Silver with the help of crutches stood up with a great difficulty as she made her way to the window of her room.
Her room was relatively small, just enough space to accommodate a seven inches three by six mattress, leaving a little space to keep a small table that has three quarter of it occupied with a folded clothes while a small table lamp was placed on the remaining one quarter. The remaining was almost taken by the wheelchair at corner of the room.
The room was initially a store but was converted into a room by her stepmom for her after the death of her father.
It would not have been possible if only her father hadn't willed the sixty percent of her property to her stepbrother leavings the rest to the care of her stepmom since she's legally wedded to her dad
There is many rooms left unused but they won't be given to her reason being that it was reserve for visitors who wants to sleep over and when she complained about the current one she is using, she was told to manage it, after all she will soon be married off to God knows where, so she should be using it in the meantime.
She stood there deep in thoughts with beautiful blonde hair that touches her waist, with an oval face, sculpted to perfection, a pair of eyes full sadness , what a luscious lips,who will be the lucky guy to get a kiss from it.
She wore an ordinary dress that hang loosely on her body making it obvious that she was not the one that chose the dress for her self . That's do not come as a surprise though, expected from a neglected some body, who cares about about what she wore? No body cares. Just go and grab a few cheaper clothes for her and all is settled, that's how they treated her.
Though the clothes were loose on her, it still couldn't hide the perfect body she has. A body capable of invoking the jealousy of heaven.
She would have been the most beautiful girl in the entire Wolf City if not for a certain incident that left an incurable scar on her. Who would have thought that a day that was supposed to be the happiest day of her life will turn out to be the darkest day of her life.
As she was returning home after celebrating her sixteenth birthday with her friends on that faithful day.
They were cornered by four grown men, who only not rob them but also raping her on the process and the funny thing was that her two friends were left unscathed apart from their missing purse nothing else.
Four grown up men having a go on her, there's no way she will survive that. One might wonder where was the police, well police came but by the time they arrived the deed had already been done, those culprits have already been gone. What was left on the scene was an unconscious girl who was bleeding on her lower region and two other girls lay on the ground with a frightened expression, it will be a miracle if they come back to normal soon after such an awful experience.
They were rushed to the hospital for check up to know if they suffered any unknown damage and when the results were revealed.
The two girls will recover with the help of a therapist within one month since they were only traumatized by what they saw. As for silver, her own was different story entirely.
She was told that she won't be able to use her legs again because her pelvis and lumber vertebrae were fractured due to how rough they were on her, it didn't stop there as she was also advised to abstain from anything that has to do with penetration that her vaginal wall too destroyed that for pee without feeling pain will be a relieve.
After the incident her life was not the same, she was reduced from the dream girl of many to a forgotten princess. The look of admiration she once received turns into pity and disgust in some cases.
As she watches the blossomed flowers in the garden as they were being sway to and fro by the morning breeze, she could help but smile bitterly at the twist of fate, she had once been like those flowers, unparalleled beauty but look at her now. Her body that had once been her pride has now become a shame.
Police runs investigation for two months without showing any result and it remains like that till her father who had always been the pillar of her life died also due to accident eight months ago leaving her with a woman who supposed to take care of her as her own daughter, a woman who makes sure that none of her dad's property was left except the house they're leaving in.
It only took her stepmom eight months to sell off all of father's property including the little family company her father managing when he was alive, two plots of land her father bought for expansion of business was also sold, two out of their three family cars was sold all because she was the one in charge.
Her stepbrother is not any wiser, as he sold his own too and uses the money he gets on gambling and women, while his mom spend s her own on expensive dress.
Watching how they lavish her father's hard earned wealth she could help suspect that they had hands in what happened to her dad.
What did I do to deserve this " asked her self
" Who knows maybe you are a super villain in your previous life and the karma of the sins you have committed had decided to visit you in this life
What!... She was so shocked that she almost fall had it been that that she didn't grab on to the window hood to steady her self. She was so lost in thought that she didn't noticed when her brother entered the room.She managed to turn around only to see her step bro looking at her with a mocking smile on his face. This was the last person she wanted to deal with, since the death of their father everyone seems to have changed including her brother, the little brother who once doted on her now despise her as they were once a sworn enemy, what is the reason? No one has answer.
What are you doing here? She asked after steeling her anger that was stemmed from his previous remarks.
Why won't I be here? Big sis " he asked back with a voice laced with sarcasm.
"Because this is my room a lady's room for Christ sake you ought to knock before entering " she was practically panting as she gasps for air.
" A Lady's room as said but where is the so called lady, I can't see her all I see is my fellow man,a man calling himself a lady ha hahaha" he started laughing as if he just heard the funniest joke of his life.
"Damian Mansmoore! she almost screamed, " tell me why you are here " it was apparent that she was finding it difficult to control her self.
" And let me remind you this house you living in belongs to me, so as the owner of the house I free to enter any room I want, if you don't like it then pack and go okay no stress about that." He continues on to what he was saying not caring about her earlier out burst.
" Did you know that you are one the shameless person I have ever seen? She asked. " This is our fathers house that he willed it to you doesn't means that it entirely belongs to you" she said
" If I am the most shameless person you have ever seen then you are also the most shameless,disgusting and unappreciative creature that I ever seen since my entire life". Not holding back he fired back with venomous voice going for kill, striking the most vulnerable spot. " Why didn't he will ed it to you if you are capable, why didn't he do that. You should be grateful for the food and shelter we have given you through your worthless life, what is your value in this house, nothing , you are absolutely useless in this house you better pray that someone will be bored enough to take a burden like you as a wife because I won't be tolerating these nonsense anymore, with that he stormed out of the room.
Silver had since went pale like a drained corpse. The word of her brother keeps roaring on her mind like a thunder. Then comes the unmistakable truth she is a burden that her family is planning on getting rid of through any means. With that she fell unconscious as collapsed on her bed with no one caring about her condition.
