That One Real Smile
Prologue: Slipping Away I don't let people in. There's no point. Sooner or later, everything fades-dreams, plans, even time itself. I learned that the hard way. The future isn't something I think about anymore. Not because I don't want to, but because I know it isn't mine to have. It's easier this way. Keep moving. Keep existing. No hopes, no attachments, no regrets. And then she came along. Athena. Too stubborn, too bright-standing like the most magnificent lamp of heaven in a world I've already dimmed. She wasn't supposed to matter. I wasn't supposed to care. But something about her made me hesitate. And hesitation is dangerous. - [UNDER REVISION] "One Real Smile" will undergo revision to enhance clarity and provide a deeper understanding of the story.

That's What They Told Me
Lumi-as someone who's being told what to believe and hope in everything as she grows up-reckons that living is a way to comply with and entrust one's entire life to serving superiors on top of the hierarchy. Who will not think of that way anyway? Being harbored in the lands of Castellanos, it is engraved in her mind that she lives to pay her debt of gratitude to the family who sheltered her, who protected her from all the cruelties the outside world has to offer behind those fences. What they're doing is to protect her life and welfare-that's what they told her. So there's no other way to live but be the gullible and obedient yokel of the Castellano clan, because they're doing everything just for her safety. But that's before her life turns upside-down as she discovers a strange note from the attic. "To whoever finds this message, they erased us. This is all that remains. Remember us, please." What does the note want to convey? Is it just one of those mundane trivial stuff found in an attic like the usual when someone decides to clean it? Or is it something connected to her... "safety?" For sure it is for her safety. That's what they always tell her. But what one hears is not always the version of reality. Most of the time, it is the most convenient scheme to twist and bend the truth. That... That's what they will never tell her. --- Start: July 01, 2020 End: December 02, 2020Complete
