For What it's Worth

There are things in Lyrae Meteorite Desiderio's life worth sacrificing for.

First, her youth--for being the sole parent of her two siblings at a young age after their parents' death. Second, the man she loves--in exchange of an unbreakable friendship. Third, her whole life--for not choosing chemo after knowing she has cancer. Fourth, her virginity--after picking someone from the bar and not regret dying as a virgin. And lastly, her dreams--after being knocked up by a handsome stranger she met that night.

And despite being lucky enough to be misdiagnosed for the cancer, it was unfortunate for Meteor to face another set of problems. But in a blink, she for sure has the strength to sacrifice her life for everything again.

Because for what it's worth, it is better for others to have the life she dreamed of. It's better for her best friend to find someone better, it's better for her siblings to not carry the debt of gratitude burdened by their relatives, and it's better for the baby to have a complete family... even if it means sacrificing her heart by loving a man she once took for granted.

And if life can make everything worse, she's in love with the man who loves someone else.
