Azalea Lourdes ā¦ Twenty ā¦ College SophomoreĀ ā¦ Bookstore AssistantĀ ā¦ FC: Kaya Scoledario
"Setting fire to our insides for fun, to distract our hearts from ever missing them."
Azalea Lourdes was born and raised in Greenwich, Connecticut. Her parents owned a flower shop, and lovingly named their only daughter after one of their favorite flowers. She was an easy going little girl who loved life, always laughing, smiling, and trying to help her parents. Azalea was incredibly sweet and charming, even at an early age. She always loved the arts. She adored every medium, and to Azalea, the world was her canvas. She was incredibly happy and blessed.
Unfortunately, as Azalea grew, she came to find that although adults loved to talk to her, kids her own age never would. She was teased for being a āgoody-two shoesā throughout elementary and middle school. Azalea was always very quiet and kept to herself. Making friends never came easy to her, and eventually she became too shy to even attempt to connect. When high school started, Azalea had had enough of being sweet and easy going all the time. So when her classmates teased her and called her names, she teased them and name-called right back. And although she maintained her shyness, her sweetness and love of everything in life disappeared. She befriended other social outcasts, and tried to emulate them. She tried drinking, smoking, and sleeping around. But nothing made her feel like she was part of something.
When Azalea was 16, her mother was diagnosed with stage four-stomach cancer. Doctors were not sure why they caught it so late, but Azalea and her father knew it was because her mother hated being sick and away from her everyday life. The cancer was too far along and she died only months later. Her motherās death permanently changed her. Azalea knew her mother had been disappointed in Azaleaās new rude and apathetic persona, and from the day she buried her mother on, she has tried to be as kind as possible. She even managed to make a few true friends by the end of high school. Not wanting to be too far away from her father, Azalea ended up attending Maywood Hills Community College. Azalea has become more outspoken and witty, and appears to be a relatively happy person. But Azalea misses her mother more than anything, and not a day goes by that she doesnāt wish her mother were still here.
āĀ Kind, Insightful, and Enthusiastic.
āĀ Vulnerable, Distant, and Insecure.
Emily Donovan [Best Friend]-Ā Azalea and Emily just clicked instantly, each of them being somewhat of an outsider, in comparison to the rest of the residents of Maywood Hills. After only a short while, and just a few conversations, they became very good friends. With everything going on in town, itās nice to have someone you can connect with, and thatās what these two have.
Lana Greer [Employer]-Ā Lana is the owner of the bookstore Azalea works at. They do not know each other well, but get along just fine. Azalea looks up to and respects Lana. They arenāt good friends, so they mainly have a typical employer/employee relationship.
Wyatt Taylor [Friend]-Ā Azalea and Wyatt are polar opposites. She is shy and proper while he is outgoing and doesnāt take things too seriously. Their friendship may seem unlikely, but they balance each other out well. There is something about Wyatt that perplexes Azalea and she is eager to find out why.Ā
Azalea is compulsively nice. She believes that the only way to redeem herself to her late mother is to be incredibly kind, but Azalea takes it to an extreme. She always says or does what she thinks is the āniceā thing to do, even if itās wrong, or will ultimately hurt her in some way.
