September came, and with it freedom. Aurora returned home, strong in her convictions, certain of every choice, finally able to hide in full light. She learned to enjoy food, she caught up with the superficiality that surrounded her, taking on the features of those who had never accepted her. The new school became the perfect setting to perform as an actress, to compete with that role that in short, in the eyes of all, became her nature.
But there was another Aurora who in a dark corner of the soul waited, every day, to be able to come out. It happened at night, when her unidentified body was alone. She often went out for a few moments in the bathrooms of a bar, a restaurant, a nightclub, or any other place where the actress forced her to go.
At eighteen Aurora became a woman at the hands of the stupidest boy who ever walked the earth, and after him, there were three other gentlemen who were content with a fake smile and dull eyes. The thread that united the suitors, beyond the emptiness, was the suffering that the exiled Aurora felt every time she returned home, within the walls of her bedroom. She felt dirty, violated, throwing up even more to try to reject the sense of inadequacy, the unpleasant desire she feels when she realizes she is putting her sentimental expectations inside a container unable to contain.
She reached the age of nineteen and she met Marco, to whom she unfortunately became too attached. Not even him understood anything about her, but a great merit, later, will have to be recognized.
Here begins the true story of Aurora.
From here, she takes her first steps towards the one who eagerly awaits to see her.
