isabella pov | 7:09 a.m| sunday
i woke up to the light hitting my face. the branches moving in the wind, the light once in a while coming off of my face. birds talking amongst themselves. i decided to open my eyes a little. getting blinded by the light, closing them once again.
placing my hands underneath my body to lift myself up. turning my head searching for my glasses on my nightstand. placing them on my face, i slid my body out of the sheets. my feet touching the cold ground underneath me.
slipping on my slippers and scooting across the floor. looking around my room, filled with boxes everywhere. i haven't had the time to set up everything yet. i'll get to it soon but I can live with the boxes for now.
walking up to my bathroom and shutting the door behind me. doing my business and shortly after brushing my teeth. pulling my scrunchie out of my hair from last night. keeping all my hair together in a lower ponytail. grabbing my brush on the counter and brushing through my hair thoroughly.
after i did that, i walked back into my room. going back to my nightstand and unplugging my phone from the charger. clicking the power button. 'sunday, january 3rd'. looking down at all my notifications from either twitter or snapchat.
not really caring i turned off the screen and walked to my door. opening it quietly to an empty white hallway. silently walking across the wooden floors, creaking in some places. heading downstairs, looking through all the pictures hanging up. making my way downstairs I walked into the kitchen.
grabbing some cereal from the top shelf. pouring it into a bowl, walking towards the refrigerator. reaching for the milk on the right side.

"good morning sweetie." i shut the door and looked towards my left. my grandma walking into the kitchen with her tea in her right hand. setting it down quietly on the counter.
"good morning grandma." i walked over to her and gave her a hug. kissing her cheek, leaving a smile on her face.
i moved in with my grandma about a week ago due to my parent's deaths. they went to a christmas party and never made it back home. a drunk driver hitting them head-on. pronouncing them dead at the hospital. it makes me upset every day but i try to put a smile on my face.
"i'm going to go out with your aunt today. going to do some thrift shopping, maybe play some bingo later." she said refilling her tea.
"yes, that's fine. i'll make myself some food." i said taking a bite of my cereal.
"you sure?" she questioned my decision.
"yes, i'm sure." i smiled, grabbing my bowl. heading back upstairs towards my room. shutting the door and closing my blinds. crawling back into my bed, pulling out my laptop. clicking onto netflix and finding a new tv show. one that can get me in my feeling about life. finding nothing sad for my taste.
the rest of the day i sat in my bed, rewatching dumb tv shows that made no sense to me. but it was whatever, forgetting about my parents so i wouldn't get more depressed about the situation.
due to their deaths, i have to start a new school. new friends... great i have to make new friends. i always get too scared and chicken out of a conversation. getting to shy, then the worst part is a stutter. tomorrow i'm getting shown around the school, then the day after that i'll start the junior year again.

My World To Live
[Do Not Read this version, New FINAL version uploaded August 9th, 2021 as separate fiction, click to link here on RR. Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence. — Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction — The My World To Live (MWTL) series, the alternative short name is Canaan, is comprised of three books symbolically named My World, To Live, and My World To Live. Two years prior, the entire story had been planned and detailed out from start to finish before actual writing. Thus, the story will never be dropped. While the genre is largely Fantasy, the book is comprised of many other elements including a School Life (Magic Academy) story portion. MWTL has a lot of scattered symbolism and allusions, hence, the mystery aspect. The science fiction elements progressively become more pronounced, and the slow romance is a late bloomer. The female lead is strong and independent, and her backstory and identity unravel as drivers of the plot. Expect lots of action/fighting throughout and scattered philosophical and psychological themes arising. It's a human journey to find the essence of one's living and purpose. What kind of world do I wish to live for? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope to share the journey with you~! Canaan's Original and New Covers: If you're curious about my art and the various covers I made for this series and other authors, I have a RR thread that makes free covers and shows art processes. [October 1, 2020 Notice: Hello, I aplogize to all followers for suddenly taking an extended hiatus. Life threw a lot at my face and then the pandemic happened, so I hadn't been able to write until around the last month when I decided to challenge myself and finish the first book in this series. I am ok now, and thank you for your patience and understanding. No words can express how much every reader means to me. RR was the first writing platform that I ever felt accomplished to any small degree, so I am forever grateful to it. Multiples changes have been made since this final revision and writing of the ending, so please see the latest chapter detailing the update. This also includes my decision to submit this story to the 2020 Wattys contest (the deadline was Sept 30th). That means I will not be posting the updated version of this story on here until the contest is over (since I doubt I'll win anyway lol). And so, if you want to read the full, now completed (woohoo!) story, please go to my Wattpad. Thank you once again, and wishing you all the very best health and happiness! FINAL UPDATE, March 7, 2021: The complete story has been re-posted after the Wattys. This version that was on Wattys is the one being re-posted. However, the Final Version (which will be on a separate book from this to remain organized, and is technically the fifth version of the story xD) will be released May 2021. For more information, please read this update linked here. Thank you to all readers for taking this two year journey with me!
