Reality To My Fairytale
Every girl growing up was always thought that love was the most beautiful thing ever. They even made movies that represent what love is or what it should looks like. I know every little girl has watched at least two Disney movies. As a girl growing up, we watch princesses and believe love will once be like Beauty and The Beast or Cinderella. Well, I have learned otherwise. My name is Angela, and this is my “love” story. I have had boyfriends before, they never really meant much to me they always wanted something from me that I just couldn’t give them. As a young teen you get thought to take care of yourself or you wont even up in a good place or just be unhappy. After all the failed relationships I let that dream of meeting someone special go and moved on to think about myself. It was great to just love myself, I would go out with friends have fun with no worries. I was happy on my own. Soon enough towards the end of school I got into trouble they sent me to an alternative school for summer and the beginning of the next school year. I wasn’t excited at all because I knew there was only bad people in there. I was scared I prepared my self-in case of anything sense some friends told me people are a little too crazy in there. When I went it wasn’t bad the teachers were cool, and we did fun stuff towards the last week of summer school I seen this handsome guy he was looking at me. I didn’t want to start anything with him at all because I know he was in there for a reason and must have not been a good on. One day he came up to me and asked me about my day and we talked the whole time we were in school he just understood me, and we clicked. We talked a lot over the summer. The day before forth of July me and my family went to Crystal Beach. When I got there it was getting late, it was about to get dark out. When I went in the water, I seen someone that I recognize. It was him I seen him, so I texted him he seen me, so we decided to ditch our family and just walk around we walked and talked for hours while the fire work were just going of all around us I thought I was in a fairytale. Later in the summer he asked me to be his girlfriend I gave in and said yes. Were dating for moths and it was great to me our relationship was perfect. We had many great moments I thought it was just meant to be. We started school again that’s when it goes bad, I would overthink everything because of other people. I believed everything everyone would say I let my head get the best of me. We boke up and got back together many times. I always went back because I was to sacred of letting go and starting all over again. I was to be attached to someone that maybe wasn’t even worth it. Well, that’s at least what I thought at the moment. I was told I couldn’t have kids even when I wanted to. I was upset because I always wanted kids sense I was super young I loved playing with baby dolls till I was thirteen. So later in December when I found out I was pregnant I was the happiest person ever I didn’t care what age I was or that I was still in school I was just happy me and him had fixed things over time. When I told him he was happy too. He stayed by my side the whole time even though we always had problems with trust and communication. As a girl I was thought love was a feeling. As a young woman I learned love is trust, time, pain, and missing them when they’re gone. When we had our beautiful little girl, we took an oath that regardless the problem we will fight for each other for our baby wont grow in a broken home like we did. Our baby will always come first she is the reason and making of our love. She is love, we named her Alora meaning the light of god.
