"So here you are...Ashley,weren't you taught how to read time at your college?How many times do I have to repeat about your role at this house?You MUST remember that you are supposed to be at home by 6.00 p.m. unless there's a function here.You already know that the servant leaves by that time if there aren't any special events taking place and you have to be here by that time to takeover whatever the tasks that she has failed to complete...Now go to your room and change your clothes soon,we can't afford to buy you another pair of school uniforms which are almost worthless for a brat like you.Since Mary has already finished work at the kitchens,you can get the bucket and start washing the floor.Make sure to dry it off by wiping before your father arrives home.Start working now,I don't care how long it'll take but finish cleaning the downstairs before going to bed."

The usual regular scolding from Mrs.Kim came flowing to her as soon as she entered the place which she disguised in her life the most,the place where she had to live,midst of all which burdened her,house.

Ashley ran off to her room and broke down onto her legs while tears came flowing down her cheeks.This room which was painted in dark blue colour never saw a ray of sunlight since the day Ashley was forbidden from opening the window.It was almost similar to her life,which was filled with darkness,overloading with troubles and troubles continuosly,with a single hope of light which led to the happiness in her life.It was only filled with sorrows,since the day she realised who she really was.

Ashley had almost informed earlier that she'll be having extra school hours today,but she knew there wasn't any good at talking back at her.Even if she did,all she could get were some more tasks assigned,leaving her with no time to sleep for the day.She was almost done with this life of hers',but she was left with no choice.There were times she wanted to kill herself,but then,just few years ago,when she was left all alone in this world,on that day which she could never forget from her life lane ,she found a purpose to live,she found the reason why she had to bare this all.

Though she was born to this very high family which others considered as being lucky,there wasn't even a single day she felt that way.Her life was all miserable to start with.By the end of days,her hazel coloured downcast eyes were filled with tiredness and when the few strands of hair which were left from the messy bun fall onto her pale-looking face,it showed how much she had to go through.Despite of all the troubles her known-to-be mother burdened her with,her life showed the complete opposite of what she spent,into the society.Her family always cared about maintaining others impressions on Ashley since they were one of the most wealthiest,attentive families in the country.However,what Ashley enjoyed the most was going to school,but her reasons were different.One could say that she loved going there to meet and spend time with her friends,but what Ashley preferred was being able to spend some time away from those freaking fellows at her home,namely family which consisted with her parents and herself.

This was her daily routine,going to college and giving out the expression of being treated well by her most loving parents one could ever have(according to what she was asked to express) and returning to home by 6.00 to start her part time servant role.The only positive side of being born to this family was,she had many opportunities to attend to royal parties,gatherings and wear luxurious clothes whenever her presence at such places were required.She had many so-called  friends,due to what her family holds,by being one of the most well-known,influencial families.But no-one ever knew the secret behind Ashley,the secret this family held except Mr. and Mrs.Kim and Ashley herself,because Kim couple were cautious enough to take all the necessary measures to stop it spreading among outsiders which could make things get worse.
