from the busy streets to the people making a ruckus this late at night, there lies a girl on her bed doing nothing but looking at her bedroom ceiling and zoning out completely. no noise in the background, no thinking about life, nothing... nothing at all.
she usually does this for an hour or so until she checks her phone, which will be about... now. she goes on it doing the same old thing: twitter, instagram, youtube (when she feels like it), repeat. nothing new.
this girl has a name, by the way. her name is ryan. ryan lane. she isn't your ideal dream girl or even the girl next door. just a regular human trying to find her way in life by building up her own path. ryan knows that she doesn't necessarily have her life together. not that she's in complete shambles and is going through some things... she just feels as if she's a plain jane perhaps. her life isn't all that perfect but she wants to feel free and be free.
ryan has the personality that would attract people into becoming her friend because she seems careless and a bit bold, but in reality she has no doubt of what people say or think about her. ryan always says to herself, "we all have a mind of our own so i don't see why people are quick to judge." that's her life motto.
ryan feels like she's missing a bit of something in her life. is it a potential future?.. no. is it acceptance?.. as long as she's ok with herself, she'll do fine. is it the meaning of life?.. probably. is it love?? i mean, she's never even thought of having a significant other. romance was never in her book of relevance. she sees all these couples pass by and thinks nothing of them. she likes her family and friends dearly but having someone to be by her side romantically seems like a lot to work with, or that's what she thinks. it's nothing to it if you know it's not gonna last a long time.
this night was pretty different though. ryan received a notification from instagram. this time it was a message from someone. she never had one of those before. it was usually people liking and commenting on her posts. this kind of caught her attention. it was from a guy whose account name was romilhemnani. ryan took matter into her own hands and decided to text this random guy.
romilhemnani: heyo!
ryaninthescene: hello?..
romilhemnani: how's life
ryaninthescene: fine, i guess?
ryaninthescene: how about for you?
romilhemnani: great! do you mind if i ask a few questions
ryaninthescene: nah i don't mind. ask away :)
romilhemnani: question one - have you ever heard of a group named brockhampton?
ryaninthescene: answer one - no i haven't. why?
romilhemnani: ah i'm just asking. no biggie.
romilhemnani: question two - do you, by any chance, have interest being in the music industry?
ryaninthescene: answer two - no i don't. if you're a soundcloud rapper looking for a backup, sorry.
romilhemnani: you're a funny one, aren't you. question three - what kind of music do you even listen to?
ryaninthescene: answer three - i listen to anything that sounds upbeat but mellow, so something like alternative hip hop or lofi.
romilhemnani: cool! you seem like the type of person to listen to brockhampton and their music.
ryaninthescene: bro what is with you and this group? why do you keep mentioning them haha. who are they anyway?
romilhemnani: WHO ARE THEY? they're the most amazing group out here... best boyband since one direction 🤠
ryaninthescene: ah i see. what do you recommend me to listen to?
romilhemnani: i say you listen to their latest album. it's called ginger. that thing was sent from the heavens. after that you can probably stream ALL OF THEIR MUSIC
ryaninthescene: i have nothing better to do so why not 🤷🏽♀️
romilhemnani: wow you're quick with choices lmao. have fun with that!
ryaninthescene: alright sure. bye.
romilhemnani: see ya.
ryan was getting a bit sleepy and decided to call it a night. as soon as she got comfortable in her bed, she was knocked out.
A/N: hey again! sorry if this looks like a busted mess. i write like shit now. it's been so long since i was actually concentrated on my stories like my whole life was on the line. now i seem careless lmaoooo sorry about that but i'm trying. sayonara!
sincerely,
the author herself 🌻
