Bella POV;

The sun slowly peeks through the worn out curtains, casting a warm golden glow into my small bedroom. Nestled within the confines of my single bed, my eyelashes flutter beneath my sleeping eye mask. Suddenly the earth sharking voice of my alarm clock rang for the fifth time and this time my eyes flung open as realisation of being late for work again dawned on me.

I quickly got of my bed and wore my plushy slippers, clipping my loosened hair up. I rushed to the restroom and quickly did my morning routine and when it came to cleaning the teeth I realised that the toothpaste was finished. Letting out a frustrated sigh, I rinsed my mouth thrice and came out.

I will shop the grocery today...

Quickly I rummaged through my closet. Though there's not much in it except for two pairs of boot cut pants with four basic T shirts tops and one dress that I bought on sale from BANANA REPUBLIC and one and only pairs of joggers as my shoe collection. Never mind I am really very poor.

Still despite the fact that I am not financially stable, I am a girl, who truly loves all those cute girly girls outfits and makeup. I truly love fashion. But with this much variety and only lip gloss in the name of available make up I can't do much.

I love watching those amazing makeup tutorials reels. I even have saved few dollars to purchase some makeup products this month.

My eyes roamed at the time showing by my alarm clock and I felt terror.

Damn....! I am so dead!

Quickly ,I changed into my old black boot cut jeans and a black basic t shirt applying moisturiser and my lip gloss, I looked at myself in mirror.

You are so beautiful babe!

Praising myself to my heart's content,I rushed out of my room only to see my aunt June sleeping on the couch with the TV on.

She must have slept here last night.

My name is Bella and I live with my aunt June.
My aunt is really a sweet lady in her early 40's. She works as a nanny at an Agency. She has been my guardian since the death of my parents, when I was 14.

I am 20 and I never got the opportunity to go to high school. My aunt with double shift managed to send me to the school before high school. She couldn't afford the fees of high school and hence I left studies after that to not burden her more. It's been few years since I have been doing different jobs.

I worked as a part time librarian at central library and part time waitress at the bakery.

My parents were very poor but they were good parents. My father worked as a mechanic and my mom as a waitress. I'm an only child. They loved and cherished me to no end. They died in a robbery case leaving me alone in this cruel world.....

I really miss them. There had been many nights, I cried for them to be here with me but life has been cruel.

My eyes stung as memories flash backed in my mind but I quickly jerked my mind away.

After them my only aunt, my mother's sister, June, who's not married took me in her wings and I love her to no end and same for her. She loved me like her own child....
