Raven Rivera

Raven Rivera, writes for the 'WestBrook weekly.' Drama hungry, " the girl either everyone loves or loves to hate."

Backstory
Raven's private. She doesn't like people knowing her affairs. Which is Ironic, considering how nosy she is. She loves business especially when it's not her own. Maybe it's distraction from her own life which isn't very eventful. Raven lives with her Grandmother, who has dementia. Thanks to Nancy, the nurse that helps almost everyday, it makes things easier on Raven. Her parents weren't exactly the type to raise a child. Her mother Andrea’s an addict, not with anything in particular. But if it helps her feel numb, she’ll use it. No matter what it is.

When Andrea was 18 she got pregnant, attempted to be a caring mother. When Raven was around 7 years old. her grandmother found out where’d she’d been living, which was in a trailer park off to the side of maine. She decided to take Raven in herself. It wasn’t a place to raise a child, it was a rougher place compared to where she lived. even though she didn’t live in an upstanding community, she thought she could take better care of her. Raven never found out who her father was.

Raven’s tough to deal with closed off, her sarcasm is her defense for her vulnerability. Raven has semi-friends. But never anyone close enough to her to let in.

She lives on the 'slums' side of town. Before her grandmother had gotten too sick she made her transfer school's which upset Raven. She doesn’t talk to the people she used to go to school with.

Being as closed-off as she tries to be, might not be ideal for her.. but it works. "No one's leaving if you don't let them stay."
