Chapter 2

Cyrene walker turns and stares at herself in a grainy, cracked bedroom mirror, touches up her face. very pretty, knowing, outwardly confident. She is in her middle twenties, Glowing softly radiant, she was Goddess a female of incredible beauty. Next to her is her sister, Emma, an endearingly unkempt puppy of seventeen years old, whose face has the unguarded responsiveness of a child. At the moment, she is hunched in her corner and all Cyrene sees is her shaggy hair, her scruffy sandals, and the book she's reading-'A Court Of Thorns And Roses.'

"How do you always manage to get up early in the morning to read the same old boring book".....She asked Emma annoyingly...

"Like you always wake up to see your dumb face in the cracked mirror"....Emma fired back at her.

Cyrene huffed angrily and went to the bathroom, she come out after 15min done with her morning routine, and picked a Knee-length jeans skirt and v-neck shell with a pair of flats.

"Come on Emma we are already late for breakfast"...Duo left the room and down the stairs and reached the table

Both greeted their dad Good morning and he greeted them back happily and said..." Come have breakfast it's already late"

They were both seated at the table and Cyrene said..."da-dad, I have something to say"....

"What?..What do you want again....We raised you for past twenty-two years...is not enough for you"...My mother burst out in rage..

I remembered that I was not their own daughter actually I never forgot that I'm an adopted young lady of this family. Nobody knows how I end up on their doorstep when I was one year old. My father took me and loved me as his own daughter and he thinks because of me he become rich and respected in town. But my mom thinks I'm a burden to them as they have two daughters in the house. Emma and Elaine are twin sister but one loves me with her all heart yet another hate me to the core.

"No mom ....I don't want anything ...I just wanted to ask dad to send Emma along with me to the city...I got hired by the Knight group of companies "..... Actually, I have applied for many companies but was never expected to hire by Knight's...
