NYC, New York

Natalia glanced out the window of her studio appartment, trying to keep mostly behind the curtains and out of view from anyone who might be in the street below. She hated living there but it was the only thing she could afford and still be able to go to school... not that she'd be able to do that much longer either. Too many people went to the little Mom & Pop store below her appartment, it had seemed quiet enough the day she came by to look at it but that had been a down right lie that probably had to do with the fact that it had been hailing when she had showed up. The little old woman had been nice enough letting her rent the studio appartment; it hadn't been used since her son had just disappeared without a word. People had been disappearing a lot lately. Seems like that was all that came across her desk at work, not that it bothered Natalia at all, and some of the situations had been rather sketchy to say the least.
Letting out a heavey sigh, Natalia went back to her desk in the corner and settled down to write more. She had been working on this story for a while now and it seemed like it might be coming to an end soon. She never had a plan for what she was writting... it just seemed to come out on it's own if she let it. If only her worlds were true, someone would finally see her for who she was instead of being rude about how she looked.
