob even more.

If you can't reciprocate my feelings, would it be bad to just stay as friends? Is avoiding me really necessary?

Dawn thought.

Is falling in love with your bestfriend a crime?

Blue skies mirroring the color of the ocean, is what welcomed Dawn. The salty smell of the breeze teases her nose. The white sand suck her feet, seemingly wanting her to stay.

Months of working like a slave for the company rewarded Dawn a month long vacation. Good for her, she's been reassigned to another branch located in North Caxost, two miles away from the love that broke her heart.

"Haaah!"

Fresh start. This is what she needs. This city will be her new home. No going back.
