PART TIME LOVER

Part Time SKETCHY

Walking through her the driveway Cordelia takes in the enormity of the estate. It's too big for grandma to live alone.

Her grandma has always been a free-spirited soul, travelling the world, independent in every way with unrestrained relationships trailing behind her in every country she visited.

that was till she met her soul mate, Adrian Oberlin. Duke of some province, but Lia's dearest grandpa. it was he who named Cordelia after his sister. Lia loved visiting her grandparents, listening to their stories.

As a little girl, their adventures used to be a strange sanctuary for Lia. Away from the truths of life and lies of joy.

She knows the love she received from her grandparents was genuine and they used to be her escape from all the hassles of her. They were like an unlimited supply of joy.

That was till Grandpa Adrian's death. It broke Lia in ways the many psychologists, appointed by her mother, couldn't repair her.

Lia's Grandma not only lost her soul mate, but her soul as well. She wasn't spirited and lively as she was before, and calling the cause of Lia's alleged depression, her parents restricted her from visiting her grandma.

It had been about 5 years of no contact between Lia and Grandpa. Expect the obligatory Holiday cards and gifts, there no real interaction between.

Thinking her grandma was still in the deep end, Lia was anxious to meet her before moving here. But she was in for a surprise, because the fierce her grandma was had picked her life back up and was buzzing as ever.

Everyone in this new town thought the reason the Oberlin's had moved here was because of the old lady's poor health. But she was lively as ever.

It was all a facade.

The Oberlin's are perfect. We are powerful. We are not unbroken. We are sophisticated. We most defiantly do not crush.

It is all a facade. We are anything but.

Michelle Rockefeller Oberlin, head fashion designer for Très à La Mode. The biggest fashion company in the world. She had the industry in the palm of her hands. Some would call her powerful, but that stopped when she stepped home. The flawless designer was a flawed mother. a mother who always chose herself and her career over her kids.

Barrett Oberlin, the CEO of Oberlin Corp. a telecommunications and IT giant. The emperor of the massive empire was expected to be strong, body and mind. He was anything but. His titles would be a Tycoon, and a defeated husband and father.

Cordelia Oberlin, the youngest daughter of two behemoth personalities. People expected her to be the leader her parents her, a strong personality born to be the protagonist of any story she is in. a dressy diva and a crafty charisma. She was anything but.

Anastasia Oberlin, the first and the better child too. she was everything people expected her to be. Everything one would predict the child of Michelle and Barrett Oberlin to be. And beyond a doubt she was. Till the last month of her senior year. The beloved Anastasia did something nobody anticipated. The self assured, decisive daughter shocked her parents beyond the limit, which forced them to move away from the town.

As much as Cordelia hated her sister, she would always keep her secret. Even though it pained her to.

Walking always cleared Lia's head, so she decided to take a round of her lane before making her way to William's house. It was the same as her new home. 

After brushing her hair with her fingers, to settle them down. She rung the bell.
