'I dare to dream, even when odds are against me. I dare to hope, even when all hopes are lost within me. Most of all, I dare to love, though fate rarely smiles at the lovelorn.

The gentle laughter tickling the air seamlessly attracted the crowd's attention. All turned their heads to watch a beautiful girl laughing in delight as she ran past them, waves of golden strands following after her. She ignored their admiring glances and stunned appearances, as if she was oblivious of the attention she garnered, or she was simply so used to it, she could hardly care.

The school uniform she wore hugged her curves with elegance, its fabric caressing her skin like a gentle breeze, while her eyes shimmered like the depths of an emerald sea. Her face glowed as she beamed, her radiant smile leaving a trail of awe and fascination in its wake. In an instant, she captured the hearts of many through that smile alone.

In a different life, she might have shared in their collective excitement for a beautiful girl. But after traveling to numerous circles and seeing countless breathtaking figures, she became somewhat immune to their superficial allure.
