<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Hi, my name is Elli Blue. They say I’m a regular teenage girl with my regular teenage needs and my regular teenage interests. I like pop stars, bubble gums and I like romantic movies. My parents Doris and Leander moved into Sunset Valley because of a conflict with my uncle and my grandfather. Fled from my past, I landed in this strange, though interesting town.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">When we were unpacking, someone called at the door. I looked out of the window of the door and I saw a girl, a bit older then me. She looked nice and I asked her if she wanted to come in.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Hi”, I said.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Hi”, she said back, “my name is River McIrish, I live her across the street. I saw that this house is finally inhabited and uhm… I just wanted to come out! It’s a beautiful summer day today!”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Well, how nice of you”, I said, “shall we take a walk? I’m a bit tired of all that unpacking.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:Verdana">“Allright, I’ll take you to the beach! It’s one of my favourite places around, and it’s a beautiful, sunny day which makes it perfect to hang out on the beach.” </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Ok.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Then we left the house off to the beach. She was very nice to me, but… she seemed a little strange. I asked her a few questions:</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">[[File:Beach.png|thumb|300px|River and Elli at the beach]]“So, do you have any brothers or sisters?”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Nope, I don’t even have a father. My mom’s a famous journalist, she comes on TV a lot, you should watch tonight, there has been an accident this morning at Maywood Glen and she was the reporter. My mom had a difficult youth and now her and my life are under control. Well, they were…”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Why?”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“It must have been two years ago, my mother’s best friend Molly French was at the door. She stood there in terrible tears, carrying a baby. I called my mother. She asked her to come in. We both sat in the living room listening to her story: “He’s left”, she said in tears. My mother tried to console her and after five minutes she felt strong enough to tell: “We were so happy. We loved each other, we partied together, we drunk together, and then… I got pregnant. He relied me and he said he was fine. And I showed him our little Sandi, and he was gone!”. Tears streamed down her face. And now that slob lives with her annoying baby. She goes out every night and at 1 PM, she comes out of her bed to go to work. So actually we have to take care of Sandi.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Oh gosh, what terrible. I think I know why you wanted to spend your Sathurday somewhere else.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Well, I have a friend in town, Claire Ursine. She’s almost 30 years old, but we understand each other, her heart was also broken…”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family:Verdana">“What do you mean also broken?” </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Well, Molly’s heart was broken and unfortunately I have to live under the same roof with that b****.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“All right, all right. So Claire, what was her problem?”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Well, she is attending a baby with Jared Frio, an insensible jerk. He heard she was pregnant and he knew they would have come serious, so he left.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“What a pretty little town up here.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Well, there are very fortunate people here too. Why don’t you join us at the diner Wednesday? I’ll introduce you to some of the friends of our age.”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">“Sounds like fun!”</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">[[File:Night.png|thumb|left|300px]]So, I made my first move to be a social butterfly around town and that makes me quite proud at myself. We lied at the beach for a couple of hours and we chit-chatted for a little while. I told her about my life so far and she told me she’s graduating soon and she would like to be a famous artist later on. Everyone in the village has its own interesting story, and I think there are still a lot to discover.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">I went back home and we had dinner in silence. The feel has been like that for a few months and now I’m getting used to it. Our house is getting liveable again and tonight I first slept in my own bedroom. Full of curiosity for what the next day will bring and processing all the stories River told me, I went to bed.</span></p>
