Despite being named after a princess in a famous mobile game, Princess Peach Guiraldo's life was never a fairytale. It was supposed to be a fairytale where a warrior like Mario, like how it was in the famous video game, would come for her and defeat the bad guy. And so she kept on waiting, praying that someone out there would save her.
Tragedies after tragedies, she kept stumbling in the dark tunnel of oblivion, leaving her scathed and full of blisters from the fire that she had created. With no one to run to, with only a jar containing paper airplanes that she and a young boy made, her life turned and twisted until she could no longer find the end of the tunnel.
The rainbows turned gray. The skies turned black. Everywhere she turned was a shadow of the past she'd gone through, laughing at her, mocking and haunting her.
Scared, ragged, and lost, she learned to put up her walls, to slow down---just like what yellow in the traffic light tells the drivers.
Second book under Traffic Lights Series.
