Amelia was born on an ordinary Tuesday morning in the dead of winter to Yvonne and Douglas Roberts in the back seat of their shared 1986 Bronco. It was an interesting way to come into the world but the girl felt nothing short of love from either of her parents. Her mother, a waitress and her father, a barber worked hard to provide for their little family especially given the secret that Yvonne held. You see when she met Douglas their romance was a whirlwind and they were engaged to be married within weeks of knowing one another but she was pregnant with another manâs child, Wayne Winslow. She had thought she had found the one with him but he was living a double life and she wasnât going to settle despite loving the man with every fiber of her being. It was mere coincidence or pure luck that she found another so soon and that their romance was anything but out of a movie and Douglas was never the wiser when she came back a month later stating that she was pregnant with his child. They quickly married and seven months later Amelia came to be.
Her childhood was simple and easy; she worked hard during school and then during the summers she would spend them with her grandparents. She was a quiet child, observing more than interacting and taking in everything around her. Of course as time went on, she became more outgoing but still reserved. She was captain of her high schools dance squad, president of student council, yearbook editor, and even valedictorian when the time came. Her life was the way that she envisioned it when she was younger and she had no complaints about anything really. After high school came college and she went to the University of Utah for English Teaching as she had always been fascinated with reading and writing. She, thankfully, got a full ride there and her parents couldnât have been more proud of the woman that they had raised and Amelia couldnât have been more excited for her future.
With a lot of sweat, blood, and tears Amelia made her way through college with a breeze behind her. Six years total, she found herself with a new degree and a license to teach high school English. She got a job at the high school she attended working with Seniors and it was everything that she hoped it would be and more. On her 24th birthday, she reluctantly agreed to go out with some co-workers where she met Kyle a bartender that worked at the bar they had decided to go to in the next town over. They hit it off immediately and before she could even think straight they were in a relationship. She had never felt like this before and it was everything that she had wanted and more. And it was perfect bliss for the first few months and then things changed. The lies he told were more frequent when she knew he was cheating and he made her believe that she was losing her mind. He started to talk to her friends about her crazy behavior defending his actions to them as if she were to blame. She had broken up with him too many times to count but with a sorry and bouquet of flowers, she was forgiving.
After one of their many break-ups and screaming matches, he laid his hands on her and left finger shaped bruises on her arms from holding her down so she wouldnât leave. She told herself that it was nothing and wore sweaters to hide them until they were gone. This happened quite often and it was during this time that she had gotten a message from someone claiming to be her half-brother. They had talked and he introduced himself as Wesley and it was like she felt a piece that she hadnât known to be missing out back into place. Their relationship was easy and she trusted him enough to tell him about what was going on with Kyle. And she also told him about the pregnancy that she had found out just a few weeks prior and he told her that he would help her get out. They had spoken for hours on the phone and would speak more than she even spoke to her parents and she knew that she was going to be saved. During this time, she was still dealing with an abusive Kyle and she refused to speak to her parents after finding out that they lied so Wesley was really the only one that she trusted.
He had found her an affordable apartment and got everything sorted for her while also helping her get a restraining order against Kyle and she was out of that relationship by the time that she was five months pregnant. Her and Wesley still spoke pretty much every day until she just didnât hear from him. She told herself it was because he was busy and so was she trying to work and get ready for this new baby that was about to join her in just a few months. But after not hearing from him for quite some time, she decided to look and see what happened. She scoured the internet and made some calls to come and find out that he had passed. To say that she was distraught was the understatement of the century and she felt like she had been kicked in the stomach.
He was her saving grace and she never got to meet him in person. It was the one regret that she had and she grieved him for a long time and even when her daughter, Ivy, was born on March 18, 2015 she had him to thank her their safety. She still moved to the apartment that he had gotten her in Nashville, a place where she could feel closer to him. During her transition to Nashville, she found an ad about a social media manager position at Anybody Records and it sounded like the perfect job for her and her daughter. It allowed her to be home while also providing a stable income that she knew wouldnât be possible otherwise. Itâs been a rough ride along the way but every day is an adventure that she is enjoying.
