Ever think about falling in love with your bully's brother? As if Being an orphan and working as a maid weren't enough, Bismika had to suffer bullying at school. When Aiden showed interest in her, she thought she had found her knight in shining armor. A badass footballer on the field and a straight-A student off the field. Working over the years, Aiden created his image so people can't get the slightest idea of his dark life. Though they could support each other, their luck had the knack for messing things up. Instead of finding true love, she was pulled toward a burning pyre. ["Sharing a few kisses doesn't mean we're bound to share our lives. Please, don't misunderstand me," he is slicing my heart with words. "But we had.." "Listen, Bismika. This might be the last time we are seeing each other. This might be the last time we see each other. The sooner you realize this, the better. Good luck with your life," he walks away leaving me staring at his back.] Why he had to leave? What will happen when these two meet in the future with their new identities and mysterious past? Let's unravel the mysteries of their lives together.
Chapter 1 Prologue
Bismika's life had been nothing but tragedy. She was just a lonely soul that no one cared about. Ignored by the family members and bullied at school, this was how her daily life went on.
She was trying her best to keep calm and not give up on life. God knows how many times she thought about ending this crappy life of hers. But death wasn't an option for someone who hadn't done anything in her life but cries. She wanted to prove that she wasn't a coward. She wanted to show everyone that she deserved more than just being treated like trash.
She hoped for good days. 'One day all these miseries will come to an end.'- she kept telling herself. But this light of hope all could do was brighten up the cruelty of her fate! Just how much one can suffer!! How much it takes to break someone entirely!

Aiden Miller's life was just like his look. Bold, sparkling, gorgeous! At least this is what it looks like. Girls practically drooled over this babe magnet. Boys also admired this talented gem. He was the ultimate eye candy for all and he knew it very well.
But life wasn't that smooth in real terms. His inky tattoos weren't the only dark thing about him. Behind that gorgeous face, a sullied soul was lurking to engulf all of him. All the attention, love, and care from others didn't seem good enough to save him from being lost in the abyss of darkness.

What will happen when these two souls meet? Will they share the sufferings to be each other's support? Or will that crush them into dust?
Welcome to the rollercoaster of life.

~Some Words from Bismika~
Hi there. Welcome to my life. What? It's just a story? Ya, ya. It's a story for you. But UNFORTUNATELY, it happens to be my life. Why unfortunately? Cause there is nothing to be fortunate about.
I came to America at the age of 4 with my only family member, my father. Yes, I had no one else except my father.
And here comes the first tragedy of my life. My mum is out of the picture you see! Neither my mum got divorced, nor she had a natural death. She died in an attack by a notorious delinquent gang when we used to live in South Africa.
After my mum's death, the only thing my father could wish for was a secure life for his child. It's not like his wish has been fulfilled or something. However, he isn't there anymore to know that. The second tragedy, I believe. But this time, there weren't any more attacks. It was a car crash. The accident took my father's life along with Mr. Jonson's, for whom my father was working, only to leave me with the Johnsons to spend my remaining pathetic life.
Did you notice that I was confused if my father's death was the second tragedy or the third? Cause sometimes, I wonder if meeting the Johnsons was also a tragedy.
The Johnsons aren't cruel to me in direct terms. But they are cruel enough to ignore all the wrong things that happen to me. And biggest of all is ignoring my bully. Liam Miller. My ultimate fear. Who never misses any chance to make me realize how unfortunate I am to still be alive.
Talk about a BEAUTIFUL life!!! My inner me is screaming to get out of this hell hole called life.
So, I welcome you to join this small journey of mine. It's me, Bismika.
