'We started out as a romance novel,
And ended as a tragic tale,
Of a person who found their true love calling,
And a girl who forever lived in longing.' - A Dot Han
Cora longs for a love that she can't have, but as she fights the feelings that she knows she shouldn't be feeling she comes to the realisation that there's a possibility that the love she desires isn't as far out of reach as she once thought. Cora is in a sticky situation though, because despite the fact that she is longing for another, she has a boyfriend who loves her more than words can describe... and part of her loves him too; so how will she choose which path of love to follow? Whichever path she chooses to take could have a devastating effect for not only her, but for other people too, so she has to choose carefully... and she can't just think about herself and what she wants; she has to think about the consequences for the others.
