It is a yesterday's story not today's. soa natural?
I'd like to know my mistakes even if they are small things.
And I'd like to know the natural expression for this.

@white270 No worries at all! Keep up the good work! 😊
To answer your question, if you substitute the [from] with [of] as in your example, it wouldn't be correct, no.
This is due to the tense. By using the word [from] as opposed to [of] you are putting the sentence in the correct tense, as anything involving yesterday is something that has already passed and thus the tense needs to reflect that.

It's a little unnatural, some more natural examples would include:
"It is a story from yesterday, not today."
"It is yesterday's story, not today's."

Thank you very much;)
May I ask a question?
If I use "of" instead of "from", is it wrong?
It is a story of yesterday, not today.
