CHAPTER 1: Introduction

Aria was a young 13 year old girl with a crazy life. Unlike most girls she wasn’t that pretty, she would look at the mirror most times and think “Couldn’t i be born pretty? She would wonder how her life would’ve been if she was born pretty. She has dark brown hair lengthened just 1 inch below her armpits with goldish yellow colored highlights on them which she added 2 years ago but they still haven’t faded away and won’t anytime soon.

          Aria does have a few friends or maybe more but never hangs out with them; it's always just a “Hi” or a “Bye.” Her main friends which she hung out with were Helen, Kira, and Tina but her BFF is Ruby. She always hangs out with Ruby but not this year in Grade 8. Now she hangs out with Helen or Kira and Tina always has volleyball practice or runs at recess so they barely hang out.

          Aria met ruby in Grade 3 but they barely talked. In grade 4 they were in the same class and they both then became BFF’s. Ever since then they have been. In grade 6 however, since Aria and Ruby were besties and always hung out like everyone does even still they got bullied. People called them Gayria for Gay Aria and Gaybe for Gay Ruby. People would push them, hit them with things, tell them to go die and everything. Because Aria wanted that to stop she dumped Ruby and THAT was what Aria still regrets to this day. Later they both did become friends again and by the end of grade 6 they stopped getting bullied. But not even once did they tell the teachers they got bullied or their parents to hide the embarrassment. In Front of others they would act all cool and as if they are popular at school but they actually aren’t. Ruby always wore a mask since covid started in Grade 4 even though it's over she is still comfortable with a mask on and is scared to take it off. But after a lot of persuasion Ruby took it off this year in grade 8.

              Aria is stuck in the middle of a weird life. She keeps liking everyone she sees that's cute even if she doesn’t know them. Her first ever crush was Adrian, who she liked since grade 4 and 5 then didn’t in grade 6 but liked again in grade 7 and even 8.

       Aria knows every single person in Adrian's family except his dad. Adrian’s oldest sister Daniela was Aria’s reading buddy back when Aria was in grade 1 and Daniela was in grade 4. Aria instantly loved Daniela, she was so pretty. She had blonde hair and light brown eyes falling on her back and light skin. She was also really sweet. She knows Adrian’s brother Arro too who is in Aria’s younger sister Fanra’s class and Aria would hang out with him back when she was in grade 4 as he reminded her of Daniela even though Adrian resembled her more but there was no way she would go talk to Adrian even though they were in the same class. Arro and Aria’s sister Fanra were 2 years younger than Aria currently in grade 6 and Adrian was in Aria’s grade 4 and 5 and 7 and now even 8 class. In grade 4 since Adrien and Aria were in the same class on every field trip Adrien's mom would come and Aria would sit next to her talking to her. Adrien’s second oldest sister Layalla was fat and not so pretty like the other siblings. She was also rude. She lied about Aria to her friends saying that Aria never gave her chips when Aria did. Layalla was 1 year older than Aria and 2 years younger than Daniella. Aria also met Adrien’s younger sister Lifer who was 3 years younger than Aria. She was so cute and sweet but unlike the other siblings and just like Layalla, Lifer had really dark brown hair that looked like it was black and she kind of resemble Layalla but was cuter since she was younger.

       Aria misses Daniella so much and wants to see her again but can’t. In grade 4 one day, Adrien came up to her and said “My sister Daniella told me you were her reading buddy in grade 1” hearing that Aria was so happy. First reason was that her crush talked to her and second Daniella remembers her.

         Adrien, and Arro and Daniella look mostly alike and Layalla and Lifer look mostly alike. Daniella has blonde hair, she probably dyed it and Adrien and Arro have light brown with a mixture of brunette hair and light brown eyes like Daniella but Layalla and Lifer have brown eyes and dark brown hair.

In grade 7, there were quite a few memories and we’ll tell just one right now.

First, In grade 7 their teacher was Ms. Rebecca. Adrian would sit in front of Aria and always look back and talk to her. Once he took her pencil asking to borrow it, which wasn’t that big but to Aria it meant the whole world.
