Description
In the tapestry of my life, I am Scarlet Blythe Arellano, aged 16. Kindness flows through me effortlessly, as does the comfort of wealth. Yes, I'm regarded as alluring, tall enough, fair-skinned, and blessed with beauty, as the whispers around me suggest. But in matters of the heart, there's an ache that cuts deep-I am without a lover. Why? Because my heart belongs to only one person, someone I've yearned for tirelessly. Once upon a time, I had a steadfast companion, a friend from childhood. We were playmates, confidants, practically siblings. But one fateful day, he vanished, leaving behind a chasm of loneliness, etching my saddest childhood memory. Yet, amidst the shadows of loss, there stood another, a persistent presence. Irritating yet genuine, this soul filled the void within my longing heart. In the narrative of our love story, my long-lost friend was cast as the antagonist. But he misconstrued his role. To me, he was the leading man, and we were the protagonists of this tale. He, with his presence, transformed my very being. And to my long-lost friend: The past is a chapter closed. There's no return to what once was. But should you find your way back, know that you'll be met with a simple greeting: "Hi! Welcome back!"
