"But for now, here I stand, like I do every year actually on this night. As cool as the calm before the storm and as patient as a spider waiting for its prey to hit the web it's spun. Dead still like my cold, cruel heart." This night strikes three years for her. Will it change for the better or for the worse leading to the fourth year?

She doesn't give a damn. A flirtatious force to be reckoned with, who can cut a man down in an instant with comebacks that make them come back for more. A stone cold bitch in the eyes of many & a sarcastic, shady vixen in others. She is a little mystery all rolled into one or so it seems...

However, her ways came to hunt her down & bite her in the arse when the universe decided to have far better plans. Shaking the unshakeable in the aftermath that followed one unfortunately, fortunate night she met this guy...

Three years on, she is at war with her demons while being haunted by a ghost who doesn't know how to leave, which finds her questioning both her current & previous sanity along with the validity of her past & present feelings. Join her on her quest of soul searching as you both figure out what her life was & what it is now, with & without that guy.

Who is she? Who does she think she is? Just you wait & see, but the question is; are you capable & up to the task to see her for who she truly is? 

Actions can speak louder than words but may fall short. Words sometimes carry more strength, however; can be cheap &/or wasted depending on the speaker &/or the recipient & their mindset/intent. In rare events, both words & actions mirror one another... Appearances are often deceiving & everybody has their own opinion: After all; everyone's a critic, but more importantly; "there's always more than one side to every story..." you just have to be capable of listening to them all... As they say;

"There's always more than what meets the eye..."
