Once, there was a girl who wanted to write. She was not very confident in her skills, though, so she chose a writing website where no one would know her, and no one needed to know her real name.
She knew people on social media could be mean, and she thought she was prepared for that. But, one day, she saw a movie that she really liked, and she thought SOMEONE, might like to read about that movie Miraculous-style. So, she began to write a story, making it sound exactly like the movie, so people could relax and enjoy it. She was planning to put a big twist in the middle of it.
But, she never got the chance.
Everyone complained about the same thing: it sounded to much like the movie. She tried to calm them, and assure them it would be fine, but they kept complaining. So, she stopped updating, since no one seemed to like the story, and she let people know, so they wouldn't be surprised or disappointed when they found out she had stopped the fan fiction.
She thought everything was okay. But, one day, a girl on Wattpad, decided she was too good for something she didn't want. Probably because she was a rich girl, who always got what she wanted. So, she ignored the fact that the girl who wrote the story was trying to be nice, and told her she was stupid and selfish. She said; 'you don't seem to understand that I've watched the movie. I don't need to reread it here.'
Clearly, she did not know that all this was hurting the girl's feelings, which was why she had stopped the story. At least Someone else had been polite. But no, the other girl thought she could be as mean as she wanted to people, because she thought it made her cool. She thought the writer was stupid, because she didn't know what this girl did with her life when she wasn't on Wattpad, and she thought the writer was being selfish by not updating, and trying to tell people they were hurting her feelings. If she didn't like the writer, she could've just read something else. Or, better yet, made her own story. But, instead, she decided she needed to be mean to the author on her Wattpad notifications account.
The girl who was already on Wattpad was a sad, sad case, because she thought she was better than everyone. She did not understand that some people lead bad lives. Some lives are worse than others. Like Uniquedoll602's life. She was doomed to be the little sister of a selfish, lazy, scheming older brother, who pretended to be autistic, so he could get his way. The brother never did his chores, and always caused trouble, and he had the parents completely fooled, because they thought he was autistic, and therefore, he didn't know any better.
Uniquedoll602 Was forced to become the boy's older sister, despite being two years younger. Whenever her parents weren't looking, the boy would bully her, and cuss at her, and make her feel like a bad person. The boy was allowed to do whatever he wanted to her, because the parents thought his autism made it hard for him to understand what he was doing was wrong.
So, Uniquedoll602 was constantly punished because her brother made trouble. One day, she went outside for a while, when her parents were out, and she even told her brother where she was going. But, he was lazy, and when the phone rang, he did not answer it. The father came home, and yelled at Uniquedoll602 because she had not answered the phone, when her brother could have easily done so. The father simply said that he was autistic and didn't always understand, and told her not to blame everything on her brother.
So, the brother ruled Uniquedoll602's home life, bullying her and getting her in trouble. And she could not do anything about it, because she was not allowed to 'tattle' or 'blame' on her autistic big brother, who thought this was a jolly fun game indeed.
So, Uniquedoll602 started writing on Wattpad. She felt free when she wrote, because she could finally put down her ideas on paper, or, in this case, screen, without her brother making fun of her. And no one had to know who she was. She received honest opinions, and was happy.
Until people started complaining about the same thing, over and over again. Uniquedoll602 had always tried to be polite. So, she kindly told them she understood, and was trying to make things better. But, they kept complaining, and Wattpad Girl decided she could be mean when Uniquedoll602 tried to defend herself.
So, Uniquedoll602 blocked the bully, because she didn't need to put up with the same kind of crud she got from her brother online. People didn't need to keep complaining about the same thing, and The first girl didn't need to be mean about it all.
She was not worth the misunderstood, invisible writer's valuable time.
