Transformed by sexual abuse and assault from the billionaire's model to a normal college girl. Read more about her struggles to raise her head high again and find her true love.
Melissa's POV. 🎶 Lord my heart is filled With the thought of You What You mean to me What you've done for me🎶
As this melodious harmony wafted into my ears, it relaxed my nerves like heavenly lullaby. I raised my duvet over my head to facilitate my slumber
"Don't tell me you're still in bed at this ungodly hour" I turned to look at my mom fully dressed with a service guide in her hands.
"I searched the entire church for you, not knowing you're still in bed. You slept back after I woke up.
"Chill mom, I'll soon be done"
"We're already done with the worship for your info, young lady. " (Melissa widens her eyes.)
"Jeez. " I hurriedly wore my dress, wore my wig, fixed my artificiaries, my contact lens, rim glasses and braces. I dyed my eyebrows quickly to brown. I was ready for church in less than thirty minutes. I drove mom's car to the church which was like three hundred meters away.
I entered quickly and sat in one of the back seats. I looked across to see some youths giggling at some pics on a phone.
I stared at my clothes, it was an unusually dull colored dress, so big like a maternity dress.
"Uhm, you got a pen"
"No"
"Hi, I'm Lucy tho"
"Ok" I haven't been listening to the preaching and he's almost done .
"MY COUNSEL TODAY IS OUT OF YOUR MESS CAN BECOME YOUR MESSAGE" He said as he ended the sermon. That was my message for today.

AT THE MET. 'The Met', I read the sign above loudly. I walked through the path to the entrance slowly to the front desk. The lady at the front desk who I guess is in her late forties, stared at me intently. I looked around to see if anyone would come take my luggage or welcome me.
Guessing she was the receptionist, who kept staring at me oddly, I walked to her and said "Hi, I'm Melissa Serrano ".
"Welcome to Los Angeles student housing, The Met. Your apartment is already selected. Its on the third floor.
"Why....... how". I felt irritated that I won't be allowed to select my room.
"Usually students individually choose their student housing first and go on tours..... and then finally pick their apartments. But yours was specially directed from the school management. Everything has already been done by Mrs Craig " .
The mention of her name made me more irritated.
"Lucky you" she added with a fake smile.
I hate fake smiles. I'm sure she's one of Maureen's puppets. "Where are my room keys".
"Your roommate's in, she'll hand you one of the spare keys. I rolled my eyes and walked away with my briefcase briefly.
"Its Room C12"she hollered behind me.
Author's POV " Hey handsome "
"Would you stop blushing and tell me, who's that girl? "The young cleaner who apparently stood at the front desk asked.
"C'mon Tony, I'm serious and which girl are you talking about. "
"The one who just left "
"Oh! You mean Melissa, she just arrived and she'll be staying on the third floor and.... "She stopped abruptly.
"Yh.... you're about saying something, just continue "
"Why you so interested? "
"I just wanna know" She gave him a weird look.
"Cmon" Tony begged.
"Then you have to agree to be my date at tonight's party. " she said with her head high.
"Seriously, Mrs Winston Theresa! "
"Haven't I warned you to stop calling me that. Call me Tessy. "
"Alright Tessy". Tony said sarcastically.
"Yaass! Mrs Craig called me earlier today about getting an apartment for a girl. She asked me to choose the most undesirable shared one in The Met so I chose the third floor for her. "
"That's the most desolate floor here. "
"And her roommate is Melaine"
"Whaaat" he said wide-eyed. "That girl who is never seen outside and even when she is, scurries around like a mouse". He said sadly and thought quietly for a while. "What did she do to Maureen ".
"Dunno. You know how Maureen can be. Now let's talk about tonight's party"
"I was just kidding. Tonight, I'll be busy with some work" He winked.
"But you promised"she said disappointedly.
"Did I". He said walking away giggling.
"Handsome brat! You'll surely come back to me. " she said pissed.
