Shadows of sadness and minutes of happiness- this is life.But my life is only filled with sadness and sorrow which had occupied so much space that there is not a single place for hapiness in my life.
Life has always given me a gift of hell and that's the reason why I call it 'Living Damnation'.....
My name is Veronica-Veronica Scott,the only daughter of the richest man of America-Lecoster Scott.A 19 year old rich or very rich spoilt who has that amount of money which can buy anything.But money cannot buy everything.My life lacks love-of family,friends;happiness etc.
Pfft.....don't bother cause you'll gain nothing.
I never got to know when I became an idol from the person I was before.I had faced different people and situations except few.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
My life revolves around the college.I was as usual sitting alone on the last corner bench,listening to the lecture of Prof.Drens.After the lecture,he said
"Students,the marks of the test are with me,so please pay attention to know your marks......
Jessica-73,B------
Veronica-98,A+"he looked at me but my attention was in with my textbook.
The whole class turned back to se me but still I was into my book.
"VERONICA........."as heard I stood thinking that he's going to scold me.
He came to me ,placed his hand on my shoulder and said-
"She is the real daughter of the Scott family....."as I heard ,my blood burned up.I threw my book and said-
"You dog just put your hands off me."by saying this I ran out of the class.
I had faced many problems in my childhood.About 18 yearas ago,my parent 'bought' me from an orphanage.Just because my mother was unable to conceive,they brought me home.They didn't needed the baby but just wanted the fame and popularity given by people on media.I just feel like I owe them.
Back to present,the last bell rang,I got up,wiped my tears and went in the class to take my bag.I took it as fast as I could and rushed into my Audi which my driver brings everyday.Honestly speaking,I don't know how to drive or ride a scooter.My parents never allowed me to do so.
The driver is my best uncle and the member of my special family-Uncle Richard.
"How was your day Miss Scott?"he asked pleasantly.
"I had always told you not to call me from my bloody surname."I said roughly.
"Ok.Sorry-Veronica....How was your day?"he repeated.
"The day was quite as usual,once again got the highest marks in Eco-98"I said commonly.
"Now that's like my sweet princess.You have just went on your fa....."I intrupted.
"Don't even take his name or anything and neither of that witch."angrily I spoke.
"But they are your parents"
"They aren't"
"Ok,leave it....we reached home"he informed.
"Bye.Meet you later"I waved my hand and got inside the house.
Everyday the same life cycle goes on my life.
After 2 years;the Graduation Day.
Eveyone was wearing the bachelor degrees outfit.
I got the letter that I was the Student Of The Year and due to my badluck, my maid told it to my parents.So they decided to come up with me in this event.
Actually,they were the cheifguest.They addressed a speech and then sat next to me.
After all the stuffs of giving the bachelor's certificate etc.,the head of the school came up on the stage.
"Now I would like our cheifguests to come up on the stage to give an honour to the Student Of The Year by giving him/her the award and certificate."he requested.
When they went on the stage,I could se the pride in their eyes.I never got to knew whether it was a positive sign or a negative one.
"And the Student Of The Year is......"
"Miss Veronica Scott.Give her a round of applause."my mom and dad seem to be very happy to give me the award.For this event they'd given me a big paper of speech but I just threw it and said---
"Hi....my name is Veronica Scott.Many of you or everyone of you don't know me.I'm a last bencher who has no friend from her childhood.It's a universal truth that no one can live without friends.When I felt that I'm unable to make friends,I started making books and other stuffs my best friends.And now I have many and some of them are my best buddies like my literature book,my cupboard,room.Exciting,no?!?How would you feel when you get trapped in house without your family and friends?Well...It dosen't matter to me anymore cause I had got used to it.So......Thank you, and may no one you gets a chance to live a life like mine."I faced the crowd and saw their shocked faces.I hadn't got any emotions for anyone, so I directly went into my car and said uncle Richard to drove me home.
"VERONICA!!!Veron.....stop...."mom yelled.
As I reached home,I got off the car and banged the main front door.The maids and servants didn't got shocked as this was one of my very common mood.But this time,I was having a different one.I went into my room,took out the bag from the store room and started packing my clothes.Suddenly,my maid came in.
"What are you doing madame??"she asked confused.
"The thing which I should have done years ago"I continued.
"But why?Where will you go?"she asked worried.
"Anywhere,where I could get lost-in the crowd."I got up and changed my dress into a plain black tee with a grey half hoodie jacket and jeans.I tied up the lace of my common black shoes.
"Don't go...!"
"What is left here for which I would stop?"
"Ok.I won't stop you but take some money with you."
"No need for any sort of money."
"Then how would you manage?"
"Living dosen't always cost money.By leaving this prison,at least I would find some people as my mates."I took up my bag and went to the door.
"Life has given me many chances but I never understood.This is my last chance,to live like a free bird,to let my parents know my importance in their life.
Just want to be Independent.........
