Mia was overjoyed and started writing her first book and as she was writing she wanted to make a difference in life. she did not know if she wanted to write a nonfiction or fiction book she felt like she wanted to tell the truth about her life story about how she accomplished dark shadows that was holding her back from being who she was really and truly to be. Mia always had dreams and changed the world for people to have a better understanding in people's lives. Mia never gave up she always kept the strength and the faith because of her grandmother. even though that her parents wasn't stable to take care of her and that they were on drugs that didn't change who she was deep down inside because she know that people make mistakes and that people can change she just didn't understand why she got mistreated and thinking that they didn't want her anymore. her dad always dealt with his problems as being very aggressive and will take the promise out on her and her mom. it didn't makes sense to her why her dad was so angry all the time I noticed that it always be when he drinks. Mia watched her mom get beaten by her dad numerous times Mia wanted to call the police but her mom told her no baby that's just a little sick that everything will be okay and we'll go back to normal. Mia continue on writing her story thinking about her past but it didn't stop anything that made her stronger Mia was so excited that Mia wanted nothing but the best for her and her grandma she wanted to surprise her grandmother and let her know that she's really writing and really accepting her dream so MIA kept writing kept writing she just wanted to keep going to where it can get finished and published. so now it was time for me to get ready for bed she just was so excited that she didn't want to stop writing but Mia said okay I'll just finish writing tomorrow maybe tomorrow be a great day to I have nothing but ideas. the very next morning Mia woke up with a smile on her face exciting to be able to tell Grandma how many pages she have accomplished. as Mia getting ready for school she grabs her book and put it in her book bag Mia closes her door to her room and says grandma are you ready? already Grandma says okay let's go as they open the door to the car Mia starts smiling her grandma says what's going on with you why are you smiling Mia replied nothing just happy Grandma I have a question do you think Mom and Dad will be excited for me if I tell them that I'm writing a book about my life. her grandma replied I mean of course they wouldn't have a choice but to be happy why? should they not be happy? Mia replied because it's about my whole life nothing but the truth I'm not going to write a Fake story Grandma replied yeah I understand that. So MIA explains She won't be able to be all up in the Story as she writes,Mia says I would not like it and I think that I failed because it's not coming from my heart, Grandma replied yes baby I love that motivation that you have. Mia said thanks Grandma I love you you're the best so is there a writer in me or? Grandma's turn on her gospel music for no giving up and not to get discouraged and whatever you do always have faith, and God knows your heart and your prayers will be answered never forget that Grandma says too Mia, Mia said Grandma I love this song it's so motivation grandma, grandma said I know that's what I listen to every morning to keep me going. okay we here grandma says okay we are here now have a great day and remember keep your head up Mia replied yes ma'am. Mia shuts the door to the car and waved by Mia's friend walks up to her it says what's going on girl said nothing much then her friend says girl how did that book come out me reply it's coming out good I think her friend says what do you mean you think Mia say as well what does she think if I was to tell my parents about my book that I'm writing which is about my life how would they feel and her friend says they should be proud of you girl you have nothing to worry about she said yeah you're right but I'm telling my whole life story One of Mia's other friend replied nothing should be wrong with that you didn't make the mistakes that happen in your life you didn't even ask to come in this life our parents made us so whatever I'll come that we experience or went through is based on our parents so they can be proud of you but I would just add some different encouragement words not too much as putting them down you know. Mia says yeah you right but I don't but I do not have too much to say good about my father he's the main problem that made me and mom's life hell me and friend says well think of it this way you're doing good now you're happy you live with your grandma so your story should be expiring telling about the greatness that you have a accomplished and hopefully others will get out the dark and open up just like you have so I think it's a pretty darn good idea.As they enters the classroom and go to their seats Mia looked at her friend with a slightly grin and says today is going to be a great day watch and see. Mia couldn't wait to sit down and take her book out and was thinking of ideas as she was sitting down in classroom then all the sudden she got traumatized with a vision as if she heard her dad's voice saying come here a little b**** sit down why the hell are you sitting there writing what the f*** are you writing about Mia got tear eyed all a sudden and shook her head like what the hell just happened she looked around to see if anybody noticed how she reacted when she was writing in her book Mia says oh God.

Brandy passed a piece of paper to Mia and on it said are you okay you are looking like something's on your mind I attacked the wrong as she was boiling the paper up shaking her head yes I'm fine Bradley said okay quietly. Brandy just looked off into space thinking how can she help her friend tell her what's going on because she know that something's bothering her but she was in the middle of class so she couldn't wait to class was over to pull her best friend to the side and find out. as class is going on Mia was very focused but in the daze as Mr Chad ask Mia a serious question about protesting. Mia responded protesting? Mr Chad said yeah what did you think about the whole situation how the world had changed that quickly to people protesting against one another and you had others protesting with any and everybody that was okay with downing one another instead of lifting each other up what do you think about that Mia ? Mia says I think that everything was a understanding because the president at the time had everybody falling with him but really he wasn't with them so it did lot of confusion and the world to make family fight mothers and kids older adults and young adults being a mixture of fighting to where I thought it would never end. everyone clapped great job Mia, Mr Chad says now class did y'all get any understanding and what MIA just explained to you guys, the class said yes we do there was some words that I was going to say too but she put it all together to make us understand great job. Mia smile and felt a little different from this morning now that she see that she is a life changer like Grandma said. the bell ring as the class got their things together to leave Brandon pulled me up by the arm and said now my time let's go what Brandy said no one something's bothering you you're my best friend and you can't lie mia says it's nothing bothering me Brandy as they grab their lunch tray. Mia said okay Brandy it's just my baby sister Kayla showed up at the door early this morning in the cold by herself crying knocking at the door for Grandma Brady said what are you kidding me excuse me that ain't supposed to come out like that but girl is she's okay? Mia says yes her dad dropped her off can you believe that and just left her what if we wasn't here you know but thank God we got it in time before someone else. that's too much too much friend yeah yeah but let's change the subject I'll tell you more another time just not right now okay no problem. okay the bell ring it was time to go home Brandy gave me a big hug and said girl call me Brandy said I will when I get a chance it's a bit busy now it's just me and Grandma now my little sister will be fine me and grandma go'e put KK in school. Brandy said we'll chat later on the phone Mia says okay boo. Mia walks out the door and there was KK standing outside the car door waiting on her big sister with a big smile on her face Mia was like hey you miss me where is Grandma Kayla says right there misses I don't see her or are you driving Kayla says no I'm not missing did you take care of grandma KK says yes Grandma been writing since this morning grandma says yeah we took a nap watch tv and ate a little until it was'time to pick you up Mia's buckle her seat belt and make sure those KK have hers on also Grandma pulls off and says how was your day Mia said Grandma you not going to believe it I got asked a question that I hardly knew about it well, i knew about but it just the way that I was going to explain it I didn't want to put it too much like I was preaching, and I didn't want to put it too much like I was making up stuff. so I just combined it all what I knew together and put it in a respectful way for everyone to agree if they did agree because you know they had all that drama
