Synopsis
Everything I've ever wanted was to be loved. But the thing is, love doesn't happen when we want it to, it's always by chance. I've always wanted to have someone that would be there for me no matter what but I guess I'll have to wait.

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1

Living as a teenage girl wasn't easy. Was life even easy at all? Well...not really. Not when you don't seem to fit at all. I'm not saying that I'm living a hard life, it's just that I can't really seem to know where I'm going and that's what frustrates me. I guess all my life, I've wanted my life to be perfect just the way you see it in movies. Don't you feel it too? The way you want to have a happy ending just like the characters in the story? Well if you haven't, I definitely have. I can't say I've felt it forever but definitely now. I just want to have someone there for me when things go wrong. I want someone to take care of me when I'm sick. I want someone to grow old with me to watch the future grow before us.

I guess that was all just a silly thought. Happy endings don't exist in the world. All we could do is dream, dream that maybe one day we'll have someone by our side. I lay down on the soft grass, staring at the blue sky. It was quite warm today, the autumn breeze was blowing in the air keeping the temperature neutral. What a normal day in my life it was. I liked to spend the afternoon outside, a little time to myself. I lay down by the same tree every fall afternoon reading a book to keep my worries away. I didn't really have much friends to spend my day with, after all I wasn't much of a talker. I sat up, picking up my book to start reading again. I could hear the laughter of children and the soft rustle of leaves around me. I wish life was this calm but we have to accept reality, it isn't anything like this at all.

This tree was my only comfort I ever have in my life. After all, I don't have friends and I'm not quite close to my family either. I guess you could call me an overthinker, I think too much about my situations. That's what makes me a pessimist. I might be different towards others and people don't definitely know the real me. The one that's hurting inside. The one who's longing for a reason to live but that's impossible to find. I want to run away from life, to live the life I want, to be successful. But that doesn't come without hard work, does it? No it doesn't.
