Episode 1

I'm Bella. Last week I shifted to Chicago from California. That's my first time in Chicago. In California, I lived with my mom. I applied to the University of Chicago. When I told Mom about that, she was very angry. Like very very angry.

The first week she didn't talk to me. It took one whole month to convince her. And finally, she agreed. But she gave me some conditions and I have to follow them. Otherwise, I couldn't move to  Chicago.

So, now I'm in Chicago. Here I'm all alone. I don't know anything about this area. That's why Mom wanted to come with me but I told her not to. Now I'm staying in a small apartment. It's my mom's apartment. She spent her childhood here. It feels amazing to be here. I can spend my time where my mom grew up. I feel nostalgic about thinking that. I never dreamed about these things. Like moving away from mom, and living all alone. I never spend a night without Mom. She was always with me. Never feel lonely because of her. Missing mom. I feel like I have become so grown up. Living all alone. Looking for myself. Learning about new things. It's exciting though.

Two days later, my class gonna start. I'm very excited about my new environment. Mom never permitted me to stay over in my friend's house. And here I am. In Chicago all alone  Mom always told me some crazy stuff, like somebody wanted or would harm me or would kidnap me. That's why she never permitted me to hang out with my friends. And I never argued with her about this matter, why she thinks something like that. She's overprotective I know. And I love her.

I'm always mom's girl. So I didn't ask her anything about that. I know, she always does what's best for me. I never doubted her decision. She is one of the best mom and best friend. I'm so grateful to god for giving me a mom like her.

So, today is the first day of the university and I'm very excited to meet new people. Last night I couldn't fall asleep. I got up at 7 in the morning. Then take a shower and make some breakfast.

I'm wearing black pants, baby blue tops and sneakers. I have long hair. It feels better to keep the hair open. Oh Man!!!!! I love my hair very much😌. I'm applying some makeup. I don't like a cake face.

Whatever I'm done with my makeup and everything. Now It's time to leave. Grabbing my backpack, locked the door behind me.

I'm going to start a new journey. I hope it ends beautifully in the end. Always hope for the best.

Now the journey has started. Or I will say the journey is on fire. 😉
