Lilly, a young girl with a kind heart facing insurmountable challenges, found herself in a harsh world where love seemed like a distant memory. With this cold reality surrounding her, she tried to make sense of why she felt so unloved and why she couldn't love.

It was a mystery to her. Of course she wants to know what it feels like to love or be loved and not just familia love. she wants to feel every aspect of it, she wants to know what its like to be held in strong, protective arms telling you everything will be ok, she wanted to know what it felt like to get forehead kisses, she wants to know what it feels like to be cuddled to someone's chest, she wanted to know what it feels like to be someones number one choice.

But somehow, Lilly knew she was asking too much of this world. No matter how much she yearned for this connection, she couldn't bring herself to voice her deepest desires. In her heart, she understood that finding such warmth and affection in her current surroundings seemed like a far-fetched dream. Yet, she remained hopeful, continuing her search for the love she thinks she needs.
