Claire's Secret

Claire Cruz had her plate full at a very young age. Her parents got divorced right after she turned 2. She has lived with her mother who worked dead-tired every day to support her needs since then. Her father, who is the most influential personality in the airline business, started giving financial supports to Claire when Claire's mother died of ESRD 3 years ago. Though, Claire earns her living as a part-time writer and a waitress at night in the bars, the money is just enough to pay her house and her foods. She is a third year high school student in a prestigious university. The university system has a separate program for the elite and scholar students. Elite students are the sons and daughters of the renowned businessmen around the country, they have special curriculum and of course, special treatment. Claire is scholar of the university. Though, with the influence and power of her dad, she should be under the elite program. But given the circumstances, she chose to gain entry to the university through her personal efforts and not because she bear the Cruz name.
