Anastasia I look out over the water of Meydenbauer bay. In the distance, hundreds of small lanterns float over the water, illuminating it in their calm wake. The pale light of the bright full moon diffuses into countless silver speckles on the calm waters. It is an unearthly, magical sight to behold, and before my 'relationship' with Grey, I would have relished in the beauty of it all. But looking at it all now, it does not conjure up the same awed filled feelings I would have had before all this happened. These feelings of loneliness, anger, hatred, and sadness are so overwhelming that it feels like I am drowning in them. I don't know how to handle this toxic cocktail of emotions, but I know I need to put a lid on them soon before they destroy me. I never in my life hated anyone before,
