‘The death of Rebecca and John Hathaway came as a huge shock to us all ‘ Madam Beatrice removed her glasses ,cleaned her tears, and put it back on as she continued her doleful speech. Madam Beatrice who happens to be the younger sister of late Rebecaa Hathaway who happens to be Veronica’s mother has been giving the liberty to give a speech at Veronica’s parent funeral.

The little Veronica, stood with her babysitter feeling despondent over the sudden death of her parent ,she was just seven and never knew what death means until her Nanny Charlotte told her what it means .She had cried herself to sleep the previous night, constantly throwing tantrums,asking for her mother and father,but it never occured to the little girl that they are gone and will never come back again.

Rebecca and John Hathaway, the late parent of Veronica Hathaway were an extremely wealthy family in England in the year 2000,but they never knew they were going to meet their end when they agreed to be VIPs at an opera show in New York.

‘Veronica Hathaway here is now my responsibility and i promise to raise her to be a fine young lady and carry on the great legacy of the Hathaway family ‘ Aunt Beatrice said as everyone applauded her like she just made one the world most commendable speech at Veronica’s parent funeral .Well maybe she did,but Veronica knew something about this woman was off from the first day she saw her ,she sounds so fake.

Beatrice Alfred was given legal custody of Veronica Hathaway as she was made to move to her house , it wasn’t as big and as fancy as her late parents mansion, but it was still pretty comfortable ‘i promise to take care of precious Veronica over here’ Beatrice beamed as she car-ssed Veronica’s cheek

‘Well that good Miss Alfred ,i will be here tomorrow to check up on you ‘ Mr Patrick ,the Hathaway’s lawyer said as he adjusted his glasses and look up with a broad smile ‘ see you tomorrow miss Alfred ‘ he waved as he walked out of the house

‘Finally, that one is out of the way ‘ Beatrice Snorted with disgust as she threw her hand in the air dramatically, she looked down at me ‘ and you little girl ‘ she said with a sneer ‘The only reason i wanted to adopt you was because there is nothing i want more than your parents wealth,but unfortunately i cannot have them until you at least 18 ,now i have to keep you in this Cabin that has barely enough room for my sweet loren and i ‘she said while car-ssing Loren her little daughter’s face ‘ i must say ,there is simply no room for you here ,you will just have to sleep in the cold attic’

‘I do not want to sleep in the attic ‘ Veronica protested, she knew from the start that her aunt Beatrice was a witch and had no love for her,she has always hated her even when her parents were still alive.

‘Oh you don’t say, now you have the guts to argue with me ? ‘ she glowered ‘ i must have you know that i will be extremely pleased to punish you if you go against my rules ‘

‘But loren over here has a room ‘ Veronica said pointing at Loren

‘So?’

‘So can’t we share ?’Veronica asked

‘Mother i do not want her in my room ,i want to stay alone in my room ‘ Loren yelled as she folded her arms and pressed her l-ips together firmly signifying her anger

‘Hush my dear ,you should know mama won’t let that happen’ Beatrice glared at Veronica before saying ‘ you will sleep in the attic and that is it ‘

‘I do not want to sleep in the attic’

‘I will teach you a lesson ‘she said as she grabbed Veronica’s hand while little Veronica was struggling to get her hands free from Beatrice ‘ stay here and don’t you dare make a noise’ she warned as she locked her in the cold dark attic

Veronica sat down on the cold attic floor as she stared at the small window in the attic ,it was dark ,dirty and very cold

She was too young and innocent to go through all this .She knew her aunt never liked her but it never occured to her that she will go this far just to show her extreme hatred for her .

She had different memories of her mother and father has tears rolled down her eyes.

If they are truly gone like her nanny told her ,maybe that is the end for her .she is all alone in the this poor world with her aunt who wants nothing from her but legal inheritance of her parents property

‘Mummy, daddy, where are you, people told me you have gone to the stars but i want to know when you will come back ,come back to me ,Aunt Beatrice doesn’t like me at all ,she can never take care of me ,if you do not come back from the stars then i will have to live with her forever and then i will have to stay in this Cold room for ever and i do not want to stay in this room, it dark and scary in here’ She wiped the tears that ran down her cheek as she continued Soliloquizing ‘Please come back from the stars Mummy and daddy ,please come back ‘ Tears ran freely down her eyes as she has no control of them anymore, she needed her mother and father more than anything, and right now that all that trully matters to her.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thirteen years passed and Veronica was now a full grown twenty years old lady . Her evil aunt Beatrice had gain legal rights of her parents property when she was just eighteen and her aunt only spent the money on herself and her daughter .

Loren was sent to a private high school while Veronica on the other hand was enrolled into a public college not as prestigious and has expensive has loren but was still very okay and the part thay really saddens the heart was the fact that her aunt Beatrice told her that she will only sponsor her education when she works at a stripper at a strip club she owns just because Veronica happens to be really pretty.

