just one night
Chapter 1
She sat beside her window as she stared at the sky, yes it has always been that way.
Starring at the sky every night had become her culture since she finished high school.
Leaving with an over religious parents had been something she had never loved but it's just that she had no choice but to .
No party, no friends tho they were freaky rich and living nice, most people do wish they just had an opportunity but they didn't know what she was going through.
"Anna, you better get you goddamn forsaken self out of this room. You don't expect us to keep waiting for you at the dining table, " her sister Clara said banging into her room and rolling her eyes .
Staring at her sister it was as if they are the opposite of themselves, the two never got along always getting on each other nerves.
"Are you gonna keep you boring self here or come out? "she half yelled getting mad of her silent treatment.
Arianna stared at her sister angrily. This demon in a human form, she had a tattoo on her leg and hand and also dyed her hair red and wearing a bumshot and crop top .
One reason she hated her more was why her parents treated her especially, tho she looks nothing like her parents, Clara and Hardin where just like her parents while she looks different.
Her parents where never nice and always strict to her. Maybe, it's because she once had a boyfriend in high school but it didn't last up to a week before she was exposed by that witch of a sister.
Arianna once had a crush on Camel and things went well with them but not until Clara found out and made a sex video of them and it went viral. Tho it was not her, her parents knew it wasn't her but they still called her a slut and the black sheep of the family.
She later found out that it was a planned game between Clara and Camel since they were both dating. After camel told her to her face that he would never date a nerd like her, how those words hurt?
"Are you gonna keep moping at the sky or follow me downstairs?" Clara yelled bringing her out of her thought .
"I said am not hungry," she half yelled at her sister and she scoffed .
"Anna, you better get down here or else a punishment awaits you, "she heard her dad say and she knew what that means.
"Bitch, "Clara cursed, walking away.
Arianna wore her glasses and touching her rosary around her neck to make sure it was there, she walked out.
Her rosary had been the only best friend she had.

"What took you so long come down here?" her dad asked glaring hard at her .
"I’m sorry, " she said sitting far from everyone.
"That's what you always say. Always behaving to be nice, but you are real bitch here," she heard her mom say .
"Mom, you don't really want to imagine what I saw her doing, "Clara said and Arianna raised up her head to see her devilish smile.
"What was she doing?” her dad asked curious.
"She was watching porn in her laptop" Clara told them smiling.
She stared at her, what exactly is porn and what is she taking about?
Her parents face where that of total horror even her brother looks shocked.
"Is that what you have been doing?" her dad screamed angrily at her.
"What's that?" she asked shifting backwards. She was as confused as they were, tho she had heard a lot of people taking about it but she really have no idea about it .
She had no mobile phone and the laptop was for reading and there was a camera in her room watching her every move and she wondered why her parents won't know if she was doing something bad, tho she felt like a prisoner being watched but she had no choice.
"Anna have you been watching porn?" her brother asked calmly, the only normal human being in the house .
"What's porn? I don't know what you are talking about," she replied staring at him and tears already coming out from her eyes.
"You liar and pretender that's what you would always say behaving to be a saint you dirty slut," her mom cursed angrily.
"Mom, Dad, that’s enough. Let's eat dinner in peace,” Hardin said calmly and everyone calmed down .
She just dug on her food sluggishly. She’s not hungry, well nobody cares that's just her, boring her and having the worst family ever .

"Happy birthday, Pretty," her brother said handing her a shopping bag after dinner.
"Today's my birthday?" she asked shocked, of course it was but she had forgotten yet birthday.
"Of course, how could you forget about it? "her brother said, jokingly hitting her head.
"Oh goodness am finally 18," she said smiling.
"And what's so special about it?” her mom asked and she just stared at her.
She really wonders if this woman really is her mother?
Her Dad just kept mute. It seems that her dad was controlled by her Mom.
" So, Anna you got admission into the best college in town, "her dad said and she felt a loud bang on her head .
"Oh my God! I am literally free,” she screamed within her.
"And you would be living with Clara because I know you would try to disgrace us by showing the world your slutty behavior," her mom said and she just glamped .
"I’m off," her brother said walking away.
"Mom, I can't let this nerd live with me in school. She's gonna embarrass me," Clara said walking away .
"So, you heard what your sister said. That means, you would be going to college from home," my mom said and I felt all my dream shatter.
"No, she isn’t. Anna, get ready. You are leaving for college alongside your siblings next week," her dad said.
"Oh my gosh, thanks Dad." Anna screamed running to hug him but his hands in my front of her telling her to stop.
"Am sorry,” she said sitting down.
"What did I tell you? You wanna seduce him right?” her mom asked, standing up .
"But I am your child,” she said biting her lower lips to stop the tears from coming out .
"Just get ready to leave,” her dad said, and grabbing her gift, she walks out.
Her birthday had never been something that was celebrated if it was Clara the house would have been filled up by now.
The last birthday party organized by Clara they had looked her up not wanting her to come out saying they were avoiding disgrace and her brother always gave her those pitiful stares she hates.
She put all the negative thought behind her at least she would be leaving next week she thought entering her room.
She opened the box her brother had given her and discovered it was a long strapless gown, so beautiful she thought admiring it.
Laying on her bed she slept off.
