Dear Diary

Summary:

For her 10th birthday, Raine was gifted a diary.
Spoiler alert : she's terrible at remembering to use it.

Notes:

Welcome to the fic that I've been working on since September 15th 2022. I got annoyed with how many damn entries would be required to pull this off so I gave up temporarily and then I stumbled upon the Google Doc I'd been writing this in and I was like "oh yeah I could finally finish this" and then I immediately hated myself for having that thought cuz it meant actually putting effort into this agiain lol Wow, that was a run-on sentence if I've ever seen one 😂
Anyway, I tried my best to make this decent, but know that I hate a bunch of it (would I be a writer if I didn't?). Also, each entry has a chapter, because I wanted this to read like a diary would!
Thanks in advance for reading!

Chapter 1: Age 10 - Entry 1

Chapter Text

Momma and daddy got me you for my birthday. They said I could use you to “document my thoughts”... whatever that means. I don’t have anything to write about. I didn’t even know that I was supposed to start by writing “dear diary”. What’s so dear about you? You’re just a diary. I can’t see what’s so special about that. Momma says that she writes in hers before going to bed every night and that it helps her relax. I don’t think I’m that dedicated so I’ll probably forget about you a lot, like maybe only write once in a while. 

It’s not like you have feelings anyway so it doesn’t really matter.

Raine (10)

(PS: Did I do this right?)
