Once upon a time there lived a boy who never ! This story….I've heard this since I was born, My grandma, Jane Darling, was told this same story by her mother, Wendy Darling, my Great Grandmother. They say; "We Darlings are blessed with angles that protect us," but seriously it's 2019 when are people going toonna GROW UP.

Let's start at the beginning… My brothers and I had just moved to London, England, 31 Kingston road to be exact. A house that's been in our family for 4 generations. My father, George Darling, says it has "charm" but that means I have to share a room with my brother's till Ii'm 14 and I'm 12, and they get on my nerves now.

"Come now, Evelyn. You used to love sharing a room with your brothers!" My mother says to me.

, "Yeah when I was 6," I grumble in order tosay try to get out of sharing the room.

"Exactly!yeah I don't want to share a room with her!" Mmy brother, Degan states loudly.

"I want to! Eve use to tell the best stories!" My youngest brother Ramsey yells out.

"Yeah, use to!" Degan throws back.

"Well, when I was a little girl I had to share a room," our mother says quieting us down. As we get out of the car, we see a old red brick building with white trim everywhere. We all follow my father as he goes to the door and knocks on the door,and seconds after my father knocks a old woman opens the door. "George! Lydia!" She says as she wraps her arms around my parents and they quickly wrap their arms around her.

We shuffle in and and she looks from are parents to me and my brothers. "Ooh my, they look just like them!" She says as she looks from Ramsey to me, We look to our parents

"Who do we look like?" I question.

"Well, Wendy,y ,John, and ,Michael" She says as she points at each of us. We look between each other not believing her at all. As the woman named Henriette unlocks are room she says "We lock this room when no children live in the house,." and smiles opening the door to a massive room. In there was with a beautiful light fixture, lighting the whole room ,and showing the old toys neatly put away near two beds that match with two buckets in front holding old wooden swords and big stereotypical pirate hats and one old timey top hat as well.. We walk in and I see my bed, a bit bigger than the others straight across from the window and small balcony. I look to my brothers and Degan, already on his phone being the most annoying 10 year old ever, and Ramsey, exploring every inch of the room only being 6 he's loving this whole new world.

After we all get back into the room after dinner but in night clothes that they had for us…... My brothers in a blue striped pajamas,and I'm in a lite purple nightgown that reaches to my ankles. "Hey Eve! Tell us a story!" Ramsey

"Wwhat? Nno, Rramsey. I don't do that," I say to him.

S"sure you do!" Ramsey grinssays as he gives me a wooden sword and a,a fake pirate belt before handingand Degan a top hat, a wooden gun and himself a wooden sword and a big puffy pirate hat. "Come on, "hHe says ushering me on.

"f-Fine." Once upon a time there lived a girl. Her name was Cinderella, she was beautiful but forgotten so she ran away to live a more adventurous life,." I say as I watch Degan put his phone down listen to my story,and Ramsey smiles so much as i speak.
