Aishi. The sweet name marked in the history of our place. If you roam around the village, there's no one who would never knew that name. Ask around, you'll hear great things about her.
Villagers will describe her as a living angel.
A filial child.
An excellent student.
A responsible citizen.
She never engaged herself in romantic relationship. Not even once.
But then, who she was kidding? She never wanted to be a role model. She never wanted to be looked upon to.
The reason why she grow up like that, was because she was a little fool in love.
No.
Maybe love is not the right thing to describe it. Maybe, it was her delusions. Maybe she was simply obsessed.
She never took a single glance to any man around her. She never took notice of those guys pursuing her. She never gave interest to those boys showing off at her.
Because she was insane. She was delusional. She was pathetic.
Staring at the small rectangular device in her hand, she always smile happily. Her heart fall into chaotic beating as she saw the small pink lips curved into a delicate enchanting smile. Those small glowing eyes that stares at her gently and passionately. Those white and fair skin that surpasses those of the maiden.
But too sad, her unrequited one-sided love is bound to be doomed. Because she fall in love with a star. Too far to reach, too hot to touch.
She is aware of this sorrowful fate. Of course, she knows how her obsession bound to end. But she couldn't just stop. Maybe, her obsession is too deep.
Because of that unrequited feelings, she pursued her dreams. Believing that one day, when she was able to prove herself, then she'll be worthy of his love.
And finally, she succeeded. She became a very famous novelist in no time. And to pursue her pathetic romance, she left her small village. Blending into the crowded city, she was looking for him.
Day and night.
One day, she found the man of her dreams. His small and cute physique. His smooth looking hair. His slender nose. His passionate eyes. And his enchantingly menacing smile. Yes, it was him. It was really him. Her heart went palpitating.
But soon as she was about to approach him, an equally enchanting lady hugged him making her froze in her feet. Her chest tightens like it was being hit by a hammer. It was excruciatingly painful. It was the pain of reality.
a painful reality slapped her. She was non-existent in his world. She made him her whole world, but she was never a part of him.
And as she watch her dreams shattered bit by bit, she remembered all the time she wasted. She throw away the joy of her youth, just for a man she can never own. She felt sorry for all the heart she broke just because of her sweet delusion.
But as she walk away with a shattered heart, she smiled bitterly.
The tears she was shedding is a proof. She wasn't just infatuated, it wasn't just obsession. It was love.
Three years have passed. She was still Aishi. She was still in love. She was still pathetic. She was still a prisoner of his smile.
