Chapter 1 Her past
A woman could be seen sitting and from her posture you could tell she was in deep thought. She remembered granny Tyle's words before taking her last breath,"you' ll suffer, I'll make sure of it, even in death you will be suffering ". She couldn't get the thought out of her head, how could she suffer for what she knew nothing about?, she knew of Granny's hatred towards her but the curse, that was heartbreaking.
'Honey, why all the worrying?' She quickly adjusted herself, faking a smile for her already knowing husband. 'Why all the shakes?', he was a husband material, she usually wonders how she was lucky to have him.
" Nothing just thinking about my daughter ", he laughed and she smirked at him. " you don't have to", he said, " it worries me that we can't tell her the truth and if she finds out, it'll be disastrous ", she said, " I know but let's give her some time okay", he said as he hugged her, " I hope all will be okay ", she said.

" I love it when u call me señorita, I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya".
The song by Selena Gomez , was popping loudly from Maryanne's room. She was getting ready for school, a true belle.She was about strapping her bag when her phone rung, "hi Miranda .......yes gonna shoot my shot today, dont you trust me anymore..... You know i am a novice in romantic matters...haha, see you soon bye".
Maryanne was neither good nor bad, but she was sure not a good or bad human being. As she made for the door, her mom stopped her " won't you eat, you didn't come out for dinner, come, come and eat....wait young miss, why are u putting on contact lenses and dressed like a slut, ooooo its about Godfrey right....you won't get a guy by changing yourself Maryanne" Anneliese yelled with furrowed brows. She turned and removed her headphone as she stared at her, " I bought the lenses, what's wrong with it", she asked.
" you want to impress a boy by looking fake, first think about this, does he like you or are just friends?, is he a playboy?, do you know him well?",Annelise advised further, " its better you stay away from him because from the looks of him I smell trouble ". " I wonder at times if you are my mother because I wish u weren't ", she said as it earned her a slap from her father , " don't you dare talk to her like that again ", he warned, " what did I say wrong I don't have any childhood memories, no pics or even my own memories ", she shouted.
" honey we told you already, you had an accident and that's why you can't re.......", she interrupted, " enough of that crap , I refuse to believe it, you guys always forget my birthday, you don't support my wishes, da is always clinging to mum, remember the time you guys forgot me at your friend's house, where do I belong in this picture ?", she asked, " that's your business young lady", Edward said nonchalantly to get elbowed by his wife " awww honey, that hurts" he said as their daughter made for the door " at least have some toast", Annelise pleaded,
She just rolled her eyes, turned around, staring into her mothers eyes" its not ur biz whether I eat or starve, I prefer to eat junk than stand here and watch you yelling at me" she scoffed and matched straight to her car.
She stared at the grandeur of the house and tapped her self, "I'll make sure I make this money and power, I'll show you all what Maryanne Starling can do, I'll make this world crumble and bow before me" she smirked, reaching for her phone she dialled " hello mum.....take ur drugs and quit worrying.... I'll eat something ", " my dear don't do anything that will make you bow your head in shame, remember that I love you", she said.
" Don't worry, I'd never bow to anyone, I rather die and you know that", she said as she hung up and drove off.
At Marvin's college:
"Godfrey, Godfrey, Godfrey........", every one cheered for him as he alighted from his car. Godfrey Thornton, the son of a successful business man and his mother, a well-known celebrity model and fashionista.
Since his arrival at the school, the college has known no peace, his good looks and fashion style added to the fact that he is intelligent and well-known social media celebrity because of his dance skill but he couldn't beat the schools slay queen, Maryanne starveling, a beautician and makeup artist.
She is the daughter of the famous business man and her mother, a well reputed model and lawyer.
The both of them rocked the school vibes, she is very intelligent and vast.
Godfrey winked at the ladies as they were all swooned, his friends took his bag as they put on the large speaker. Everyone hailed him as he showed off his latest moves, he grooved to masked wolf song - astronaut in the ocean.
Everyone brought out their phone as they video and streamed it life. Every one scrambled as the badass queen arrived in her new car, she stepped out as she adjusted her dress and hair, all the boys were awed, she maintained her cold face as girls ran to take her bag as she munched her lollipop while twirling the key around her fingers, she closed her eyes, leaned her back on the car as she listened to the song from her head phone.
" what do you think you are doing", she said as she slapped a guy who obviously wanted to touch her, he glared at her, " and do you think you are a gem or something that should just be admired from afar", he asked.
She smirked as everyone watched what was happening, she kicked him and caught his wrist as he meant to punch her. Everyone hailed on.
