Mina
As she sat at her laptop writing one meaningless word after another, she realised what her life had become. This was not the life she had wanted, this was not the life she deserved.
She had become a writer. If only she had listened to the warnings. He would never love her liked he loved her best friend, after all, she was just the one to pick up the pieces. Writing came naturally, it was easy and simple, all she had to do was write what people wanted to read, stories of everlasting love and happy endings.
"Mina" a voice called, she looked around, wondering who would be interrupting her thoughts.
"what?" she snapped
"jeez Mina, you always get like this when your writing, cant you write on another night, i mean its Wednesday night, WE SHOULD BE CLUBBING!"
'because i always write about things that i will never be blessed with having'
"Yes?" Mina said nicely
"I wanted to know what you were doing this Saturday?"
"why? Serena what do you want?" she asked.
"What makes you think i want something?" Serena asked
"because i know you"
"fine" Serena said "well, Darien and i are going to dinner Saturday night, and i was wondering if i could borrow your car and umbrella?"
"ok" she respond automatically, by this stage she was not listening, to involved in her thoughts.
'Darien and Serena were going to dinner, why did i need to know that?'.
Mina continues to look at the screen in front of her, the words are empty, worthless. They are words of happy endings, and emotions that will never be returned to her.
'You are crazy, why would he love you back? you have freckles for Christ sake. in your whole 21 years of life all you have amounted to it a writer, and anyone could do that, you don't even know what you are writing about. But Serena on the other hand, she is a teacher, all her students love her, she makes a difference in people's lives, while you give them false hope'
It was already Saturday, and Mina had only just decided the plot for her new story. This time she was writing about a girl who had fallen in love with a boy from another world. A world the poor were looked upon as vermin, nothing more, and usually less. The main character is poor, her world consists of working, chores, and scavening food for her brother, baby sister and dying mother, who will not accept her. As all her stories go, the boy will fall in love with the girls, they will defy all odd's to be together, their love will be one of fairy tales. To Mina that's all her stories are. Fairy Tales.
"Serena when are you going to dinner with Darien?" Mina asked
"We are meeting for a early dinner why?" Serena replied
"I just was wondering when im going to get my car back" Mina shrugged
"don't worry i am just driving it to the restaurant and back, nothing special" Serena explained. Mina had to go to a meeting, even though it was Saturday, her publisher wanted to read her new story.
"Your late" he said
"im sorry Yaten, but i have no car" Mina snapped
"calm down women, now just tell me the story" Yaten said, Mina did as Yaten asked.
"My new story is about a girl who has fallen in love with a boy from a completely different world to her own" Mina said, she took a seat on Yatens large couch, Yaten remained seated behind his mahogany desk.
"The boy she is in love with is rich, he is from a world where the poor are thought of us vermin or worse. In her own world, she works to feed her family, she cooks and cleans around their shack because her dying mother is to sick to do any of it, including looking after he brother and baby sister" Mina continued.
"sounds great, anymore?" Yaten asked impatiently
"well if you will shut up i will continue" Mina hissed, Yaten laughed, he had always enjoyed her temper.
" the boy realises he is in love with her, but he does not know that she is poor, or their new maid"
"what will the names be?" Yaten interrupted
"i think the girls name will be Serenity, and im not sure about the boy's" Mina replied
"i like the name Serenity, the boys name should be strong, somthing that is worthy of a prince"
"Endymoun" Mina replied
"i like it" Yaten said "Serenity and Endymion"
"ok can i finish?" Mina said, although she as not really asking his permission.
"Serenity does not know that the boy she had fallen in love with, during their meetings in the market, is her knew boss" Mina said
"i get it, he ends up falling madly in love with her, they defy all odds of them ever being together, and they live happily ever after, the end" Yaten said
"no" Mina stated
"what? but that's your thing as a writer"
"i want to give it a twist, maybe he never falls in love with her, for instance, but she will always be madly in love with him" Mina said
"wait, are we still talking about the book?" Yaten asked. Yaten was the only one that knew about her feelings towards Darien, they never discussed the topic, but Yaten figured it out quickly, Mina was certain he felt sorry for her.
