⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚𓆩♡𓆪˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆ Astraea has never fallen in love - and after witnessing her parents' tumultuous marriage firsthand - she revolts at the idea of it. Astraea doesn't know what love looks like, what it feels like, or what it's all about. But since her acting gig requires her to know these things, she strives to learn. Book 2 of "𝘛𝘰 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘦" By Sharon Kryssa 🖋 ──────────────────────────── ... "I just don't understand this... emphasis? Spotlight? Accentuation? On love? 𝘙𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤 love? Isn't there anything else to sing about? All the songs on the radio sound the same. Isn't there anything else to 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬 about? Sometimes I hear boys, in herds, in class talking, and I'd sort of just be confounded. Like, isn't there anything else going on in men's lives other than girls, girls, girls? Potential girls, previous girls - girl prospects. I mean, isn't there anything else going on in these men's lives other than that? If it's not studies, and it's 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 not - then, hobbies? Perhaps. Any remnants of any family? Any image or plan for the coming years? There's more to life than just "love". At least, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 kind. So much more. And I bet these men have never conceived - let alone entertained such a 'ludicrous' idea: That love isn't everything. That it doesn't 𝘧𝘪𝘹 everything! These guys, and girls - they'd give up anything for love. They don't understand that one love can't fill all the gaps and lapses. They are obsessed, 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 - with the idea that... something! Could save them. And then they're shocked that anything that exists on this planet cannot fly higher than the sky. That gravity subsists, that everything that makes its way up, is eventually pulled back to the ground!" -- LOVE, TRUST, ACCEPTANCE --All Rights Reserved
