Making Him Fall In Love

1 : Am I in heaven?

"Beep beep beep...." The cardiac monitor alarmed as Serena Chen's heartrate turned zero signaling her death. She died with a smile on her slightly wrinkled but elegant face, her hand being held by her daughter, while sobbing suddenly filled the room. 

Serena died at the age of seventy-two. She lived a decent and happy life. Since birth, her life has been quite easy. She was born with a silver spoon, her loving parents owned a real estate properties where they received more than enough income from rentals. When she became an adult and graduates from college, she met the love of her life who then became her boyfriend, at the same time, she went to graduate school and got some decent jobs which she could always afford to lose. 

After a few years, her boyfriend became her husband, kind and hardworking. while she on the other hand was a little lazy, hating her 9 to 5 office job, she simply decided to resign and work for her parents to collect rent. When her daughter was born, she had her family help her in raising her up, when her daughter got married she was given two sweet grandchildren. 

To summarize it, when she was born she had her parents, when her parents were gone, she had her husband and her inheritance, when her husband was gone, she still have her child. 

All her life, she always had someone to support her, making her life pretty easy, devoid of too much responsibility. So when the time came, she had no regrets in life albeit she had some fantasies. 

Since her husband's death, her favorite past time was reading romance novels and watching dramas from time to time. Before her death, the last novel she read was "A Cinderella Story in Victorian Fantasy Era". 

Given that she only liked reading rebirth and transmigration stories as of late, the only reason she finished reading said novel was because her granddaughter wrote it. Her granddaughter, Rianne was addicted to shoujo mangas like "Boys over flowers", "Ouran High School Host Club", etc. which became the inspiration of her novel. So its not surprising that the novel was about the daughter of an impoverished noble house and ostracized in society reached the pinnacle of life.

"Ugh..." Serena woke up with a start. She know that she just died in the hospital, but now she was seeing an intricately carved ceiling.  Perhaps she just ascended to heaven? But then again why was she so thirsty?

She rose to sit on the bed and was surprised to see her pale and smooth hands. Before she could familiarize herself to the situation, a sound of knocking was heard, so she turned her head to her left. She then saw a young girl in a maid's outfit entering a wooden door.

"Good morning m'lady, pardon the intrusion but the Duchess asked me to see if you're already prepared for school. "

Serena was confused, but then proceeded to stand from the bed. She turned to look around the room and saw a vanity table. She went to sit on the chair in front of the table to look at herself in the mirror. What she saw almost made her jaw drop. A young lady who looks about the age of 18 was staring at her, hair golden like the sun, deepest eyes having the color of the sea, nose thin with high bridge, lips slightly pouty with a tinge of pink, and her skin, rosy white. Did she just hit jackpot for bringing out a large water tank when god decided to shower the world with beauty? If she had this beauty when she was alive, certainly, beauties like Audrey Hepburn and company will be put to shame. She had to stop herself from giggling like a maniac knowing a maid was just at the door.

Seeing that her lady was just sitting in front of the vanity doing nothing, the maid asked

"m'lady, shall I help you in preparing?"

Serena looked at the maid and started thinking.

'okay, so, did I just transmigrate? I know this sounds crazy, but anyway, I'm already dead. Perhaps I'm just living in my own fantasy. I guess the best thing to do is just go with the flow and see how things will go. '
