...I myself am sure that I didn't even ask to be born and live such a life. Don't get me wrong tho, I am content— am I really? Less talking about me, how about you?

...'I'm loved', said my sister before she leaves home for her dreams....

...Now, tell me, if you ever met these characters in my story. Will their statements be enough? No. It will not. That's why I tell you right now,...

...Those people might be special to you, and you are told that you're special to them as well. But when they are interrogated about who you may be, do you think they'll answer all of you?...
