Chapter 2 - Dark Dawn

The moon outside was shining..she open her diamond eyes and went step by step to the balcony of her house.. The peaceful night already gave her all that could be thankful for... (or did she?)

The breeze in the air, the intrepid stars in the cozy sky, the brown leafs touching her silk and tender face..the crack of the branches, the old trees in the park..

A tear dropped in her arm..what was missing..what did she needs more?

A couple in the street, passing the bridge by the river..She knew the little girl outhere didn't loved him, her touch reveals all, their love wasn't true, her eyes were lying..

Suddendly she saw a figure passing the lamp near the fountain..crying alone..

"Why?" - she was saying

"To me..what did I do..? I hate you.. - she screamed to herself..

Suddendly she looked up, and their eyes crossed paths..

They stay there..for a moment.. two lonely souls..one wandering in the mischievous places of that cold damn town..the other trying to escape from the same..her maze of emotions, other places.. in her mind..

She extend her arm from above, and dropped something to the street..

Her soul, with fear..walked slowly without looking above, and on her knees unravelled the small piece of paper and read..

" I am not alone anymore.." - she discovered beneath all the water and dirt that embed the words, on that stranger's piece of paper..

She disclosed a smile and run away..as far as she could..because she felt free once more..

Above her, the tears were gone now..

"It's time to sleep now.." - said a voice in her mind.

"tomorrow is another day...
