Luna cried for a period of time before she ceased her tears. Her legs felt numb, as she did not know how long she had sat on the floor beside the bed. She shakily stood up and washed her face. When she looked up at the sink mirror, she saw her puffy eyes. Her lack of sleeps for the past few days was evident by the dark circles underneath them.
She patted her face several times.
"Wake up..wake up..wake up! Stay strong! You got this. You can overcome this hurdle. Come on..pull yourself together. You know fully well life was never easy. You had come this far..don't be weak because someone does not appreciate you and your efforts.."
She chided her own reflection.
'Come on, Luna!'
