Hi there… I'm Gabriella Montez Bolton, and this is my personal diary. You might be wondering why a grown woman like me would be keeping a diary… well; I have secrets, grave secrets that I'm not in the position to share. These secrets, they've taken over my life, they've ripped off my sane soul and forced me into a land of darkness, where I'm alone and ill. It haunts me every waking moment. I no longer am able to see myself in the same light, I'm absolutely disgusted with myself. I detest myself for being in this state, but that's all I'm left with. Hatred.
However, I never used to be like this. I was just an average girl who got lucky in high school. I was the new girl in school. Being my timid self, I was afraid to talk to others and always kept to myself. But, a boy walked right into me… literally. He spilled coffee on my top. I thought it was a prank since he was one of those typical "popular jocks". "I'm so, so, so sorry! I should watch where I go next time," The boy said in an angelic voice, "No, its fine. I walked into you… I should be the one sorry." I replied softly. And that, that was the conversation that changed my life. "I'm Troy by the way. I've never seen you before. Are you new in East High?" He said, "Hi, I'm Gabriella, and yes… it's my first week in school. Everything's just so different here…" I mumbled whilst I shuffled my feet. "Well it's really nice to meet you, Gabriella. Can I help you with cleaning your top? I'll pay for the dry cleaning." He said, "It's alright, I'll just get it off in the bathroom." After saying that, I walked straight into the girls' bathroom. Ever since then, I started hanging out with Troy and his friends. For once in my young life, I was cool and popular… everything was running smoothly. Over time, Troy and I fell in love, and now we're happily married. He was my first love, my first lover, and my firsts to everything. We had amazing friends who we still see on a daily basis. High school really never ended, everything remained the same… the relationships, the friendships, and everything else in between. Troy and I have been through thick and thin, we thought we would eventually break off in college, yet it only brought us closer. All of us went to great universities, and had a successful working life. Troy is a flourishing business entrepreneur, while I fulfilled my dream of opening a kindergarten. Everything sounds pretty perfect, doesn't it? Well it was… untill that one faithful day. I still remember every vivid detail, it never leaves me. It has grown to be a part of me, and it has made me become what I am today. That faithful day…
So, what happened on that faithful day? Do you guys want more? It's been a long time since I was in this writing game, and I really hoped you'll like this. Give me your comments, cause I really, really want to hear them. Good, bad… anything!
Love, Clarissa
