I am standing in the rain, waiting. Where is the man of my dreams that I have been waiting for? I told him to be here. Why is my heart beating so quickly? Am I scared he won't show up? This trembling that I feel won't cease, but it feels right. That somehow, I'm not the only one here with this feeling.

I stand there in the rain, like a wet, soggy mop. Yuck…

"BEEP-BEEP-BEEP!" Ugh, fuck… my alarm clock.

Damn, who is rumpling my blanket. I don't want to wake up-let me finish my dream!

From the eyes of an onlooker, picture an Asian woman in ducky pajamas, standing on the bed, attempting to pry away the blankets, sheet by sheet. On the other hand, inside the heap of pillows, blankets, toys, etc., a small little pink haired woman is hiding under her covers, refusing to come to terms with the fact that-

"IT IS MORNING, SAKURA! GET IT?! WAKEY-WAKEY!" The woman with the buns finally screams.

"Geez… Get off of me!" The green eyed gem retorts. Aww, I forgot my dream…

Finally AND eventually, it is 11:00 am. Time for work… Work that pays for the bills… Especially the house… That needs to be remodeled…

But…

"I'm off to my internship!" A lady with lavender hair hollers from the bottom of the stairs. She enjoys cooking; as a hobby, and almost as a JOB. But she is young… Hinata here is only 19, and amongst the select few candidates for the National Culinary School for the Talented. As one of the top ranking students, she has the chance to win $3,000; enough to keep away the loan sharks from the house. Hence, her working at the local Top Ramen shop is necessary until that scholarship is won.

"Uh-huh…" Tenten mutters, reading out of a newspaper. This woman is rich but she refuses to accept the inheritance. Her business stature allows her to live a luxurious life yet she is only a teacher. Her attitude towards children is a bit rough, even though they love her. Her physique makes any man think of her as the perfect woman. Her parents wish she would consider marriage because she is at her prime, at age 20. However, she is much more humble compared to their expectations.

"See you later!" A woman in bright neon clothes, with the latest fashion replies. This is Sakura. Unlike the old days, she has thrown away Sasuke, family, practically EVERYTHING for her new found dream. She wants to be a Star. Just recently moved from her small, quaint little home town, she joined her friends here, who are each on a mission to reach their dreams.

"Good Morning!" Another snazzy woman appears, with bright sunglasses, and a sundress. She is wearing her work uniform as a café cashier. And a flower shop personnel. Her two shifts make up for the others who don't have an income yet. She doesn't mind the hard work, she does other odd jobs too, but they are always respectable. She loves her friends, but she aspires to be a fashion designer…

These are the four women living in 3433 Flower Lane. It is on the border between the dingy part of town and the rich side. They go off to pursue their careers each day… Out into the world.
