Once Upon a Life

Once upon a time, there lived a princess named Layla Rose and she lived in a kingdom called Ros- oh come on!!! this is just a story that I read when I was five years old but I gave up on fairy tales when I was eight years old. Let me introduce myself, my name is Vanessa Corona and I'm fourteen years old, I live in a town called Rectroville. This is my story, when I was six years old my mom said that we would go to Mexico and see my grandparents but somehow my dad couldn't since he was born in Mexico, but me, my mom, and my oldest brother were born in the U.S, so we were able to go visit our grandparents. My parents' names are Rosaline and Juan Corona and my oldest brother was named Edwardo Corona, ever since we left, things have changed during the past two years when we were in Mexico. At the age of eight when I came back to the U.S with my mom and my brother; I saw my dad happy to see me but when I was about to run and hug him I saw a woman beside him and there was a little girl ho

At home.Home. A place where you are welcome by the people you are loved. I mean, I guess you can say that. Sometimes theirs no one home so you are only greeted by silence, I mean my mom works day and night and my brother works in the afternoon while going to school in the morning. I mean he is a senior in high school and soon he will move out and go to college. He is really trying hard to reach to his dream school. Anyways, today of all days my mom was home since she decided to take a day off from both her morning and night job and relax. Having two jobs is really hard work, I can tell since my mom comes home with a tired expression every day and today was the day I get greeted by my mom for the first time..."(Walking inside and closing the door behind her) Hey mom."Mrs. Fernandez: How was school sweetie (Walking towards her)."Good I guess (Taking off her shoes while talking)."Mrs. Fernandez: Vanessa I actually wanted to talk to you."I

Starlight Village. Never, have I ever thought that this place was the place that I was born in. My entire life I thought I was born in Rectroville but to my surprise, I wasn't. Just great! I thought that my parents' divorce was the last surprise I will ever get but no. Instead, I find out that I was born in another town called Starlight Village. I place that I don't have any memory of. Well, it is to be expected since at a young age you tend to forget a lot of your memories every time you grow. I feel like throwing up just being here... but at the same time, I feel like it is a good chance to discover more about my younger past self. Did my brother bring me to Starlight Village for a reason? No, that can't be but if he did then what kind of reason would he bring me here for...?"Are we there yet? (Starting to get tired and irritated at the same time)."Edwardo: Almost there your majesty~ (Walking while smirking)."Tch, how many times I told you not to call me ba

Jacob: What do you mean?Nayzett: I can't tell you right now, but it needs to be a day where Vanessa is not around. Just don't tell her anything, especially what I told you, promise?Jacob: I promise, cross my heart (Crosses his heart).Nayzett: (Smiles) Good."Hey what are you guys talking about? (Walks towards them)."Nayzett: Oh~ I was just interrogating him to see if you actually were the one holding his hand (Smiles)."Geez, leave him alone. Didn't you just heard me, I was the one holding his hand and period (Turns away and blushes). (In her mind) Even though it was to help Jacob from getting killed. It's still embarrassing since I'm not the type of person to hold others' hands. Oooh, this is so embarrassing (Covers her face)."Nayzett: Last time I remember, you weren't the type to hold other people's hands especially boys~."(Turns around towards Nayzetts direction) For the last time, I was holding his hand because I thou
