Confession of Hanna

Marjorie is on the verge of despair. She is starting to lose interest in her writing. she needed something, anything! and she needs it fast. after receiving her first award as the rising writer, she also started to feel the pressure it has. now, she is having doubt if she could write another success. voice from her parents echoed in her mind "What kind of future is that! our family is known in Politics and medicine Majorie! what will the people think of us because of you" the shout of frustration and anger from her father echoes through the dining area "Sweetie, we have given you everything that you want" "Ma, and i have followed you wish. I finished the course that you wanted! can you just understand that I don't want to be what you want?" "And what do you want?write yourself to death? Does being a writer can bring food to your plate? can that give you the recognition? can it contribute in our family? "it will definitely make your only daughter happy" after that, Marjorie packed her things and stormed off. Her older brother Kane, was shocked to hear the news and called her immediately, after hearing her side, Kane just laughed and praised her for her guts. "I never would like to see our fathers bad side, Don't worry, your big bro will always support you" with her big brother's help, she was able to have a place and things she needed to start her career as a writer. Kane even introduced Mike to be her editor in chief. She then started to use pen names in her stories. After a few months, she finished two novels and gained recognition as one of the youngest writers. now she has a partnership with a publishing house and was able to live a comfortable, modest life. the life far from politics, gossip and even enemies which she always likes to have. "Maybe you need to go somewhere to have a new perspective? or try and talk to people and see if you can get any ideas" Mike, her editor and friend suggested which also put her out of her trance. But writing inside her house is all that she could do! "But you know i cannot do that!" Marjorie hesitated "Just because you're an introvert means you can stay and lock yourself up. Maybe this is the right time for you to try and gather materials for your next project". mike reasoned out "Anyways, it will never hurt until you try right?" he encourage Marjorie pauses. maybe, just maybe. and besides, she wanted to have a different version of herself but have the opportunity to try. "Okey. i'll try. But i will be gone for a week or maybe more. So, you just take care of everything okay?" "As always" mike replied. she definitely needs to challenge herself this time.
