She ended up looking for him this whole time.

She met him quite some time back, bumped into him when she stepped out of a side alley with a dead end.

He was.. refreshingly polite, charming, perhaps a little too over-friendly, but definitely a breath of fresh air.. And the way he looked at her.. made her think she might have been alone for a little too long..

Caw, Caw. The birds warned her. They'd seen everything before.

But she knows what she is doing. She is strong, smart and independent.

She wasn't afraid. 

He gave her a cookie jar,

an act that showed a slightest care, it was a manifestation of what she wanted to have..

so, it made her hold on to it, as if her sanity depended on that very thing.

but now..

That cookie jar only reminds her countless lies and a period of pain and loss.

She is keeping an eye on things. She is no longer strong nor independent now. But she has her guards up, until something changes.

She was looking for the guy she was waiting for. Then she realized he wasn't here yet.
