Innocence is something that you see in fairytales so is honesty, but that innocent mindset disappears in your teen years. As for Moani's family and friends, they're all going down the same difficult path of finding themselves. Their back story will reveal that their lives aren't so innocent as they perceive to make it. Will there lost innocence cause deprivation to their lives?

My grandmother handed me a thorny rose, "Uh-Uh" -she wagged her finger- "Be careful it has thorns now, they'll cut you."

I nodded my head and held the rose in the palms of my hands, "You're a Rose Nene.." she said as we continued to walk in her garden.

I shook my head, "I'm not a Rose granny, I'm Moani." She chuckled and patted my head before stooping down.

 She took the Rose from my hands, "You see how beautiful it is..." -she held it to the light as I nodded my head- "...Beautiful just like you, but it has thorns to protect its self from the bad things and people. "

"Can Zelda be a Rose too?" I questioned and she moved my thick hair from my face.

"Yes, deary everyone is a Rose, but some welt for water." She claimed

"I drink a lot of water granny! Ill never welt!"

She smiled, "Don't let anyone take your water away, you need it to survive. I do ask that you lead other welting Roses to water."

I crinkled my face not understanding her....

"You nothing to me. Fuck you!" he yelled in my face.

I sat there looking dumbfounded I was now 3 weeks pregnant.

"What you mean?" - I stuttered- "You just mad you don't mean that"

He grabbed my chin and leaned in like he was about to kiss me but, roughly pushed my face away.
