Theodossia Komyshan is too focused on things that will lead her to her defintion of happiness, heavy goaled and always working towards it, just like butterflies - focused on what is beneficial to them.

But Rain Veneziale is exactly opposite to everything Dossie stands for, no goals, free willed and is on a path where he doesn't know what it leads to.

When Dossie crosses his un-destined path, she gets a taste of life.

Dossie is not flattered easily but when she observes rain who seems to find beauty in the little things, who smiles with sparkling eyes with no intention she starts to realize what if all her life she was going towards something that will provide her happiness only for a limited time.

She wanted to find beauty in little things just like he does, she wanted to go on 1 am car rides, blast music on the ledge of a bridge at the dawn and look at glow in dark stars and fall asleep.

And she does all that with rain.

But after all she has goals she's set her mind to.

It felt like the stars aligned at once for her to find happiness, yet she's too poised to let anything come in between for her. too comfortable in her own cocoon, but when she's found blossoming happiness, it feels like she can't fly high.

After all, butterflies die in the rain.
