Anderia was beautiful and confident girl, She had blonde hair that were long and had sharp features. She had almond eyes that made her more attractive.
"I am home" shouted Anderia as she came from her college and saw her mother, Maria infront of a fireplace reading book. Her mother was beautiful woman with sophisticated looks. Her mother smiled and asked how was her day and they began to chitchat for sometime.
Anderia went upstairs to her room to get fresh. Once she came out of the bathroom her phone started ringing it was none other than her best friend and classmate Christina. They began talking kept and lost track of time. After sometime Maria shouted and asked her to come for dinner.
The table was set and saw her dad Henry sitting quietly and watching Tv. She said "Hi dad!when did you come from office?". His dad said about an hour ago and they began chitchatting. Later they all began eating.
Her father was the bread winner and all the three were quiet content with what they had. They had a small beautiful house in the city. They had everything that Anderia ever dreamt of.She didnot wish for more.
She always thought that her life was perfect. She had loving parents but sometimes she used to see her mom sad and wondered what was bothering her. She tried many times to ask her mother but her mother always shrugged and told her that she is just over thinking. Anderia felt that she was 17 and not blind to not look the sadness on her mother's face.
Later that night she helped her mother do the dishes and then came to her room. Saw messages on her phone from Christina and they talked for sometime before sleeping.
While sleeping she would often think of her mother and was eager to know the reason behind Maria's sadness.Slowly she nodded off.
Next morning, she was awake by the alarm and rushed to the college in hurry. Saw Christina taking the books from the locker. Christina was tall, confident girl with bright smile. She asked Anderia " Worried about Maria, aren't you?".Anderia sighed and nodded.She patted Anderia and said "Don't worry too much maybe she is fine, and might misses her parent's who are no longer alive. Anderia nodded quietly and they headed to their class.
The class was boring as usual, Mrs White was explaining the formula's to which the student's hardly paid attention to, they were all day dreaming including Anderia and Christina.
All of a sudden Anderia receives a text message from an unknown number. The text said "Eager to know the family secrets?", Anderia saw that text and ignored it, thought it was from a wrong number and did not pay any heed. After few minutes she received a second message stating "Look for your mother's secret outside the city behind the alley at 5pm sharp today."
Anderia was stunned and worry crept her face, Christina noticed the change in her behaviour and asked if she was ok but Anderia showed her the messages that she received and Christina also got worried, they both waited for the class to get over.
