“…” I looked at the dairy in front of me… After putting away some books I finished reading, I discovered a small book hidden behind the closets. It was untitled and ornate with flower patterns, with a small key hole with a key inside it when I found it.
“I—,” Conflicted emotions ran through my head. A sense to open the diary, and to not fought against each other.
“Yet…” I thought to myself—no one would ever want to know me. Yet… in front of me was the diary of her. Surely, surely, if I read this I could fix some problems? There must be in here a clue that could solve the problem with Cecelia. Something Alicia did to her - I was sure it had to be something along that line seeing how Cecelia reacts towards me. Though what Alicia did, I couldn’t imagine.
“I’ll… consider.” I didn’t want to open a diary of a girl carelessly.
I stared at the diary… again…
“I—,” I took a deep breath… I told myself, “I am her; I shouldn’t stir up the past.” I told myself. I sat down at my desk and unlocked the diary. “But this is something that I should know.”
I flipped pages, one by one, reading word by word. I knew a girl’s secrets shouldn’t be seen or known carelessly, but everything I knew here would help one way or another…
… … …
It… Did she really do that?
I—! I… despise… her. Without a doubt, there would be no easy way to help Cecelia. Something like that—, “A mental scar…” Alicia… She really was a terrible person. Yet, why…? Why did she do this?
I looked back into the diary and skimmed through—there is clearly more. This escation happened about a year ago - for seemingly no reason -, and there were so many… many more logs…
“Tkk—!” A silent tear fell onto the page of the dairy… I… couldn’t help not crying.
Seeing more and more logs really pained my heart. So many… unfortunate events with seemingly no reason or no trigger.
Even what I endured - physically and mentally challenging events -, none would ever match to what Cecelia has endured.
Eventually, through the heart wrenching pages, I came to an end with an empty page dated Lunar Year 933, First Half, Day 98-2, and nothing. I look and flipped more pages, and nothing hidden was past that empty page. “So… this is the story of the Teseia Alicia before me.” I uttered.
I hate this book… diary. It felt terrible, knowing what was in it, yet… I went back to the empty dated page, and flipped one page over. “If - this is only if - something happens.” I reassured myself. “I—I can never know if something happens to me that makes me out this body forget.” I uttered… What Cecelia felt there, I felt was my duty to fix from here on.
Lunar Year 933, First Half, Day 134-2,
I’m sorry… From here on, I will do everything for you. No matter who I am, I, Teseia Alicia, will reverse what has been done to you Cecelia.
Be this Alicia, no matter what, cherish Cecelia. Be it Cecelia, I can never forgive what the Alicia before me did, but I hope if you see this that you will give her a chance again.
