Red Roses for More Than Ten Years

When I was born, I suffered from a congenital cardiomyopathy, which caused me to be shorter than usual and my heart rate was much faster. As a result, I was unable to do many of the things I wanted to do and love the people I wanted to love. Until I met my rose when I was 16 years old, I saw the beauty of the unusual world for the next 10 years of my life. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
