Chapter 1 - Naive
Roses and torns, flowers and petals, beauty outside, pain within. Roses grow torns to protect them from being damaged, as I grew tough to protect my heart from being broken - M.B.
As a young girl I was always peculiar and curious.. my mind wondered and I wanted to feel like I was a part of the crowd. I had many innocent crushes during my early teens.. but none really mattered to me until... I got my first heart break. I had just moved to a new town. My first real encounter with a guy that I called my boyfriend. He was tall, dark, handsome and he was popular. I was only in the 9th grade and he was in the 10th. He was sweet to me and he would message and call me all the time. We never shared a kiss or a hug or anything intimate but I just felt that he was the one for me... I’ll call him K.G. Over time we grew close and still we remained distant in intimacy. I ended up growing close to one of his classmates D.K.B and we were he best of friends. Dee as I would call him was very nice to me, he cared for me very much even though we were young I could tell that he would grow to be a gentleman. One day after school I went home and checked my Facebook to see that K.G was in a relationship with a girl in the 11th grade S.A and it shattered my heart and I didn’t think I would get over him. So fast forward she would show him off around me and try to hurt me and make me feel bad and jealous but I was happy once he was happy that he made the right choice. I grew close to his sister and her best friend and I started to date his cousin who would visit sometimes G.R. In all honesty I didn’t really do it to fall in love but it happened. Again I was still a virgin this guy was a man he wanted to have sex and I refused so I suspected that he was cheating on me. During all of this D.B stuck around he was always there for me. I realized that I had to leave G.R and that it wasn’t right from the start and I allowed people to cause me to make decisions that I knew was wrong.