‘Veronica, Veronica ‘ her friend jessie called as she ran behind her

❤VERONICA POV❤
‘ Hey jessie ,how are you ?’ I asked as i closed the big English textbook in my hand and dipped it in my bag

‘I am cool ,i have been calling you for awhile but you seem to be so focused on your book’

‘Yes ,i am …we have an exam coming up ,so i have to study hærd ..i want to maintain my perfect grades ‘

‘Oh you nerd ,i sort of wish i was like you,all you ever do is focus on your studies while i was forced to go to college by my dad who for some reasons want me to be lawyer ‘

‘Lucky you,i mean i will go to college without anyone asking me to ,but here you are having a dad to sponsor your education ‘ i said with a my normal cold expression as i removed the string of hair from my face

‘And yea Veronica, we friends but you never invite me to your house ,i assume am your bestfriend since you never talk to anyone else in college just me ‘

‘Yea ,not a big fan of inviting friends to ny house and beside my aunt wouldn’t like that idea’

‘You live with your aunt? ,never told me that and we have been friends for like months ‘ jessie said

‘Yea ,it must have skipped my mind’i tucked my hair behind my ear and shrugged ‘i think i have to go ,have a lecture in five minute and i do not wanna miss it ‘

‘Yea sure..bye ‘ Jessie said while i nodded and walked away

My wh0le life i never had any friend and i never needed one either .i enjoy shutting everyone out cause after my parent accident and the inhumanely way my aunts treats me . I am scared and afraid to love anyone else or have anyone close to me . I am scared to make friends because i dread the fact that at the end of the day ,everyone i love and care about ends up leaving me. All alone in this cruel world. Jessie thinks she is my friend cause she is the only girl i talk to in college but i do not consider her my friend ,i consider her to be an acquaintance, i barely even know her and inviting her to my house will be nothing but wierd …and besides what could be more embarrassing than her finding out that my room is a cold, dark dirty basement in my parents mansion.

‘Hey Nica ‘Albert a really handsome guy who never misses an opportunity to talk to me greeted on my way to lecture

‘Hey i told you already, my name is Veronica okay .. do not call me nica ‘i corrected him as i walked pass him

‘I was wondering if you would like to have lunch with me later in the day?’

‘Sorry i can’t ,am busy ‘ i said

‘Then would you like to do something together later in the day ?’he asked

‘Well no can do Albert , we have exams coming up soon ,i have to study so i do not think i am available now ‘

‘Oh ..okay Cool’

‘Yea bye ‘ i waved as i walked away

Jessie made me believe Albert is crushing on me but for some reason i do not believe that cause he is like one of the hottest guy in school and even though he likes me ,i can never like him back and am just going to shut him out like everyone

Immediately after school, i resumed my work of being a stripper at my aunt’s strip club …i really do not enjoy this but apparently this is the only condition i was given if i want to remain in the house and also go to college

I really want to take my parents property from her

‘Hey s€×y b**ch ‘ a man old enough to be my dad said as he slapped my butt

I hate my life and didn’t like all the harassment i face each and everyday from different guys

I hate dancing on a pole unclad and i hate my aunt so much and I hate her daughter loren ,i hate my parents for leaving me behind and most of all i hate this world

I walked into the house later in the night and walk straight to my room or should I say basement . I switched on my lamp and settled down in my room

‘I need to study ‘ i said as i brought out my textbook to study..i heard some sounds downstairs as i opened my door and walked down the stairs . I saw loren dressed in a very ritzy outfit sneaking into the house as she held her shoes in her hands .she had lots of make up on so i immediately assumed she is coming from one of her late night party she went to without her mums permission . Even though Loren is 17, aunt Beatrice can be really controlling and treats her like she is fifteen which is one of the reason she forbids her from going to late night parties

‘Loren ,you out again without aunt permission ‘

‘She sighed and tucked her hair behing her ear ‘do you mind ,i am not in the mood to listen to your nonsense, so get out of my way’

‘Whatever ‘i said as i turned my back and walked away

‘Talk about annoying ‘ Loren muttered

What her problem anyway, whatever happens between her and her mum is their business

The next morning, i was woken up by noises and i decided to walk downstairs to see what is going on

‘Mum why did you check my phone ‘Loren shouted

‘I saw a protection in your bag and some guy sent you a message thanking you for last night….were you out last night even after i forbid you to go to those parties ‘

‘Mum am not a kid anymore, can you just chill out please ‘

‘I will hit you ,did you tell anyone before leaving ? ‘ Aunt Beatrice asked while Loren looked aroud,her eyes stopped on me and she said ‘i told Veronica and she saw me coming back too’

‘What the…?’

‘Yes Veronica, tell mum the truth ‘ Catherine said

‘No i didn’t..i mean she didn’t tell me anything ‘ i said

Aunt Beatrice turned towards my direction and asked ‘ did she or did she not ask you for your permission ‘

‘No aunt she didn’t ‘

‘Well did you or did you not see her sneaking in last night?’she asked again

‘Well aunt i did but…..’i couldn’t finish my sentence before a slap landed on face ..i held my cheek as my eyes glistened with tears… i turned to look at loren who had a mischievous smile on her face ,she seems to be so pleased with all this.

‘You saw that and you couldn’t even tell me ,now tell me how should i punish you ?’ Aunt Beatrice asked

‘Aunt i didn’t ‘

‘Stop trying to defend yourself Veronica, you made a mistake so you should be punished ‘ one of the nosey maid in thirties Amanda said..Aunt Beatrice didn’t make me inferior to the maids so the maids assumes am one of them and has no respect whatsoever for me ‘i think you should make her clean the entire house’

‘Well it is decided,today you won’t be going to college instead you will do all the works in the mansion with no help whatsoever from the maid’

‘But aunt Beatrice ‘

‘Don’t you dare argue ‘ she said as she walked away

I glared at Loren who made fun of me

‘That just a tip of an iceberg loren ,next time try to mind your business and stop spying on me…bye bye looser ‘ she said as she walked away

See why i said i hate my life

Her daughter is at fault but i get blamed not telling her

I hate both Beatrice and Alfred

I miss my mom and dad

They shouldn’t have left me behind
