weeks have passed
gray and anika have become a well-known subject at school
why were they together?
they're so different
gray is sweet, innocent, and caring
anika is reckless, blunt, and heartless
different
gray and anika were far from lovers
gray was holding onto a dream
anika was holding onto a memory
different, and the same
they may love each other
but their love was far from affection
and closer to selfishness
