This is a made up story about a stranger I saw at Starbucks. It's totally fiction, and just a story about what her past might have been. :) Everything, even her name, is what my mind came up with.
Delilah McKuck.
Her hair is as black as night and very straight. She had a troubled childhood. When she was only seven, her parents got a divorce. Ever since, she lives with her father. Delilah was a daddy's girl and loved being with her father. She was such a tomboy, and didn't like girlie things. When Delilah turned 13, her father remarried. It was hard on her, and in no time, delilah wasn't too fond of Marianne. When Delilah was in 10th grade, the tomboy stage started to wear off. She stared to want to look pretty, have a boyfriend, and be more like a girl. The influence of her friends was huge, and pretty soon she was set in life. She also was now one of the most popular girls in school, and everyone wanted to be her friend.
As Delilah finished highschool, her father divorced Marianne. Marianne had become a friend to Delilah during her teen years. She had helped so much. When Marianne left, Delilah demanded to go live with her. So she did. Marianne was able to put Delilah through college, and Delilah was very grateful. When Delilah turned 20, she moved in with her boyfriend Jerry. They had been seeing each other for over 6 months and soon were to be married.
After a few months of living with Jerry, and seeing his true character, Delilah decided to break up with him, and leave. This didn't set well with Jerry, but nothing could be done. He couldn't force her to stay. She went back to live with her father, who gladly accepted her to his home. He was now happily remarried again and had two children, a daughter and a son. Now, Delilah was doing alright in life. She worked at Macayo's and currently was dating a sweet guy named Rick. When she first broke up with Jerry, she started smoking, and ever since, it helped east some of the pain and sorrow in her life. It made her feel better, and more alive. She enjoyed her life, for the most part. If only there was something else. All she wanted now was to find peace in her life, and she longed for it.
