From the first day I set my eyes on you when you did your first show on the runway, I couldn't help the feeling that rose within me.

Haven't you seen the things she has been through?” I asked, hoping he would be on the same page with me here. “She will be in worse pains if she doesn't know.

It was supposed to be my first birthday with you, and I had already thought of how today would have been, but everything got ruined. You died and left me all alone here to celebrate today on my own.
