PROLOGUE Thousands or even millions of people are suffering from pain. No one to talk to, having trust issues and they only see the cruelty and unfair treatment in the world. They can't seem to find someone to lean on. They've got no one to listen. Those are the people who tend to have lower self-esteem because of their past experiences that made them think of being close to other people are just so humiliating. They'll just befriend you so they could benefit and get the attention of the others. To gain the spotlight. Those people actually want to learn how to love but how could they love other people when they can't even love theirselves? I am lou. I'm just one of those million people who's having an unfair treatment in the world. When you saw me, you can tell that no one would ever want to be with me. There were always tears left in my eyes. When you look into my eyes, you could see the inner me. You could see how miserable I am. You could clearly tell yourself that when your with me, people would only criticize you. I wanted to be "one of the girls" who always got the attention. Who always have the spotlight. Who shines through darkness. With smiles painted on their faces. But how could I be? When I doesn't even fit to their standards. Until one day, I saw a guy. His dazzling eyes, his lips that smiles up until his ears, his bright white teeth, and his looks got the attention of my eyes. Not only me, but also the people around gave him the spotlight. As he walks into the street, he effortlessly could share the vibe of happiness to the people he passes through. His smiles could affect other people. I could see as I stare that he was as fake as other people and will end up hurting and looking down to girls like me. Without even realizing that he was in front of me. Smiling. That's the start of our two different worlds, collide.
