Diana isn't one with an exciting
life , she always enjoys reading , gaming , music and writing books . Diana often finds herself wondering what it feels like to be loved . One day Diana decided to try online dating but little did she know that the online world is an evil world with monsters waiting to devour their weakest prey."good morning" Diana said to her older sister penny. Diana and penny were very close, they always shared secrets and trusted each other.
"morning am off to work I don't want to be late on my first day" penny had just graduated University and was now working as an intern at a certain company while Diana had just been accepted into university for the next academic year.
"bye don't forget to bring me chocolate" said Diana as her sister left. Diana never had much to do she mostly stayed home alone.
"damn it D my controls are screwed" said her best friend on the other side of the computer.
" T relax I got you" Diana peacefully continued her game with lots of shouting and swearing.
Diana is of African origin and is proud. People often said she was very beautiful though she did not see her self that way. Every time Diana looked in a mirror she often found her herself frowning at her face and body she just didn't feel beautiful, something to do with her high school past."game over, sorry D I got to study for a test tomorrow but I promise to hit you up when the brain damage is over." said Trevor on the other side making Diana giggle.
"good luck nerd face" she joked.

"Hey how was your day" asked penny
"the same as usual" Diana sighed.
"something wrong?" penny had a look of concern on her face at Diana's change in mood.
"sometimes I wonder if I'll ever have my own fairy tale because constantly my feelings are always hurt in the end" said Diana as she remembered the many times she was lied to, only to have her heart broken . For so long Diana has kept her guard up and never let anyone in because she fears getting hurt again.
"aww I know life sucks sometimes but our painfull moments are what make us stronger." said penny in a comforting tone.
"thanks sis you're the best" Diana gave penny a big hug so she could feel better.
"OK so our cousins Kyle and max are coming over to visit and mum really misses us, can't wait for her to come back from Italy" said penny as she prepared dinner.
"yeah me too though was it really necessary for her to send Kyle and max over to look after us, I mean aren't we old enough" Diana couldn't help but roll her eyes as she replayed her mother's words in her head.
"yeah we are but it's going to be fun and we can't fight off goons if we were to get attacked" penny was now smiling at Diana's frowning face.
MARCH
Diana did enjoy the company of her older cousins always making jokes and sometimes they enjoyed pissing Diana off just for fun.
"one day I'm going to marry a white man just wait and see" Diana said to her cousin Kyle with her arms crossed.
"white guy huh? , one thing you should know is that you are not doing the marrying it's him to marry you, Secondly even black guys are OK just set your standards for the guy you want though no one is perfect" max was always the wise one when it came to wisdom maybe because he was the oldest but sometimes he was a dork.
"thanks but my mind isn't changing anytime soon" Diana stormed off into her room and immediately opened her computer and clicked on a website that one of her friends had told her about.

"hi my name is John looking for a sweet person"
"hi my name is Ryan what's your size"
"tired of bullsh**t follow me and I can help you"
Diana kept on reading funny and weird messages she started to think what she was doing was a bad idea.
"OK he looks interesting" she said to her self and clicked on the message.
Jeromy: hi am jeromy from Georgia
Diana :hi why are you on this web
Jeromy:bored I guess and yourself
Diana:honestly I don't know why but maybe looking for a friend 😉
Jeromy :me too😏
Diana:😏
Every day since that day Diana spent her time talking to Jeromy, things moved too fast she dated him only for 3 days, well it was a little game they both played till she thought Jeromy wasn't the kind of friend she wanted because he made things awkward.
"please Kyle just pay for the wifi" Diana put a sad pretend face apparently this new online discovery took her boredom away.
"fine I'll pay but you better use it for productive activities" said Kyle.
Diana went back into her room and logged into the anonymous website again. She knew what she was doing was dangerous but she found fun in it rather than seating alone depressed all day. Doing this was an escape from facing her darkness.
Jake: hey cutie
Diana: don't call me that.
Allan :hi cool name
Diana : why you here and where are you from?
Allan: am bored also my girlfriend dumped me because she couldn't manage long distance.
Diana :sad wanna talk about.
Diana was constantly talking to Jake and Allan, mostly Jake because she had no interest in Allan at the beginning but little did she know.
