Her world had changed yesterday, the day she decided that she would never be the same girl as she was. Now, she is Connie Lily Slynn, a blonde, poor, homeless girl who lives in a packed city. That’s it. Not a thing special, not a thing extraordinary. Only a little girl here. She walked down the sleazy road with her hands clasped together. She never felt this cold before.

I could even feel the heat through my breath that day. Everything was getting stifling. The sunshine followed by the lovely breeze has gone. All it had that moment was an angry line, with warmth and a sense of fire. No more wind coming through your hair. No more cloud embellishing the sky. No more cozy sunlight coming through the fog. No more fog either. Only the muggy breeze with the heated light and it was killing me, though I knew I wasn’t the only victim. Mrs. Lan came to our spot like a dead body. The cruel sunlight has taken all of her...

I was sitting on my cramped table near the window and imagining the horizon when it became morning, wondered how magnificent the breaking dawn could be. Then I detected a tall shadow moving towards me. I kept looking at the shadow until I could clarify what it was.
