A Different Kind of Fairy Tale - Prologue
New Story! Please Comment!
Every girl has that fairytale story in the back of their mind; finding love, having a family and living happily ever after. Emily Tate was no different. She dreamed that one day she'd encounter someone she could fall in love with. But with abandonment by her parents and out stretch of troubles at school, she was left to feel unwanted and unloved.
*****************************************************************************
I woke up on July 9th, and it felt like any other day. Nobody was home except for Liz, who was my family's housekeeper. 'My birthday is tomorrow.' I sighed at the thought, I would be all alone, except for Eli, who usually tries to celebrate with me. My parents have left me with countless nannies since I was two years old, checking on me about every 8 to 10 months. I'm kind of happy that they're not around much anymore, it allows me space, no one to pressure me for high marks, or to be more social. I have one friend, his name is Eli Russel. He's absolutely gorgeous with his sandy blonde hair, bright blue eyes and his athleticism. The problem is, I'm still all alone during school. He's on the varsity football and hockey team, and is part of the in crowd that everyone seems to have at their high school. But he's my next door neighbor and we've known each other forever and he understands me. So, most of the time I get to see him when he comes over or I go over to his house.
I got out of bed, relaying the fact that it was Friday, and I'd get to live in some peace for the weekend, hopefully. My parents tend to pop in unexpectedly for my birthdays, give me money and leave a couple of hours later. I don't even know what their jobs are.
'Enough,' I told myself, my mind still in a constant battle. I went to the washroom to freshen up, applying my mascara and eyeliner, as well as, straightening out my blonde hair. As I finished straightening, I stripped off my PJs and went to my walk-in closet. I pulled out my dark wash skinnies, a baby blue long sleeve, a white sweater and some short uggs. I pulled it all on and left my room with my bag to go eat before I left.
*****************************************************************************
As I got downstairs, I noticed a suitcase lying at the bottom. Something seemed off. When I rounded the corner, I saw Liz with tears streaming down her face and... MY PARENTS!?
