Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 1

Can I just forget about it!

My head hurted on their everyday fights. Can I just have one day normal? I guess no. When you have a half sister and mother who care 0% of her illegitimate family member but then outside they shows it off like I'm their oxygen and they never gonna mistreat me and everyone says, leave them and I'm doing the said, then your wrong. Totally wrong or no one just don't want to feel how bad it hurts. My situation was just the same. Stuck between two blades of scissors and if I tried to push out one blade away to free myself, then I'm gonna cut myself and bleed to death. Funny! Isn't it. Not for me anymore. But still trying to show I'm doing great and nothing's wrong. Just pasting a bright smile everyday and every moment whenever it gets torn off. Everyone would think, 'why all this when you can be free?' and I say, 'I don't won't to be alone when I have a family whom I grew up with. No matter they aren't my real mother and sister but father, he gave me birth and taught me, 'never leave anyone's side of the people who you call yours, no matter how bad they're wrong. Just be calm and have faith and everything will be fine''.

The music launch was a great success and everything went well. Everyone praised the musicians and their creations. They were all aloof mesmerizing melodies that just got me off from my reality. Atleast something distracted me and got my mood in good. After the launch, the company organized the ceremony for the great success. It was boards decision to appreciate the hard work. Many employees, from small artist to bigger ones who helped in the creation of these masterpieces were invited including the owner of Riverdale Music Industry and family. I put down the invitation mail on my laptop and imagined the scene tonight. Of course Mrs. Riverdale and younger miss Riverdale will never let go any chance to show there so called "happy family". I cried up for emergency and called the "masterpieces of my history" up in my office for the meeting. "Do you got invite?" I asked them in suspense. "Yeah!" they cried in unison. "So its a code red tonight for three of us, be ready. And don't care about your jobs, I got 'em."

"We know, Matty. Chillax!" both in unison again. I can be relied upon them with my life.

Soon the night hit and everyone started to show up from eight onwards. The big shots were having the red-carpet entry from nine so untill then everything was under control. Not untill the real characters of the century arrived. The Riverdale family, so called "happy family" but I'm not included in them. Father says I ruins the family frame so they tend to keep me away and I say it's my style. Pathetic, isn't it? Oh not really! After they had there dramatic entry, I arrived. Did I said, I know how to slay any situation I've got, well I'm slaying the current one. I was dressed in most elegant bright sky blue, knee length, formal, embroidered dress with the nude makeup, my chocolate brown hair done in waves and daimond ear tops and everyone's jaws on ground. I started noticing all reactions from the moment I stood on the red carpet. Besides I were backed up by logan in handmade gray and black tuxedo and Darcy with professional corporate ivory and gray dress. No wonder Darcy insisted on wearing this atire to silence the family and rock the night. She was the fashionista since forever. With the winning smile on my face I walked down like a diva with my body hugging dress and five inch, silver stilettos. I can feel every eye on me, specially the eyes that I wanted to be on me. Pristines mouth was already on the floor with her mothers, but father was in disdain. Ahh! You've to see them afterwards. No worries I'll handle.

The celebration picked up a glamorous turn. The dazzling lights was glittering with shinning stars. They all were included with actors, actresses, models, singers, pop stars, producers, directors and guess who not. But in all between then I caught a lot of attention, specially from men section. They were glaring on my delicious curves which were perfectly penetrated in my dress who contributed a quite good showcase made my body look more sexy than usual. Thanks to Darcy for everything! Everyone was approaching and specially the men, that made me feel bit uncomfortable with there continuous gaze. But one thing was good, Riverdale family was left unapproached and that would've pissed the mother-daughter duo. I genuinely don't want to hurt them but just want to make them realize that I'm not an embarrassment to the family but a part of it. And leaving me alone isn't a good idea. We all can be together, but at least I'm trying to catch there eyes and waiting for there approachment, that's it. And it happened as expected, mother walked down to the bar where I was having my drink with cinematography director Hank Arther and talking bout our new music video. "Hello Mr. Hank, how do you do?" mother stretched her hand straight in middle of us. She was dressed in semi fancy mauve, satan dress with heavy makeup and girlish charm. Hesitatingly Mr Hank shook hands with mother and made a small talk. But I guess mother wasn't in mood to have only small talks, so she elaborated more and broke off our conversation, taking my place. This was more worse than abandoning me. This was counter protest against my actions. I continued to act further but it seemed they got my weakness again and the trio was interrupting my business without uttering a word. Ha! Easy defeat, I surrender. "Do whatever you want?" I blabbered to myself and crossed the bar to have a strong drink that can ease my mind. "One embassy cocktail, make it double please!" ordered to bartender. "One whiskey please!" a tall and familiar figure in armani suite appeared. I didn't totally looked up but still the aura felt so familiar to me that put my guards up in unusual manner. "Nice to meet you!" the deep voice ringed mysteriously in my ears. That's when I finally looked up and my mind got off for a moment.
