For some, flowers symbolizes beauty and modesty, and so does the golden child, Scarlet Lobelia.
Beautiful, intelligent, and elegant. Everyone adored her and the prestigious Laurente Family. But when the Laurente empire was left to the rags, the prestige and honor was dragged to the grave with her parents. And so she realized, she had to let the part of herself, the Flower of the Laurentes, be buried with everything that's lost.
She knew that flowers die down easily, one break and everything starts to wither. She figured out she had to be strong, but the demands were as hard as the moment she was losing everything.
But the darkness she always snub stayed firm and appeared again like bright sun beams for which gave life to the flower she once was. The flower rose again to an everlasting and divine foundation of her self.
But doubts are inevitable.
Can she still get the justice and vengeance her family deserves? Or will she forget about everything and just move on?
Will she accept the darkness that serves as her light? Or will she continue the path she chose which she deemed right for her peace of mind and continue?

YuanFen
What we have is just now. As long as she loves me. As long as she wants to be with me. As long as there is 'we'. I love her! But the rainbow is not just a blend of vibrant and bright colors. It doesn't even stay for a long period of time-- just enough for us to see and in a fleet of time is gone, leaving us wondering if it's real. A rainbow doesn't have black and white. It wasn't just like that. Same as love. Same as us. There were times that i want to give her up. Not because my love did fade, rather, my love is too much. Too much that letting her go is the only option left for her to choose me without hesitation, without guilt, freed of lies. I want her to grow, to weigh things as it is. I want her to make me feel that being with me is her choice. I want her to realize that i am hers and that she have to surrender herself to me as well. I want her to love me because that is the way she feels and not because it was the safest way. Being with her is paradise. It was a mixture of colored pastel. It was too vibrant to explain. But at a sudden twist of downs and ups, we are shaking. Loving her has become my weakness. The weakening thought of losing her when I fuck up is too much to run me insane. I'm overreacting perhaps. But being with her, means walking in a narrow-road of heaven. There's no security, no assurance. One wrong move, and I'll be slipping away. Just in the never ending pain of darkness, of solitude, of self-struggle. Loving her has become my addiction. I couldn't get enough of it. But so they say, what's too much can cause harm. Maybe I'm loving her too much that she finds it hard to breathe when i'm around. But yes, it is just a wishful thinking; things that I'll surely not going to say to her because i will never ever earn the courage to say so. We are just nothing but a 'fateful coincidence.'
