As I opened my eyes and took a peek at the dark sea below me, I could see nothing but a dull pitch-black hollow with a strange current drawing me forward. I soon became unable to think of anything, numbness disseminated all my senses.

Before long I found myself on the edge of the balcony, as I took a deep breath, I closed my eyes, emptied my mind and could only feel the wind and the smell of the sea. I couldn't help but put on a smile and wait to be taken to a place free of anyone. I slowly leaned forward feeling gravity pulling my body. Within the moment a sudden aggressive force yanked my body to the ground. I got up to the sharp pain and looked up towards the source.

"That's it? You are just going to give up and kill yourself just like that? How Pathetic tch!"

A tall, wicked-looking guy looking down on me with piercing, golden eyes as if a beast dominating its prey. Hearing and seeing a stranger hurt and insult me gave me an overwhelming shock. ".... Huh?"

After a bitter silence, he bends down staring straight into my eyes with his fierce golden eyes.

"How shameless, tch! You would rather flee than fight for yourself??!"

Words like poison and stares as sharp as a piercing knife. "Your own twin sister stole everything from you, turning everyone against you, making you lower than a maid, do you have no pride?" he chuckled in a humiliating tone.

"Y...you do not know anything! W...who are you to speak like this to me anyway?!" Managing to get back up and confront his rude behaviour. Before knowing my cheeks have flooded in uncontrollable tears as I struggled to grasp for air.

"Even if you deny it, your tears don't lie do they?" He questioned with a grin.

"What do you want from me?!" I shouted at him in fury while wiping my tears off.

"Woah, Woah! Calm down, I'm just trying to he-"

"You're not helping so just get out of here!" I cut him off.

No longer having the patience to bear, I jerked up and headed back inside.

"So you're not gonna kill her?"

The world froze, my vision blurring and my heart beating loudly. Overwhelming thoughts engulfing my mind and soul.

"Not an impossible method huh? Since you didn't say anything then it's possible."

His malicious and provocative smirk flamed unfathomable ferocity. Spotting a vase to the right I snatched and tossed it at his face. Unfortunately, he dodged it...

"What's your problem! If you are looking for a murder, go find someone else! I love my sister and that's all it matters!" I screamed out at him whilst dashing to my room and shoving people aside. On the way, I met the last person I wanted to see. 

Stella.
