The Lonely Rose In Darkness
“ I'M EXHAUSTED FROM TRYING TO BE STRONGER THAN I FEEL" In a world where the weight of reality presses heavily on the shoulders of sixteen-year-old Bianca, her life takes an unexpected turn when she stumbles upon a beautifully enchanted rose. Lonely and burdened by the maturity that sets her apart, Bianca discovers an otherworldly connection within the delicate petals of this mysterious flower. With its magic, she forms an unbreakable bond with three remarkable friends, setting forth an extraordinary journey that intertwines the struggles of youth with the touch of the supernatural. Bianca's first confidante, Rowoon, a seventeen-year-old with sandy brown hair and a courageous spirit, becomes her pillar of support. His kindness and maturity complement Bianca's introspective nature, providing a sturdy foundation for their burgeoning friendship. Then there's Rosé, the soul of the squad, a lively sixteen-year-old whose cute demeanor and playful personality inject joy into their lives. With her wolf-cut black hair and charming green eyes, Rosé brings a spark of brightness to Bianca's otherwise gloomy existence. Completing the quartet is San, an eighteen-year-old with a cold yet generous disposition. His introverted nature resonates with Bianca's, and his red-brown messy hair masks a depth that only Bianca truly comprehends. As Bianca navigates the complexities of her teenage life, these friendships grow and strengthen, each friend providing a unique piece to her puzzle. Together, they embark on a journey that uncovers the different phases and struggles of life, their interconnected stories highlighting the power of resilience, the beauty of empathy, and the magic woven within true friendship. With the enchanted rose as their guiding light, Bianca and her companions discover that in the darkest moments, there exists a shimmer of hope—a realization that transcends the boundaries of their reality and the touch of otherworldly powers. Through the highs and lows of their collective experiences, they learn that true strength lies not in being stronger than they feel, but in finding solace, support, and a glimmer of enchantment within the petals of their unbreakable bond.
“The heavy heart"
Lily was crying. She was bleeding. Bianca was worried about her. She knew that something was wrong. Lily sat on her bed. Bianca sat beside her. She put her hand on Lily's shoulder. Suddenly Lily hugged her tightly. It never happened before. Lily was always arrogant and unkind towards her.
Lily starts telling her. She said " I have been enduring it for so long. Now it is hard. I am giving up. "Bianca asked her about what exactly happened. Lily said to her " Nothing is working well. In school, my friends are leaving me because they found that I am not rich. In-home our parents fight because of money. We, siblings, don't even have a good understanding. My grades are falling. I am good at nothing. Everyone hates me."
" I am not even a good sister, friend, student, or daughter. I am just a burden on everyone. I always misbehave with you but you know what, inside I...I want to be with you. You are my elder sister but I never treated you like one. " Bianca got tears in her eyes. She said It's Ok I am here. Lily was so disappointed.
She said " This all sounds so little and unimportant but this took all of my happiness. Our problems seem bigger but when we share them with anyone we become speechless because words can't describe our terrible feelings. That's all I wanted to share with you. "
She ran downstairs. Bianca wanted to follow her but she stopped as she wanted to give her some space. She sat on her bed and she was thinking about how she thought about her sister. If she knew that she have been going through a lot she won't mind anything about her. She put her hand on the bedsheet. She felt something like paper. When she took it out. It was an envelope. She opened it. When she read it, She felt the ground slipping under her feet.
She ran without caring about anything. She went towards the bridge quickly. She saw Lily standing there and crying. She hugged her from the back. She said the words that everyone wants to hear, "It's okay, Everything will be alright. You are doing well. Towards me, you are a good sister no matter what our relationship was like. It was all past now let's give it another chance to live. We will do this together. I am here for you. I am with you. "
Lily was still crying then she hugged her back. It was a beautiful sister's moment. Everyone deserves a sister like Bianca. They sat on the bridge. Lily asked her why she forgave her. Bianca replied " Sometimes we don't know what the person is going through. They only thought the person is aggressive and rude. No one wants to know the reason behind that. Everyone is busy with their own life. No one has time for each other."
" I was curious about your behavior because you weren't like that from start. I always wanted to know why you are always aggressive. Finally today I find out. Sometimes all we need to do is to talk with the right person. "
Lily was thanking God in her heart for giving her such a supportive and kind sister. They both went home and took the necessary stuff. They spent time together. They enjoyed it a lot. They went to different shops, ate a lot of street food, and brought some cute hair clips.
Today was a really good day for Bianca. She got her old sister back. As she was alone Zosia came out of the pot. She was cursing Lily as she hit the door and Zosia had to hide immediately that's why she got hurt. Bianca took the first aid kit and cut the small piece of bandage. She put on Zosia's leg.
Zosia was in pain. Bianca asked her why she had to hide. She told her that except for her owner, she is not allowed to show herself to anyone. As their conversation wasn't completed. Bianca asked her why she is helping her and from where she is but Zosia said she will clear her all doubts soon.
But for now, she is not allowed to tell her the details. Bianca didn't force her. Bianca was happy that someone cute is with her. Someone knocked on the door. Zosia hides under the bed. It was Lily again she brought an Ice cream for Bianca. She gave it to her and then she left.
Bianca was eating ice cream and Zosia was looking at her. She offered some to Zosia. She took a tiny bite and she started to scream. As she felt a sensation in her teeth for the first time. She likes the taste. Bianca asked her to join and she start eating little bites. They enjoyed the ice cream together.
Bianca was going to sleep, and after laying down for a while she slept. She saw a dream where the same things happened like, The same guy like Rowoon, in the Same place but the situation was different it was like a flooding situation where Bianca was helping little kids to get out of the building.
At last, she saw something really strange. She saw a beautiful young lady. That lady said to her "Hello Bianca, I knew that you will come. Thank you for taking care of my lonely rose. Hope you both will get along together." Bianca suddenly opened her eyes. That lady was really beautiful but it seems like she saw her somewhere else before.
When she looked at the clock, She was already late for school. She got up and ran inside the bathroom. She did everything quickly and left without eating breakfast. She was running because she was late. Near the school, Rowoon was waiting for her. The gate was about to close but Rowoon started to run with Bianca as the guard already knew that Rowoon was the Principal's Nephew, he didn't say anything to them.
As they walked in Rowoon told Bianca about his dream and coincidentally It was something that was connected to her too...
