CHAPTER 1 - Onika Tanja Maraj

My name is Onika Tanja Maraj. I am sure you've heard of me already. Most of my friends call me Nicki, and though an international superstar, I had one huge flaw. I was in love with my best friend, Beyoncé. I loved her more than anything else in the world, but I could never tell her that. We were at the mall, shopping for her upcoming birthday party that day.

"Nokia flop."

It was my arch nemesis, Ariana Grande. She was the biggest bully in school, and yet everyone still liked her. She had a rough past, but I didn't let her bully me because of it.

"Watch your mouth, you tiny midget." Bey defended me before I even could.

"Ah, her puppy is speaking for her once again. Too scared to face me, huh, Nokia?"

"Why do you hate me so much?" I asked her, but I already knew the answer.

"How could I not after all you've done to me?"

Bey took me by my hand, surprisingly, and rushed away to the water fountain in the mall.

"Are you okay Onika?" She asked. She always used my real name, ever since we met.

"Yeah. Of course." I lied. What I did to Ariana still plagued me.

"I hope you don't mind me asking, sweetie,", she came closer to me, brushing off a hair on my face. I was starstuck. "But what was she talking about earlier? What happened between you two?"

I faced away from Bey, scared to tell her the truth. "I don't have to tell you."

"Yeah. You're right. I shouldn't have asked."

There was an awkward silence. I hated those. Suddenly, we heard a sound I dreaded hearing even in my nightmares.

"Okurr!"

A figure popped up, resembling a rat, and pushed me into the water. The last I saw was Bey heroically fighting it off. I thought I would die when I saw the bright light flashing before my eyes, the last I saw being Bey's beautiful, dark brown hair. Yes, she truly was the person I loved the most.

No matter how much Ariana still meant to me.
