A discussion of how to turn a self-destructive, gloomy girl into a sweet little sister
Linas's life was full of pitfalls. An Ruiya, a pampered little rich girl from a reasonably well-off family, had no idea anyone could be this poor until she got deeply involved in Linas's life. Poor was one thing, miserable was another, but the way she acted so tough made an impression. An Ruiya had never met anyone tougher than herself.
An Ruiya: Oh no, I really do want to tease her for fun.
And somehow, they ended up becoming best friends.
But she never expected that after she left without a trace for several years, karma would come back to get her.
That great one-sided "friendship" turned into something else.
Theme: If you aren't brave enough, you may never find out what could happen
