In the mid-afternoon:
In the exquisite boat of the Lannister family.
Aiden Lannister grunted after his mother, Linda Lannister told him about the arrival of his betrothed wife, Claire Newman.
Aiden didn't want to see her, he hated her sight from the first day and her missing front tooth.
The Lannister family was known to deal with the rich alone. They believed the poor would bring them down. They used marriages to expand their wealth.
The Newman was one of the richest families in City B. It didn't take long before Dave Lannister and Linda Lannister betrothed their handsome son, Aiden to Newman's only daughter, Claire.
Unfortunately, Aiden hated Claire, he didn't fancy the idea of getting married in the future. Although, he was only 13 years old.
Nevertheless, Claire who was Ten years old wouldn't stop bugging him. She was too innocent to notice how much Aiden despised her.
In the private boat of the Lannister family, the Newman appeared with Claire. They were on a summer vacation.
Claire walked into Aiden's room. A lollipop was in her hand. She looked chubby and cute in the short floral gown she wore.
Aiden felt her presence, he stood in the room. Abruptly, he turned to Claire. He glared at her with disdain. If he was ever going to fall in love, it was never going to be a fat, chubby, and ugly Claire.
”What do you want?” He rolled his eyes, his slender hand slid into his pocket and lined his red lips.
Claire looked at him innocently, ”I just want to play” She answered truthfully with a smile.
Aiden shook his head, he looked at her with disdain.
”First off, you're too ugly to be my playmate. Secondly, you're too dirty with that sweet stains all over your shirt and face. Lastly, I hate you!” He yelled the last sentence which stuck to Claire's head. The words kept enacting in her head and she felt sad.
With a turn, she walked out of his room. Both families were engrossed with chatting and gisting that they didn't know when Claire moved to the edge of the moving boat.
She stared at the water with tears in her eyes. In anger, she threw the lollipop into the water. She bent down and buried her head into her thigh.
Suddenly, the boat made an ahead turn which caused a little tumble in the boat. Claire couldn't control herself, she slipped into the water. However, Claire couldn't swim, she raised her head and wave her hand above the water. Regardless, no one noticed her. She slowly drowned in the water.
Isabel Newman suddenly noticed the absence of her daughter, she called for her repeatedly but no reply came.
”Linda, I can't find my daughter, where is my daughter?!” She yelled frantically. Her heartbeat is faster than normal.
Linda didn't find any words to say. They were in the middle of an ocean, where could she have gone to?
”Is it possible? My daughter fell into the water?” Isabel cried, she didn't want to believe herself. Her only daughter couldn't have gone missing.
Gideon Newman spoke on phone, he ignored his wife. Anyone would think he didn't care. However, he was more scared than his wife.
”Please calm down” Linda comforted.
At that point, Aiden numbed heart began to beat faster. He was the last person to talk to Claire before the incident. He stood at the corner while both families panicked.
In the outskirt of City B:
The Hart
a family which consisted of John Hart, his wife Miranda Hart, and their only daughter, Vivian
was on their normal vacation.
The boat of the Hart family stopped at the shore. John Hart held his wife while she held unto their daughter, they stepped out of the boat.
Suddenly, A sparkle caught the eyes of Vivian. Her eyes turned in the direction. At the shore, they were huge rocks.
Vivian left her mother's hand and followed the glimmering light that shone from one of the rocks.
The shock was on her face when she saw a little girl her age — Ten years old, laying on the rock unconsciously.
The pendant around Claire Newman's neck glimmered against Vivian's greedy eyes. She removed the pendant hastily before her parents appeared behind her.
Just then, her parents poked their heads behind her. They were both shocked to see the little girl as well.
Scared, they took their daughter's hand and planned to run away but John's face twitched when he saw the little girl cough out water.
Miranda's face twitched in fear when she saw the little girl regain consciousness.
"Husband, let us go before we get into trouble. The little girl is waking up ” Miranda cautioned and held her husband.
However, John didn't want to go without the little girl. He watched as she opened her eyes slowly, her eyes were vibrant as her cute face.
Although little, Vivian stared at her with disgust. To her, the latter looked ugly and chubby.
Claire Newman seemed to have lost her memory, she thought the Hart family were her relatives so she stretched her hand to them and uttered slowly.
”Mom, Dad..... take me home with you” Her vibrant eyes sparkled under the sun.
”Mom, the Dad, let's go. I don't like this little girl” Vivian uttered with her little voice.
Miranda scoffed, she looked at John with hatred for the little girl, she hurried him to let them leave.
" I think she is a crazy little girl” Miranda voiced, her contemptuous eyes on the little girl.
John ignored his wife and daughter, he carried the girl in his hand and she gave out a beautiful smile that melted his heart.
”I think she lost her family, I'll take her to the police station first and I'll come back to you. Stay here with Vivian ” John uttered, he touched his wife's shirt and permed hair sweetly before leaving.
Shortly after, John walked back to his wife with the little girl in his hand. He didn't look sad neither did he look satisfied.
Miranda stood up quickly, dissatisfaction was clear in her eyes, she carried Vivian in her hand and muttered "Why did you bring that child back?!”
John sighed and looked at his wife. However, Claire played with John's hair, she laughed and was super excited.
”She didn't stay with the policemen, she cried, and then the policemen concluded that I'm her father and I wanted to deny her ” He let out.
" So? what does that mean? I'm not going to raise any child that I don't know anything about!!!” She yelled.
”I'll name her Skylar Hart because her eyes are just as bright as the sky ” John Heart voiced, he ignored the vicious act of his wife and touched the little girl's hair.
Twelve Years Later:
It was Skylar's 22nd birthday, she twirled around her small room insincere happiness. She looked at herself in the mirror, she was wearing a short blue gown and a converse shoe.
Skylar Hart looked prettier than before, she outgrew her fat. Her face looked slender and fair. Her blue eyes became brighter above a long nose which led to her rosy lips.
Vivian, her sister prepared her 22nd birthday party in a grand hotel to which she would be going.
”Dressed like that?” Vivian leaned against her door post with her hand across her chest. Vivian had grown to be very beautiful as well, compared to Skylar, she was more attractive.
”Why?” Skylar Hart didn't seem to find anything wrong with her dress.
”You look 18 like a freaking church nun" Vivan had gotten to her wardrobe, she ransacked it and found a revealing black dress.
”Wear that” She threw it at Skylar.
Skylar looked at the dress with disdain, it's a black-lined short dress with a tiny strap, it looked revealing.
With a dangerous stare from Vivian, she scrambled into the bathroom and got dressed.
As she did, she thought about her boyfriend, Fernando Alonso. He was going bankrupt and his finances were dropping.
He had told her before: ”Skylar, I won't be able to afford the fancy wedding or the gracious honeymoon we planned, I might be a poor man soon”
Skylar felt the sadness in his words, she never cared about a fancy wedding, all she wanted was Fernando to be her husband.
She looked at herself in the mirror, the dress hugged her body so well. Skylar might not be 100% beautiful but she is 100% endowed with a perfect figure. Her boobs are moderate and full, her hips are well outlined and gorgeous. Adding to her excess figure is her tiny waist, which could make a man beg for attention.
Skylar would never wear slim-fitted dresses because of her figure, Miranda would never allow it. She would say; ”Why are you so selfish Skylar, you already have a rich boyfriend. You don't want your sister to have one as well?”
Sincerely, Skylar had thought Miranda wasn't her biological mother every time. Because she treats Vivian a lot more better than her.
It was a little weird to Skylar that Vivian would allow her to dress in that manner. However, she shrugged off and walked out.
Vivian smiled after she saw Skylar's appearance, she would be perfect for her plan.
