Everything Happens For A Reason, But What The Fuck?

"She carries emotional baggage. He carries unmatched audacity."

Lloyd Ramona Felecio, a beautiful disaster wrapped in pink blouses and unhealed wounds just wanted caffeine and silence. She spent most of her life running from the ruins of her parents' failed marriage, from the ghosts she swore she buried, and from the terrifying possibility that she might actually deserve something good.

Until fate, because it's a little shitty sometimes, gave her Zyran Anthony instead of an isolated oasis. He was an annoying and softhearted menace who have loved her and keeps on loving her silently from the sidelines.

Every time he shows up, it irks her guts. He only triggers her dark sirens to resurface just to sing her a lure song toward the darkness. She's not so sure if she wants to strangle him or shove him off a cliff just to buy herself a minute of peace... but maybe it depends on the coffee counts.

However, there are some nights were she thought, what if running away wasn't survival but just all her constant fears? And what if choosing him, or rather herself, is the bravest thing she will ever do? That, she wouldn't know, unless she'll stop blaming the world and do something about it.
