Alex POVI cried and cried non stop till my eyes were all red and swollen. I had gone to my safe haven which was a small beautiful garden deep into the vastness of the hundreds of apple trees orchids planted. No one comes here since I had instructed them not to. I come here only whenever I am feeling down. The reason was this place seems to brighten up my mood, make me happy and yet the scents of the bright flowers and the comforting sunlight is doing nothing to brighten up the dark storm over my heart. I felt betrayed. Angry.And maybe foolish, and stupid and dumb. And many more worthless names I wish to call myself but don't know them.
