"It was love at first sight, last sight, ever and ever sight." These are the words I would use to describe the feelings of affection I felt toward Victoria. Victoria was, no is the very definition of beautiful. In all essence of the word. Her hair was long and golden as the sun at the height of its brightest day. Her petite frame decorated in pale skin brighter and more beautiful than snow. Her appearance was elegant and regal much like her namesake.

From that moment I first lay my eyes on her, she was the light of my life. I wasn't stirring, this was a different feeling. I never did feel aroused in the sense necessary for procreation. It was more bewilderment and adoration were the words I would use to describe my feelings. An arousal of the mind. To where one longs to connect to the soul. To me, physical being was only a minute part of the larger whole.

Besides I myself could never find it in my heart to violate the precedence that had been set forth before me. I felt it more necessary to think of my own survival. Despite every fiber of my being screaming outward to do otherwise. I made the decision to take it upon myself to wait until the proper time to ask for her hand and become mine. No, I am not like those suffering similar afflictions of self-supposed love. I decided to bide my time and wait for my Victoria. For anyone other than her would not be worth the travail.

Although now I find myself haunted by the dismal spirit of a young Japanese girl. She appeared around twelve years of age. She appears in a white ornate kimono with long black hair that reaches to her waist. This girl in some sense is the complete opposite of my beloved Victoria. This girl goes by the name of Ai. A simplistic name, with a simplistic meaning. Love is something so pointless to those scorned by fate to walk this earth without. The gods of fortune beam upon the self-punishing. Ai came to me shortly after I had moved from Tokyo with my Family. Which was roughly four years ago. Ai had existed until now for the sole purpose of vengeance. Something I had allocated nothing but disdain. It is not the motivation nor the act itself Iheld rancor. In the simplest of manners. I find it unbecoming of such a soul. It is of my opinion that it is more appropriate for one to wither away in peace and solitude. I guess it is because Ai was not able to do this that I take sympathy. Although I find her presence at most times hardly if not at all tolerable.

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

It was shortly after Ai had became attached to me that I had met Victoria. I had met Victoria through my academic establishment. My Parents had me enroll in a local College Preparatory School. I found the twisted irony of the name Stephen's Preparatory Academy revolting.

Naming aside. I could not bear the thought of being stuck with the immature imbeciles I had been coarsest into calling my classmates. Such a childish term itself classmates, yet, it was all they had deserved. I could only manage to find one person I could consider a true colleague. But, I know that this too is in vain. For this individual had been Chloe. Chloe was Victoria's older sister and the proxy I had first been able to encounter Victoria through. As much as I hate to admit. I find myself more finding Chloe useful to my own motives than I do a genuine colleague. I guess in that sense, Chloe is also nothing more to me than a classmate. One of which I have to tolerate in this insufferable universe I live in if I am to obtain what is mine.
