What is love?There are lots of definition of love, lots of versions, different meanings, different phases but what does it take to conquer true love? At this point of time, does true love really exist?
I was inspired by Louisa May Alcott's novel Little Women. It is a lot similar with my story but instead of girls, the characters in my short story were boys. The characters in my story have different personalities that may compliment each other's differences or completely destroy their bonds as brothers. Another thing is that my characters were metaphors on different issues and problems our country has been facing recently.
