Ever since Stelle was eleven, the world felt like it was caving in on her. Her grandfather, the only person who truly understood her, was gone, and with his passing, her life unraveled. Branded as the black sheep of the family, she became the outcast, the disappointment, the girl no one wanted to be around.
Desperate to prove her worth, she clung to academic validation like a lifeline, chasing perfect grades in hopes of finally being seen, finally being enough. But no matter how much she achieved, the emptiness remained. She begged for love, for recognition, for something, anything that would fill the aching void inside her.
Crying became second nature, disappointment a familiar companion. And just when she thought she had escaped the cycle of pain, she found herself trapped once again in the very situations she swore she would never return to.
This is Stelle's story of struggle, of longing, and of finding a way to break free from the chains of her past. Will she ever learn that she is more than just the girl who begs, who cries, who suffers? Or will she remain forever lost in the shadows of her own pain?
