What Fate Means

From the moment she was seventeen, after being abandoned by the very person she left her family for, being stranded and almost constantly assaulted in an unknown state, she had managed to convince herself that she was cursed, especially in the romance department. The perky and outgoing person everyone knew her to be was just a front to cover up how she truly felt – depressed, angry and lonely. She tries her best to not dwell on her lack of family love and single life by associating more with her friends and being diligent at work but even that couldn't stop her from being depressed the one time in the year that love and family were being emphasised and taken seriously – not valentine's day BTW.
