Day One of the Legacy
Roxanne Narrating
Hi I'm Roxanne, but you can call me Roxy if you wanna. I am a fiery tempered girl with larger than life dreams.I love the outdoors, am good all around
(most of the time) a natural cook and a bit of a hot head at times.
In my old home in Philadelphia I had a lot of friends I could count on. I had a high flying job as a CEO and a huge condo with skyline views. But everything seemed so fake. I never liked my job and the friends I mentioned, they were all superficial and had parties that caused the police to come and arrest them. So, with a lot of sleepless nights I decided to hail a taxi, give my job the slip and headed for the bustling little town of Sunset Valley.

So I bought a piece of land and didn't even know what it would look like. Turns out it is a little fixer upper. Which in this case means it didn't have a thing on it.
But a little high a little low, right? I spent most of my money on a counter, a stove, a fridge and a cheap thrift store bed.
Yeah, Yeah no bathroom but honestly the kitchen is more of a necessity for me, because my ultimate dream is to become
a culinary prodigy. I want my name to be on cook books and I want to travel to France and eat fancy cheeses. I guess I will have to start from the bottom once again, as in the local diner.
I swam at the local swimming pool for a while and wore myself out. The people here always seem to be on-the-go all the time. I promise myself I won't have a cell phone attached to my ear every second of the day. What I am going to do though is take life slow and follow my dreams.
And on my way home I stumbled upon a guy named Leighton. He is really adorable. They don't make guys like that in Philly I can tell you that. But I'm going to take things slow and see if anything happens. It seems everything is happening on my first day, I can hardly believe it.
And by the end of the day I hit the bed and stared up at the big black sky.
I wished with all my heart it would stay this way.
It didn't.
Come back next time for chapter two!
