Description
"His name is Cloud and his eyes are gray. But clouds should never be gray---they should always be clear, and not gray, because it brings trouble." - Risks and reasons do not go well together, and Freesia Fuentabella was aware of that. Within her years of living, she had always believed that the loss of reasons made all things questionable. Nobody wanted to live in an unreasonable world, anyway. It was full of uncertainty, and she doesn't like it. But she was eager to risk it. She was eager to risk understanding how uncertain and unreasonable the longing in her heart was. She was eager to bet her life so she could feel the familiar sense of anxiousness and fear. It gave her thrill. It gave her a sense of control, and she had always wanted to be in control. But when a man approached her and told her that he knew her, Freesia knew that she shouldn't have risked being bothered by him. Because out of all the questions that she had been risking to ask, she had no power to ask anything about the longing she felt when she saw him. Besides, why would she ask a reason why was he named Cloud even though his eyes were gray? The question sounded nonsense, and Freesia doesn't like nonsensical things... unless it mattered.
