~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Eleanor Aurora Baudelaire, she was a very famous and well known young model back in the day. She quickly became famous when she made her first appearance on the Teen Vogue cover at just 16 years old she took the world by storm. She started getting more popular and getting more modelling jobs scheduled, more interviews were arranged for her and she even had her own clothing line by the time she was 18. She had it all, she was as bright as a star since she kinda was once since she was famous. However, what would you think if you knew that Eleanor never really liked modelling nor being famous. She was actually forced to go into the modelling business just because her parents were also rich. Her mother was a designer as well as a model and her father was a businessman and real estate agent. Elenor was forced to become a model just to keep her parents' reputation intact. She tried to voice out her feelings toward modelling but nobody batted an eye toward her direction, she was either dismissed, belittled or just straight up ignored. Only her friends knew the truth, but even then she just started to ignore her problems just to please her parents and gain approval from them
She always hated the fact that she needed to follow a strict schedule as well as a strict diet. Her parents always made snarky comments about her appearance and criticised every little thing that she did no matter if she did something wrong or not. She was just a teenager after all, she should be out in the world, going to college, making new friends, going out with people and figuring herself out. But her parents had other plans set out for her. Instead of letting their own daughter make her own decisions and asking her input on the things she will do. Her parents make her work 24/7 and never let her have any freedom. She was only able to hang out with her friends; Masami Kimura and Kito Hayashi when the time and date was able to fit in with her schedule—which was on very rare occasions. She was still able to spend time with them but only by text and calling, even then it still wasn't enough to make her happy, it was still hard for her to do so.
Her friends would try to come and visit her when she was at home but it was usually Masami who visited her more often. Eleanor appreciated Masami's efforts in seeing and helping her out but they both knew that Eleanor's situation was one that could not be helped. But still, Eleanor loved having Masami over and the knowing that they might get caught make the thrill worthwhile. Eleanor loved Masami in general but she never knew how or why. The boys that she had to model with never appealed to her but the girls did, they always made her feel.. Different. And she never knew why. She tried talking to her parents about her but they just simply dismissed her feelings saying that "it's just a phase, you'll get over it when you're older" But her feelings for Masami never faded, it still lingered on for so long she didn't know what the reason for it was. She really wanted her parents to hear her out but they would always respond with the same demeanour;Indifference, with absolutely no sympathy for her whatsoever, But this time she didn't allow her parents to downplay her emotions this time.
One day she just finally snapped, she couldn't take it anymore all the pressure and expectations that was once weighed on her for being the 'perfect daughter' just for the sake of their company finally collapsed as she finally had her voice heard from her parents, her words cut like a knife, while her parents spat out their opinions with poison saying that she was just being a selfish, self centred, egotistical, attention seeking little brat who is too entitled to as she was told. Her mother just told her that she was just confused and she will one day find the right man. But Eleanor disagreed saying that this was who she was and if they didn't approve of her choices and who she was then she would just leave. But her parents weren't having any of that. They forced Eleanor to start dating a guy who was from one of her father's friends' son from work named Ezra Walker. But Eleanor didn't want that, she knew who she was and her parents would not be able to brainwash her into thinking otherwise. The day after the big argument with her parents she ran away from home, not daring to look back at the past. She finally felt free and happy; something she never really felt before when she was with her parents. Her fake persona that she once had to put up just for the approval of others was finally withering away and she felt anew. She finally felt whole again, she got into poetry and poured out her passion in pretty poem on paper.
