[ City Girls Club 1: NERINA ]
Everyone leaves. Everyone is replaceable.
At least that's how Nina views life. She grew up believing that everything comes with a price. As somebody who lived through pain and works hard to pull herself out of situations she doesn't wanna be in anymore, Nina firmly stands by her belief that love isn't enough to make someone stay.
So instead of letting people in and allowing them to hurt her, she chose to surround her heart with walls and told herself that being alone is the better option.
But what if it's not?
Until life pushed her into a foreign world where she knows she will never fit in.
And for the first time in her 20 years of existence, she realizes that the more she tried to guard her heart, the more she'll find herself drawn to something...or someone...capable of breaking through the cold walls she worked so hard to build.
From pens, papers, calculators-to neon lights, short tops, leather skirts and boots, high heels, and beer-stained cups, transitioning to glittery parties, designer dresses and champagne, unfamiliar faces, and different status-Nina found herself tangled in a place full of secrets, pressure, legacy, and unfinished businesses she never wished to be involved with.
