Kim's Pov
The alarm rang loudly and I snooze it almost immediately.
Why does it have to wake me up now?
I'm still feeling sleepy.
I grumbled before walking to the bathroom to have my bath.
After taking my bath, I mop my body with my small white towel before walking to my big old bag to select the clothe I will wear to work.
A little introduction of myself .
My name is Kim Park, A Korean, I came from a family of five.
My mom, My granny from the paternal side, Jeremy, Sophia and Lina.
My Dad died ten years ago,we are in the middle class, neither rich nor poor and we are living okay.
I graduated from college last year but I was unable to find a job so I engage myself into some menial jobs to keep body and soul together.
I'm a girl who is attractive to men at an early age of life, I'm beautiful, heavily endowed with my cute and hair lashes which flutter at intervals including my long hair almost reaching my knees.
My heavily features always made me uncomfortable around men and thus made me an introvert.
Enough of the introduction.
I slip my feet into the sandals and pick my small bag before walking out of the room.
I walk to the dinning and they were there already (my family), I greeted them one after the other before settling down to eat.
During the course of eating, Jeremy spake up.
"Auntie I forgot to tell you yesterday night about the contributions we are to make in school "He said lowly and I press my lips.
"Really "I mumbled before grabbing a glass of water and sip in a reasonable amount.
"Yes, the party we usually organises between ourselves after the end of every year is around the corner so we are to contribute some money "He explained and I nodded.
"How much?? "I asked.
"5000 bucks" He mumbled lowly and my heart sank.
I'm not having much at hand.
"Uhm...... Jeremy, I will see what I can do about it before tomorrow night " I promise and he smiled.
"Okay hunnie " He beamed and I nodded.
I hope I will be able to keep my promise to him.
After eating, I pick my bag before rushing to my place of work.
Blue's Pov
The maids bowed in obeisance as I walk into the mansion.
I'm sleeping at mom place today with Alex.
She rushed to hug me immediately and I wrap my arms around her.
"I miss you so much "She cooed and I kiss her hair.
"I miss you too mum" I replied and she nodded.
"I prepared your favorite "She squealed and I roll my eyes.
I don't feel like eating anything.
"Mom..... "
"Not again Blue. " She cut me off waging her fingers at me.
"I need to attend to some online meetings right now, I will come downstairs to eat later" I rush my words and peck her before scurrying to my room upstairs.
11pm at night .
Alex walk into the room and I shot him a stare.
"Seriously, you are just coming back " I rasped and he sighed.
"Where did you went to? " I asked.
"Chillax dude, I went to the club "
Is this guy really serious?
I called him three hours ago because I want him to help me in attending to some online meetings and yes just coming by now telling me that he went to a club.
Can this guy ever change at all??
"I'm not like you" He huffed before pulling his legs put of the sneakers.
"I'm sleeping here tonight "He said.
"Like I care.... " I muttered under my breath and he chuckled.

Kim's Pov
The next day at work....
I scribbled my name including the time I get to work hastily in the attendance sheet before joining Sally at the counter, I came a little bit late today but thank God the MD isn't here yet.
He would have yelled down the walls complaining.
"You came a little bit late today " Sally said after we exchanged greetings.
"Yeah I woke up late, I'm so stressed out yesterday " I mumble and she sighed.
"Why won't you be tired, I wonder how you cope with three jobs together" She scoffed and I heaved a sigh.
"it's not my fault Sally, it's the situations of things that pushed me into all this" I mumble almost close to tears and she pull me into a hug.
"I understand but with time you will overcome this" She assured and I nodded.
"One glass of coffee please " A man yelled and I pull away from the hug rushing to the kitchen to carry out his order.

I flag down a cab heading to my second place of work.
The car screech to a halt in front of me.
"Where are you going ma'am "
"Nadine Mansion "
"Okay hop in" He said perfunctorily and I step into the car.
We got to the mansion and I settled him before walking to the gate.
I knocked twice on the gate before Evans opened it for me.
"Good afternoon Kim" Evans beamed and open it wider for me.
"How are you doing "
"I'm fine " He replied.
"Is Ma'am in? " I asked.
"Yeah she's in"
"Alright let me start going now before she yell down the walls " I joked and he burst into laughter.
"Alright "He said amidst laughter and I scurried off.
I strode into the living room and she's in the living room filing her nails.
She chew her gum in am annoying way and I almost roll my eyes at her manner.
She's wore a yellow short gown revealing her boob's and fair laps.
She pack her hair in a neat bun with tendrils framing her face.
I must say this, She's beautiful, only that she lack manners
"Good afternoon ma'am " I greeted and she stare at me in an irritating manner but I didn't let that get into me.
I'm not new to her attitudes.
The clothes you are to wash are where it's normally dropped, when you're done washing it, collect your money from Linda" She said in a bossy tone and I nodded before walking out of the room.

After washing the clothes, I collected my money from Linda and headed home.
I decided to trek so as to get some drugs for granny, she's been complaining of low back pain since three days ago.
I stopped at a pharmacy shop beside the road to get the drugs.
"Good evening ma'am " I greeted and she look up at me.
"Good evening dear what can I do for you? "She asked warmly.
I prescribed the drugs I want for her and she select the right one to be used and pack it in a nylon.
She handed it to me and I walk out of the shop but she stop me.
"Is there a problem ma'am? " I asked and she shook her head
"I want to tell you something " She said.
"What's it? " I asked furrowing my brows.
"You're so beautiful and well set" She said smiling and I almost chuckle at her childish manner.
Is that why she called me back??
"Thank you ma'am " I blush.
"Please take this apples as a gift from me" She hand me a nylon containing apples.
"Thank you so much "I muttered and she smile.
"You're welcome darling "
I thanked her once again and bade her goodbye before heading home.

