I call Greed, Avarice. She desires what everybody wants; money, power,
love. She also craves the taste of chocolate. She sees the good in people, but she also sees the bad. She sees what the look like if they take off their masks. She desires the smile of another human being. She wishes she was loved by someone, other than her family. She wishes that she could look at someone and know they're on the verge of breaking down. She wishes she could tell herself that everything is gonna be okay. But she doesn't believe in happily ever afters. That only happens in movies. But, she's still naive little girl who still believes in soul mates and love at first sight. But is it really the truth. Or is it a lie our elders tell us so that we never lose hope?
