I woke up the constant running on stairs, yeah, that’s the way how I woke up everyday. My sister , actually my step sister Donata, I don’t know what I have ever done to her, but she hates me, well she didn’t said it openly, but I guess actions speak louder than words.

I look up at the celing , without any thoughts. After doing my morning routine.. I reached to the kitchen, to prepare breakfast, today is my step sister birthday she is 16 today. So,she wants 16 present. Apart from that one each from everyone has to gift her a single gift so it' makes 19.

‘Quickly make the tea fast, then prepare the breakfast'– my mom tells me. I just nod my head. We all are having breakfast while me being seated in the last chair.well nobody wants me to sit with them but as they have to act perfect family in front of our locality . We were having breakfast while chatting. Actually everyones is chatting and I was sitting silently. My chains of thought broke hearing my step sis voice – ( Donata name in short is Dona)

Donata - is this really necessary to have her while we are having our family time ? Before mom could answer dad answer her- yes baby, we have already discuss about it no more argumnets. and end of discussions. Donate- mom can I please wear the new dress to school which you bought. Mom- yes sure honey! Anything you want. Dona- and mom I want some money to buy dress for the evening dad- sure sure , tell me how much you want and do you need help ? Dona- sure mom!!! I love you mom u r the best Mom - love u to honey now finish the breakfast fast we will go for shopping . then she sees me nd gave me a smirk .

LAST NIGHT_ I knock on the door of my parents after hearing come in, my dad was working on his laptop and my mom is doing her skin care routine . Tomasso- tell fast, what you want ? we don’t have the whole night! I took a deep breathe and forward the paper whivh I have bought with me. Mom- why u need money? Isabella- For reparing my guitar. Mom- we don’t have enough money right now, and tomorrow is your sister bday, we have already spent soo much money, now we cannot waste money , and what will you even do while reparing guitar you cant even speak . be grateful that we are still giving you a good education. Now why are you standing go to go to bed! I came back to my room more like the store room. I knew it would happen something like this. I just sat blankly and look outside the window, I wanted to cry but I don’t even rembeber when was the last time I cried. Now I have mastered in hiding my emotions preety well.

PRESENT DAY_ I was hurt but I mask my emotions and silently eat my breakfast and leave for school. She was my biological mother but she beheves like iam her step daughter .Donata always tells lies about me and she believes her blindly without even listening to my point. In my mom point of view iam the one who is always wrong. I reached my school , I passed through the hallway while hiding my face with the big specs and my hairs. I don’t have a bad eyesight, specs hides my face and to be more precise my eyes, they are green in colour like hazel green. I reached my locker, i took my books as soon as I can because once my step sis and her gang saw me, i will he dead meat. And 'BANG!!' My locker was shut close by a muscular hand , it was donate and her gang, speak of the Devil. They love to bully everyone and their favourite target is me. The one who close my locker is Justin , Dona’s boyfriend. In their gang there is Donata , Austin , timber, ash, Roise. He looked at me the smirk on his face and I saw donate smiling at him , not a normal smile btw a evil kind of smile. There presence suffocates me, I was about to leave but a hand grab my hair, and shoot I am on the floor, my books scattered on all over the place. And they started laughing....

(Well, you might be thinking why I didn’t fight back , well, there are two reasons 1. He have all the muscles and me… well moving to the second reason .. his dad was the school principal. So , no one dares to against them .)

Ahh.. poor Isabella…got hurt!! Any ways we are here to invite you to the party little sis... Don’t worry dear sis, today we wont do anything today because, today is my birthday and I am in a happy mood. so, today you have to came to my birthday party at my boyfriend place , and I don’t want to listen no, you have to come , or you know the consequences. (I was about to say no..but then dona speak again....) Aahaan..dont you dare to disobey me and if you disobey me, then you know what will happen, and no on will believe a pathetic ugly girl like you . I quickly pick up books and leave from there.

Donate pov :- I saw her walking away with a satisfied smirk on my face . I hate her, but I didn’t hate her from the starting, when for the first time my step mom came into our life, I don’t like her, but I was happy because I got a younger sister which I always wanted. But as the day pass I started to get jealous of her. Because where ever we both go everyone be like “- “ omg who is she, she is so preety and beautiful” “ and look at her eyes” and so on…. so, I started to manipulate everyone to and spread false rumors about her. The first one was her mother, her most important person. I snatch her mom by using some fake tears, fake bruises and ofcourse with my great acting skills, I thought she will be the toughest to get manupulated , but surprisingly she believe me, it made my work eaiser , then she has got two friends, which were just the work of my minions, we started to tell lies to everyone , whatever deed I did I put the blame on her and everone believes it. Now she is all alone and I will make sure she stays like that!! When my jealousy turned into hate for her I don’t even know that , but now there is no going back. I hate her to the core. And I will make sure , she will never be happy , and she will never get love. My chain of thoughts broke when my friends called me… Timber – why the hell you have called her to the party? Dona- well, in every party there needs an entertainment, she is that entertainment. We all laughed and left for our respective classes.

ISABELLA POV :- All the classes gone as usual , well there is nothing special in school or in home everyday it’s the same routine expect for my music , and paint classes. These two are something which I enjoy the most, both are the ways where I can express my feelings without being judged from others. I don’t want to go with dona in her birthday party, because I know very well why they are asking me to join the party, they just want to make fun of me and insults me, they loves to bully me. That will be there entertainment. But I cannot do anything if she will tell mom, if have to go, she will force me to go and I cant even make excuses of clothes, then I have to were dona's clothes which I don’t like, not judging her choice of clothes but I don’t like her clothing style I am quite happy with my clothes even they are too long for me… with all the thoughts I reached my home.

Stay safe and healthy. Lots of love🫶
