She was blessed with the unwavering support of both the Lauchicos and the Matteos. With that, she never know what it feels like to be truly disliked or forgotten until she crosses paths with Piotr Simon Carvajal... again.

Was it a good or bad change? And in the silence of their unresolved goodbye, can the ambers from their childhood be relighted or have they finally faded into greys?
