My name is Bella Kingston..... actually it's Bella Hall but my mom says the name Hall is a shame to her,so she changed my name to Kingston because it sounds "formal and high class". My mom "Lacy Kingston" is the CEO and founder of the Kingston industries which is one of the most successful companies in New York
She's basically trained me since I was 6 to take over the company
I'm like a puppet to her and since she's a workaholic I bearly see her everyday....
Our family is a really big deal in town since we are part of the richest and all my mom cares about is how to look good in public.
I never get a time alone, I'm always surrounded by guards and maids.
My mom is a perfectionist and thinks everything should be done her way so she never really showed me any motherly love. I spend almost everyday of my life being taught on how to suit the title of being the next Kingston owner. I'm 18 years old, I have a Honey like complexion, Brown eyes, curly brown hair and I wouldn't deny the fact that I'm really beautiful...I'm a black American and I've been living in New York for a while now. I've never actually had a boyfriend, not that boys don't ask me out but I'm not really into relationship shit.....even if I wanted to(which I clearly don't) my mom will surely be against it, she says it's just a distraction and I should focus more on my book and getting to my dream college~Havard(Well more like her dream college).
Boys follow me like flies everywhere, I can't even count how many guys that asked me out just this week but I'm already used to it. I'm practically the most popular in the school due to my name in the town but I bearly even talk to anyone, I have a few people my mom makes me group with because their parents and mine are business partners.
I am the only child so my mum practically decides every step of my life, and my dad....I can't even remember what he looks like because he left my mum when I was two, we've never heard from him since then.
Today is kind of a big deal for my mum because it's my first day in college. I won't deny I am really excited but I am trying my best to hide it from my mom so she won't be satisfied because she practically forced me to come here ,yeah I didn't really want to go to university...my dream was to become an actress but my mom thinks that's a bad idea and it will deny the image of my family.
I'm so happy because I can finally get the freedom I've been looking for for the past 18 years ,I will be staying in the school's hostel so at least she will be miles away from me. Thinking about it alone made me almost scream in excitement
"What are you so excited about, I thought you said you won't like it here" my mom said with a smirk
I mentally face palmed myself for not being able to hide my happiness
"I'm just happy I get to be away from your bossy attitude" I mummured to myself
"What did you say?" She asked glaring at me
"I said you can go home now...I can carry my things in myself" I said shrugging
"Well not that I wanted to help you .....Anyways I'll be leaving now remember what I told you, focus on your book not boys and make sure you come back home with A's unless you won't like what I'll do to you and I don't like the idea of you staying in the hostel when we can practically buy the school i don't want anybody to think of me lowly so you'll be moving to house I bought close to the school anytime soon " she said turning around to leave not even sparing me a glance
I bit my lower lip to contain my anger... that's all she cares about? My grades...what people think about?she didn't even wish me good luck, How pathetic can she be?....I quickly brushed all those thoughts away and turned to face the huge building
"At least I'm free from that psyco.... Well college here I come"
