A MODERN FAIRYTALE :D Once upon a time… I hate to begin with this‚ starting it off as if it’s a happy story‚ a story that will have the ending of the famous last words; happily ever after. I will start this story again‚ this time with a different set out. One day‚ there was a young naïve girl named Mia who believed in ‘happily ever after’ and thought she had found her prince charming.
