Simply Invisible

Chapter 14

Melissa's POV

Life is unpredictable. How do I know this you say?

Two words.

Leon Black.

Six months ago if you would have told me that Leon would have entered my life and poured his soul out to me. Well, I would have laughed in your face. And then tell you to stop living in dream land because fairy tales don't exist.

But now its different. Maybe I still believe that fairy tales don't exist. But life does. Life goes on and it lives with or without you.

You see when I was a little girl I wanted to be a princess so I could have a prince to love me and live in a huge castle. (I know cliche much right). As I got older I realised that was not the case.

Because you don't get to choose if your rich or poor in this world or of you have a nice car or a nice house. And Princes aren't lurking around every corner. And castles don't appear magically.

However, we do get choices. Sometimes we have to travel down really dark tunnels to find our light. Our choices. Sometimes they work on a science project with you and see your scars. Your REAL scars. Not just the ones on the outside but the ones that cut deeper than that. The ones who scream and shout but yet remain silent.
Them scars.

You see what I'm trying to say is that my story may not be the best. It may not have castles and Princes but my story is real. My journey is real.

We live in a society where people are dead. We wear plastic smiles and fake personality's. We troll social media in hopes that we will find answers. Instead we find girls with huge lips and tiny waists, digitally cropped and tuned to perfection. While we stare in awe and try to live up to that.

To something that is fake. We cant slice our bodies off. We are who we are and we need to learn to accept that. I haven't. God knows I try. But I like me. And I like my choices.

You see before Leon Black came into my life I was also a sheep to society. A lamb to the slaughter. Living up to expectations. I was dead.

I mean I was living...... But then Leon came along and finally......

I was alive.

Authors note

And there truly is a difference between living a just being alive.
WOWWWW!!! I dont know what this chapter was but I found it relatable and I hope you get to understand Melissa a little more and why she does the things she does. And how Leon changed that.... But if your reading this you are perfect as you are and do the let anyone tell you different. Be you. I mean everyone else is taken! Keep happy. Keep true but most of all keep SMILLINGGG😁😁😁

Much love
