Realization
She is a girl who is destined to be alone.
But...a question will make her decide to try changing her life...
"Is this what you really wanted? To be unrecognized? Alone? Isolated?"
Sophia
*stops*
I am Sophia. (an extra character)
I don't have anyone to cherish. (My character is an orphan.)
I don't know how to approach other people. (Because I am afraid of rejection.)
No one dares to approach me as well. (I am only an extra afterall.)
Sophia turns around with an unknown expression on her face.
Acceptance, yet there's a hint of sadness.
Sophia
In this world...I am alone. I am on my own.
Ernest
*feels uncomfortable*
Sophia...
Sophia
*surprised upon hearing him say her name softly*
(This character... Can he express his own emotion?)
Ernest
Is this what you really wanted? To be unrecognized? Alone? Isolated?
Sophia
*steps back*
(No... I don't want that.)
Ernest
*looks away*
The fact that we are talking to each other right now proves you wrong.
*steps forward*
Sophia stares at him with understanding. She is talking to him right now. Will it change the story if she start approaching him and the others?
Will she be able to talk casually with other people? Laugh with them? Have fun with them?
Will she be able to find a person who will stay by her side just like him?
Will he agree if she asks him to be friends with her?
Sophia
*a voice brought me back to reality*
(Of course, not. We are different afterall. You are just a character, I am not. I am supposed to be alone until the end, but not you because...)
A very beautiful woman popped out of nowhere. A girl with blonde hair, smooth and glassy skin, and a very appealing nature.
Lux
I am back!
*pulls Ernest towards her and gives him a warm hug*
Sophia
(...Lux)
*looks at them blankly*
(You need to be with her and I am not allowed to interfere. The story will definitely change because of me.)
Lux
Ernest!
I really miss school.
Good thing, I no longer need to work as a model for now.
*giggles*
Ernest
*looks down at Lux and pats her head*
Welcome back.
Lux
*smiles brightly*
Hehe.
*glances at Sophia*
She is...your classmate? What is her name?
Ernest
*looks at Sophia*
(She didn't answer my question earlier. Maybe, that is what she really wanted.)
Lux
*looks back at Ernest*
Don't tell me...
*pinches his cheek softly*
You don't know her name?! Stupid, Ernest! It is almost half the school year. We are almost graduating, yet you don't know your classmate?
Ernest
*looks back at Lux*
I know it. I am just to lazy to say it.
Sophia
*steps backward, then looks away*
(That's right. Back on track.)
I must go now.
While walking back, a familiar person is running towards Sophia's direction.
Sophia
(It is him. Will he recognize me...?)
Axel
*passes by without noticing Sophia*
Ernest!
Lux!
Sophia stops and laughs sadly. She looks around her and comes up with a conclusion.
Sophia
(No matter what I do, I will just end up like this.)
*remains standing not so far from them*
Axel
Sayna! You just got here and you're already ignoring me. You are not like that at all!
*pouts at Sayna*
Sayna
Axel, don't be sarcastic. I am usually like this. I like ignoring you.
*talks calmly*
Axel
Oh, please, Sayna!
Don't ignore me.
*pulls Sayna's hand*
Sayna
I know you just want to irritate me, Axel.
*pulls hand*
Axel
*smiles in defeat*
Hehe! Sorry, not sorry, Sayna!
*turns to look at Lux and Ernest*
Why don't we eat together outside later?
Lux
*claps hands*
Yes! Let's eat later, Ernest!
Ernest
I am not sure. I need to finish something. I don't have my phone as well. I can't leave unless I attend the detention.
*looks down at the materials he is holding*
The three of them remained silent as they look at Ernest's leaving figure.
