Tall skyscrapers towered above me. They sparkled in the night, reflecting the moonlight that desperately broke through the dust and fatigue of the day. I looked out over the city from the rooftop and couldn't take my eyes off the city lights. It was beautiful, no doubt about it. But it was beautiful only if you look at it from afar. But if I think back to what I saw during the day, everything ceases to be beautiful.
Today, I shuddered at the actions of people who grieved me by losing all their soul for the sake of being free.
Today, Oliver decided I needed to see how much the world had changed. So they all decided to give me a tour of the big city.
Looking out the window, wearing sunglasses and without my long hair, I felt like a nobody. It was only in Leon's eyes that I could still see myself and know that I was still alive.
