There was once a young girl who grew up surrounded by her loving mother and grandparents. She was a good girl, the apple of their eyes, and a joy to them every day. She was that chipper, girl-next-door that you can't help but like. Or hate. She enjoyed learning to garden and cook from her mother and grandmother, and even how to brew things from her grandfather. Until a possessive boyfriend came into the picture, life was idyllic.


After breaking up with the boyfriend, it was decided a change was needed, and after finding information on a city in California, this country girl decided to pack up and move. Kissing her family goodbye and promising to keep in touch, a bus ticket was bought and away she went.


Arriving new to Prospect, not only was an apartment found, but a job and a fast friend in Joe. The two combined resources and opened their own dive, Joe's Pizza and Beer. The place seems to be a success overall. For a while, it was run by the two, then later, by just Joe when Anabelle had to return home for some family business. Upon her return, it would seem that Joe's been missing, leaving her to handle the place by herself.
