Growing up in her father's household, River Aeris Mendez was constantly treated like a useless being who is not capable of doing anything without her father's help. Like a bird who's wings are cut off and a fish that's unable to swim.
She felt useless and unworthy.
Experiencing those countless of times, she was fed up and tried everything in her power to prove her father wrong: That she can do something worthy and her father will someday realize that she's more than what he thinks of her.
From the rise of the sun till it set, she kept on trying and trying. But she failed once again, regardless of what she did, she'd always see the same result of what happened.
You're nothing without me
Were the words that he'd always tell her.
She almost gave up. She almost believed her father's words.
Till Castiel Jair Claveria , the first man who defeated her and the only man who owns the most annoying smirk. And the very same man who constantly reminded her about things that she's worthy of.
The light amidst the darkness and the boat in the middle of the ocean that saved her from drowning.
For once, she felt loved. She finally found a friend, a companion and a lover.
She felt like she was finally saved and safe in the boat that saved her from everything. But just when she thought that everything is alright a huge wave crashed through her.
Making her fall in to the deep vast ocean, with no one to hold. Unable to to stay afloat, and unable to go beyond these crashing waves.