I dip my teeth into a apple and cut a small bite from it.

Do I need money again with the ones I've acquired??.
"Check my schedules for this week maybe I will be chanced, if I'm not chanced, they should find another model " I conclude and continue eating my apples.
"Alright sir... I will do that right away " He bowed slightly before walking out of the room.

On my way home, my phone rang in my pocket.
I bring out the old phone which is malfunctioning already due to long usage.
I realized its mom calling.
"Hello mom" I said tiredly after picking it up.
"Oh my Baby what's wrong with you? " She asked worriedly and I sighed.
"I'm fine mom, just a little bit tired "
"Okay where are you right now? " She asked.
"I'm on my way home, is there a problem? "
"Not at all, I have been expecting you since "
"Alright I'll be home soon " I chuckled and end the call.
Mom and her childish attitudes
I opened the gate and Jeremy rushed to hug me.
"Welcome back sis " He beamed and I nodded weakly.
He took the bag from me and we walk inside together.
"Mom I'm home" I yelled immediately I got to the living room and she ran from the kitchen and hug me tightly.
"Welcome baby " She cooed and I smiled.
I pulled away from the hug after sometime .
"I want to freshen up in the room so as to join you guys in eating together " I said and she nodded.
I rush to the room to take my bath and when I'm done, I wore a short Jean and a light top.
I wore my rabbit slippers before walking out of the room to join them.
They are there already but haven't start eating.
Mom dish out our food and we start eating in earnest.
After eating ,Sophia and Lina packed the dishes to the kitchen while the rest of us retired to the living room.
When they are done cleaning the dishes, they joined us at the living room, my mind drifted to the drugs I bought for granny.
I decided to give it to her before she starts feeling sleepy.
"Jeremy get me the bag " I ordered and he handed it to me.
I handed it to Granny and she gasped when she check what I bought for her.
"Thanks so much my joy" She beamed and I smiled.
I dip my hands into my pocket and bring out the money left.
"Jeremy have this for your contribution, Sophia have this for the dress you told me about two weeks ago, Mom give this to the woman we bought Rameyeon ingredients from her last week " I distributed the money to them and tears start dripping down their eyes.
"Thanks so much Kim" they chorused and I chuckled.
"Is that why you guys are crying? " I asked surprised.
"I'm working because of you guys "
"Thanks so much for your support " Granny beamed and I smiled.
"And you Jeremy, common you're a man" I joked and he chuckled.
We pull ourselves into a group hug.
Our family is the best.
Margaret Pov
I slip my feet into the silver high heels and pick my silver bag before walking out of the room.
I got downstairs and I met mom and dad eating there at the dinning.
"Good morning family " I greeted and peck each each of them before taking my seat to eat.
"Morning Margret how was your night? " Mom asked smiling.
"splendid as always " I beamed and the maids dish out my food into a silver ceramic plate.
Soon I start eating....
A little introduction of myself
My name is Margaret Lincoln, A Korean pop artiste and model, I don't belong to any group or band.
I'm on my own.
I came from the rich Lincoln family in Korea as their only child.
Although, I'm born with a silver spoon, I'm not spoilt, I'm humble, Meek but I don't like cheating and betrayals.
Enough of the introduction, I have a lot of things to attend to
When I'm done eating, I bade my parents goodbye before walking out of the mansion.
My manager took my bag from me when I got outside and rush to open the door as well.
I got in and her sits beside me while the driver zoom out of the compound.
"Where are we going this morning? " I asked .
"You've a meeting with Stanley corporations"
"You mean the company who wants me to be their model for the new product they just launched? " I asked.
"Yes ma'am "
"Am I the only one who will be modelling for them? " I asked again.
"No ma'am you will be Blue Lee partner in the shoot" She explained and I almost scoff.
"You mean the same Blue Lee? " I asked furrowing my brows.
"Yeah ma'am"
How will they pair me with that introvert???
Although he's every ladies dream but he's too dull for my liking.
Anyways let see how it goes.
We got to Stanley corporations and after signing some documents, the deal was sealed and in three days time, The shoots will be taking place.
Nadine's Pov
"What did you mean by that? " I screamed over the phone.
"You aren't paired with Blue" He blurted and I feel like pulling his hair from the scalp.
He's just ruined my mood.
"So you mean the contract wasn't awarded to me" I scoffed.
"Yes ma'am "
"Okay who was paired with him?" I asked.
"He was paired with Margret Lincoln and the shoot will be taking place in three days time"
He explained and I almost ran mad, that bitch was paired with him???
Why is she always lucky everytime???
She's one of my rivals and we aren't compatible in any ways.
She's too gentle for my liking.
"This is bull shit " I screamed angrily smashing the phone on the wall.
Why can't they pair me with him???
Despite all the money I spent!!!
But I won't let this opportunity slip away from my hand.
Never!!!!!
I thought on what to do about it and after sometime, an idea popped into my head.
Yeah perfect!!!.
