A/N: inspired by the tiktok trend. Possible new short series?

•••

It's been 2 years since I turned 16 and everyone around me, one by one, have found their soulmates and have seen colour. Whereas me on the other hand is stuck with a black and white canvas. I'm honestly not surprised, I grew up unloved by my biological parents why should my love life be anything different.

Now 18 and starting a new fresh far life away from my toxic household and hometown. I chose NYU and ironically chose to do a degree in the theatrical arts and music as well as another degree in politics and law. Double degree. I've kept my head down my entire schooling period and the hard work has finally paid off.

I head towards my first theatrical class of the year and as I get closer to my classroom I hear musicians playing "Still Into You", the lead singer extremely talented just from hearing him, it's such a unique tone.

I open the doors and see the live performance right in front of me. The lead singer catching my eye immediately, strumming the guitar fiercely.

"Cause after all this time..." he lets go of the guitar and grips onto the microphone with both hands and turns to look at me, "...I'm still into you."

And suddenly something just bursted inside me like fireworks in my chest and suddenly my vision was splatted and enriched with all colours and shades I could possibly imagine and I looked around in awe taking in all the possible colours I could see. This was beyond what I imagined.

I can see colour.

Oh. My. God. I can see colour!!

But the events that followed was no fairytale happy ending.
