Ever since Alissa was born, she was haunted by the thought of having to be perfect. On the outside she's a kind, chill, smart and athletic person. Everyone seemed to like her. But on the inside she felt small and insecure, although she gets all the support she needs by her family, friends and teachers. And even though everyone liked her, they cared about her and wanted her to take a break, stop worrying so much about the future and start taking it easy. But she refuses to change her ways. Friends, school, potential crushes, it's all one mad whirlwind for her. But she's okay. She's always been. -~-~-~-~- All rights reserved (c) Image Source: https://ubisafe.org/explore/drawing-girl-selfie/

"And don't say you've never been warned." * * * STORY COMPLETED!❤ Featured in YA, humor, and projectbadassreads #teenfiction + #badboy + #romance © 2018-2019 aflyingwhale 🐳
