BEGINNING OF THE END
Anastasia Vale, the little princess of Vale Family, is a sweet innocent girl. From the early age, she is always dependent on her father, mother, and her eldest brother due to their continuous pampering.
And so, although she is pro at everything like singing, handling instruments, gaming, painting, studying except of course language and what not, like her family, she didn’t feel the need to show-off all this and let her childhood best friend take all the lime light without holding a grudge, not knowing how thankless person her best friend is whose appetite kept on increasing, seeing her talent, wealth and fame.
Under the influence of her best friend, she gave up studying, and started spending time with her newly boyfriend, doing things for him like giving him expensive gifts, taking him to high profile restaurants and parties, wearing ‘mature’ dresses and doing heavy makeup because according to her best friend, boys loves mature girls. Due to all this, she was seen as slut to the whole school, who is forcing the poor boy, who wants to study, in hanging out with her.
Not that she knows about all these rumors, courtesy to her best friend and her foolish self.
Later on, after failing college entrance exam, at the young age of 21, she got married to her long time boyfriend, holding a fairytale wedding. Not knowing about the venomous snakes hiding in the shadow.
And like that her nightmare began, starting from the wedding night to her dying moment, for 5 years she was locked in the cold dark basement, disconnected from the outside world. But that doesn’t mean her so-called husband and his b***h aka her best friend didn’t flaunt their success in front of her like the destruction VL Corporation, death of her family, especially the death of her eldest brother who came to rescue his sister, knowing something is wrong. That was the last day of her life when she came to know about the death of her superhero, her brother.

“How are you my dear best friend? I hope you’re doing well.” A lady wearing a red dress came in front of me, looking all beautiful and seductive only if one ignores the twisted look on her face and the disgust in her eyes like everyone is beneath her. She was none other than my best friend Elle, the sensational singer of the current timeline. If anybody didn’t see, nobody would believe how their gentle looking idol could have such hideous expression.
I kept mum like always not wanting to give her the satisfaction of getting any flick of emotions from me but it seems today she is in mood of speaking instead of throwing a tantrum at my avoidance to her.
“What? Not speaking? Tsk,” She said in a mocking grieve tone, making a fake pout. With fake excitement she continued, “But I’m sure hearing this news you’ll be happy after all it’s your contribution.”
“Your brother came,” ‘Not good! Not good!’ “to rescue his dear sister. Poor man,” ‘No… No…’ “took his last breath at our doorsteps with a bullet lodged in his skull.”
And like that all my hope shattered and suddenly all the anger I accumulated burst out and I lunged at her with a rod, which I didn’t let anybody discover till now, “You b***h! I considered you my best friend, my family considered you as their daughter and you did all this to them. I will kill you. I will kill you.”
But before I could reach her, her two bodyguards pushed me hard causing my fragile self to hit the wall. I am sure there’s going to be another nasty bruise in my body. But I can’t feel the pain. All I’m feeling is the anger, hatred and self loathing.
“What? You thought you can hurt me? How foolish you are!” Elle mocked me. One can see the satisfaction swirling in her eyes seeing me in this state.
“Hahaha, you thought you won,” I said, positioning the rod in my heart, “how foolish YOU are! Don’t come near me. Otherwise…” I added, seeing the bodyguards coming near me.
“Anastasia, don’t be stupid. Put it down.” Elle said trying to keep her composure but I can hear the hidden panic in her voice.
“I know why you guys want to keep me alive. Till now I co-operated, only to have you guys’ attention on me rather than my brother. But then also my only family is dead. Let’s see how you’ll answer that bastard when he realizes his plan of conquering VL Corporation fail. But it’s not the end. I will hunt you both down even if I have to sell my soul to the devil. I will get my revenge.” Saying so, I stabbed the rod in my heart, killing myself all the while wishing for a chance so that I can correct my mistakes, so that I can save my loved ones.
