I had a great life, normal, but good. I grew up in a healthy environment. My childhood was centered around sunshine, cartwheels, and games. My parents were rather easy going, although sometimes strict, they were also caring and protective. I went to school and did well in most of my studies, mainly literature and history. Although I didn’t get a chance to have a ton of friends, I did have a circle of my own, both lovable and weird friends. Finishing high school, I didn’t get into the college I wanted. That was a depressing moment for me but my friends and family continued to cheer me on. With a renewed effort, I concentrated solely on my studies in my university times. Getting out of college, I landed a job in the newspaper agency. I was in a hurry to further my life goals. But in less than a year, the agency shut down and I was laid off. It took me a half a year to get back on my feet. Now I am working in a magazine. It’s not very popular but the wages are good. Overall, my life had been fairly pleasant. While living in a dangerous world, it was lucky that I was not involved in any major incidents in the 23 years of my life. My life had been fun, dotted with important events throughout time, and tomorrow is one of the most important events of my life. My wedding.

I was to be married to the nicest and greatest man I would ever know. I was surprised when he presented me with the ring even when I knew it all along. He is very honest and I love him dearly. I was prepared for an exciting and fun life together with him.
However, my darkest days and greatest challenge took place, on the day my husband-to-be disappeared the day before our wedding.
