Adel POV

I was home schooled all my life because my mom was a famous model while my dad was a filthy rich businessman.

I had so many people to care for me, paid nannys and servants that is. No one actually cared because they worked only for the money. There were very few times when both my mom and my dad were together with me. As far as I remember, I spent most of my life with my dad in that huge mansion.

I remember my favorite nanny telling me that I used to be a quiet good girl never bothering anyone but from what I can recollect, I just grew to get used to the loneliness. And suddenly one day my mom came home after 4 months. It was common that she was gone away for months for her promotions and all. In her hand she carried few papers, I was only 10 then, unexposed to not only the world but also to my own family.

I remember running to her when I shoved away to my dad. They fought and fought for so long, that at one point in their argument, I felt I wasn't there, as though I meant nothing.

Few days later after that argument, my dad came to my room. I was surprised at his visit. Although we lived under the same roof, it was rare that he bothered to check on me.

When he entered the room, I greeted him with a warm smile.

"Adel dear, you will be getting a new mom tomorrow."

Wait I had a mom? Was the first thought that popped in my head.

"Okay so?" I asked in return.

"You must learn to accept your new mom as much as you can."

I nodded at him and focused back on my homework. I felt tears blind my eyes when he left. So its very easy to replace a mom right? I wanted to run to him and tell him that I want my mom be back but I did not dare to, not that I was scared but that I felt I had no rights in their life.

And that is exactly what I felt when my 'new' mom came to my house. I hated her smile. It was so fake. I started to hate everything related to my dad to my mom, my step mom and my little brother. Yes, I have a brother,a step-brother to be precise.But I would never accept them as my family.
I would never introduce them as a family. Why would I? I never belonged there. They were nobodies to me.

My dad, my step mother and my step brother made a happy family ,a family without me. A family where I did not exist.

But that changed on the first day of my university, my first day out. My first day with him. Kongpob.

I  was snapped back to the present when Kongpob shook me hard.

"Hello earth to Adel. Are you there? What are you day dreaming about? I ordered your usual, is that fine?" Kong asked.

I nodded sheepishly at him still in trance.

I looked at Arthit who half looked and half glared at us, no, me. I smiled at him and said,"I am sorry I can get weird sometimes. Anyways P'Arthit, It's nice to meet a celebrity."

Kongpob whispered "Call him Oon, we can't have him get into trouble, because of us."

"Of course not P'Oon, I am not surprised that, he has a celebrity friend, he is a rich dude himself."

I saw Kong look at me pointedly as though telling me not not to spill weird things out to his idol.

I chuckled and said, "You said he is your friend, why are you so secretive?"

"So P'Oon I was telling you what? Oh.. Yeah! He is the only son of  the chairman of Siam corporate Industries. The youngest. He has two twin sisters, both of them are married. I have met them a few times, they can very handful sometimes and are very funny most of the time. We get along just right. About Kongpob, I met him 6 months ago on the first day of university, he seems quiet and nice to you at first but he can act all hero, protecting his friends from the hazers and taking all the punishments instead. I am pretty sure he is being quiet because he is goner when it comes to yo-"
