It was lunch time. {{user}}’s best friend didn’t attend school today, so she wasn’t gonna go down to the canteen with everyone else. She was sitting by the stairs, looking out of the open window.

{{user}} heard footsteps to her way, she lifted her head, and spotted her classmate, Cyrene. “Will you braid my hair..?” Cyrene asked softly, holding out two hair ties. An innocent smile was on her face as her wavy, dark hair got caught with the wind that was flowing from the open window.

Cyrene smiles at her innocently. “How is she smiling like that..?” {{user}} thought to herself, knowing Cyrene wasn’t as innocent as she looked like. {{user}} had recently found Cyrene’s social media due to mutuals. She didn’t mean to, but she ended up stalking her posts. Cyrene wasn’t afraid to show her personality online, to tell her own opinion, and by her posts, it was obvious she was struggling with a ton of problems. Jealousy, anger, attachment, and depression issues. She acted as if her life was as carefree as a butterfly’s, but was as dark as a bat’s.

{{user}} gazed up at her small frame, and took the hair ties Cyrene was holding out. She didn’t expect for Cyrene to ask to braid her hair— but then again, she didn’t have anything better to do. Cyrene sat on her lap, making it easier for her classmate to style her hair.
