There is something as inevitable as death: life

Coming to a world like this is definitely not easy. Sadly, some see that more than others. Besides all the beautiful, lovely things this world has to give you, all the sad and hard moment come with them. Each one of them having an effect on your life. Effects that can bring you happiness and joy, or those turn your whole world upside down. It's hard to live on a world like this, believe me I would know. Happy ending don't exist and if they do, problems always find their way around. Fairytales stay in books, and I don't see them coming out anytime soon. In a world like this we have to face things. All those scary, and terrifying things that take your breath away, making you unable to breath. Those things that can make you nervous, as your heart races making almost every single hair in your body stand. Those terrifying and even sad things that will try to push you down. If we don't face these things then I might just say it's not worth living.

Cause you never think the last time is the last time. You think you have forever, when you really don't. The truth is, you don't really know what will happen tomorrow. Life's is a crazy ride in where nothing is guaranteed. A journey full of happiness, sadness, love, hate and pain. There will be ups and downs, turns and twists, and I used to think as long as I had someone special by my side nothing else would matter, but damn I was so wrong.

You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, but you do have a say in who hurts you. So when life give you reasons to cry, then show him you have a million and one reasons to smile.

Life is supposed to be full of memories. Memories that stay with you till the end. Those small images that remind you of certain details about a special day. This so called memories can bring a smile to your face. You know I'm right. Yet you also know that they can bring tears. Now don't get me wrong, cause this drops of water that emerge from your eyes can be a sign of pure happiness.

You see I'm not trying to be negative or anything. I'm actually one of the most positive people I used to know. Yet life has put me on a track filled with lies, pain and struggle, and sometimes we are not strong to go through them by ourselves. They say there will always be someone who is going to be there for you. In fact, I used to have that special someone. We weren't the best of friends at first, but I guess that wasn't life purpose for us. His name was Harry. Harry was one of those people who I could always trust and lean on when something went wrong, which usually did. He also made me smile, laugh and have fun. Which was something I had missed for a while now, and was also craving desperately.

You may be wondering where he is right now. Sadly I'm not able to answer that question cause not even I know the answer to it.

"Emma honey, did you do all your homework for tomorrow?" The sound of my mom's sweet voice ran through the halls of my house.

"Yeah mom, all done." I yelled back making sure she heard.

"Dinner will be served in a couple of minutes. When your father arrives come down so you can help me set the table" I heard her once again.

Let me introduce myself first. My name is Emma, Emma Montclaire. I'm seventeen years old, and hopefully almost out of high school. You know, that drama filled building where parents send their hormonally raged teenagers too. My mother's name is Rose and my father's name is John. I have an older brother, the person whom I'm related to, sometimes a role model, sometimes an ass, yet someone who I will forever be stuck with. His name is Tyler. He's three years older, and quite an annoying overprotective ass but what the heck? I love him. I haven't seen him in a couple of months though since he's currently living in New York halfway finishing his medicine studies. He calls almost every week but it's still not the same. He's the first friend I ever had. We have the kind of bond that could probably never be broken. Nobody will ever be able to understand my craziness like he does.

I remember the time my first boyfriend came home to pick me up.

"Emma c'mon, you still have time till he get's here, at least pass me those carrots so I can chop them off for mom."

"Fine." I said frowning handing him the vegetables. Not even three second later I could hear a car pulling by the house, making my heart race. "How do I look?" I asked looking at Tyler.

"Beautiful little sis. Though I'm still the better looking sibling, never forget it." He said winking at me. I could help but roll my eyes at him. "If you keep rolling your eyes you might find a brain back there." He shouted at me jokingly.

"Shut up Tyler." I said annoyed. He just blew me a kiss and smirked.

"Fine. Just know that if he promises you he will treat you like a princess then he better build you a fucking castle." He said.

"Ty it's just a date."

"Yeah I know. Just let him know Dad has a gun and I know how to use it."

"Tyler." I said annoyed rolling my eyes once again.

Well that's my brother folks. A loving, annoying ass I have to put up with and I love a little bit to much.

We live in Atlanta, Georgia and have lived here as long as I can remember. I would tell you all the other small details about me like my favorite color, school I got to, best friends, and favorite memories, but I guess they aren't as important. At least for now...
