Tears plopped on her mobile screen, watching Mingshen in the award conference. Everything that he ever guessed and said about her depression came knocking in her mind. Everything that he ever warned about tightly shutting down her sorrows now was violently opening like a pandora’s box.
She thought she was slowly learning to move away from the painful past but reality harshly struck that she hadn’t moved a single step forward after all. She was there where she always was.
