Hi, I'm Emma Grace born on 1st of June 2001. I have jet black hair and dark brown eyes. I have nice and fair skin just like mom. Not only that, but I've been living a luxurious life ever since I was born. I'm the only daughter of the Grace family. Furthermore, I have one elder brother. Arlo (my brother)is nice and takes care of me, at the same time he irritates me the most too. Arlo is 3 years elder then me. My mom and dad loves us both equally, but they have to take care of me more because I'm the troublemaker. As I'm the youngest in the family everyone treats me like a princess. My parents own an entertainment agency. They do event planning, music production and many more. Our family is rich and famous, but my parents never let me and Arlo go in front of the media. I've been wanting to be a singer since I was 5 years old. I remember that on my 5th birthday mom invited the most famous singer of that time (Hollis). Hollis was really famous back then. She had a big fan following. Mom regretted inviting her, because all her fans ruined my birthday. But all I saw was that she was being loved by everyone. I was so fascinated by her back then. That day I decided to be a singer, because I wanted to be loved by everyone as Hollis was. I've never had any friends ever since I was in 2nd grade. Everyone had their reason to avoid me. When I was in 2nd grade I had a friend named Anya. Anya and I were best friends. We used to eat, study, play and even get punished together. But it didn't last very long. One-day I got followed by a stalker. He tried to kill me with a knife, Anya saved me from that demon and got hurt instead. We were very young, so it was hard for Anya to survive after what happened. Anya's parents didn't let me see her or meet her ever again. I don't know if she is alive or not. But I hoped she would be okay and happy wherever she would be. After that day mom and dad hired bodyguards for me. Mom and dad were worried that how did that stalker even know that I'm their daughter. Well it was said that someone took our photo when mom was dropping me off at school. That stalker didn't get caught. After that day the kids at school were scared of being with me. They treated me like I didn't belong with them. I always felt left out. I also wanted to have fun with friends and wanted to enjoy my life like everyone else did. But it was alright, I always thought that everything will be fine when I grow up. When I asked mom and dad that if I can be a singer or not, mom agreed, but dad said that it was too dangerous. I didn't get it. That how was it dangerous.

When I turned 16 I asked mom that I wanted to start my career now. Mom told me that dad won't allow It. I was upset so, I decided to talk to dad and convince him. I was confident that I would succeed. Likewise, I went to dad and said "hi dad! Can we talk?" dad always treated me like a princess and was always so polite. He replied me "yes honey! What is it" I then

asked him that dad can I start my career as A singer? a moment of silence. Then he said that daughter I told you before that it's very dangerous. I was confused and furious at the same time. I told dad that I'm confident that I would be safe and happy after being a singer. Dad said that mostly people won't hurt you physically, but they will hurt you mentally. I didn't listen to him anyway. I wanted to be a singer and that was all I knew. I was so mad at dad that I locked my self in my room and didn't listen to anyone. Arlo camera to my room and tried to talk to me. We were great friends, so I opened the door to him. He came in and I told him the situation. He said that he'll talk to dad. I was happy because I knew dad would never refuse Arlo's request. Arlo went to dad's room and asked him to consider his decision again. Dad didn't have any choice, but to say yes. Because I locked my self up and Arlo was requesting dad to say yes. After that dad came to my room and said" honey, you can do whatever you want. I won't stop you. But please don't lock yourself up. Come outside." I was so happy that I opened the door and hugged dad so tight. Dad was worried but also was happy to see me happy. Although he knew that this happiness wouldn't last long.

That day mom took me to the company and introduced me to all the co-workers as a new trainee. She didn't tell anyone that I'm her daughter. They wanted to test me before starting as a trainee. I agreed and went to the recording room. They asked me that which song would I like to sing? I had a favorite song and I wanted to sing it in front of everyone. So I chose the song for the test. It was "somewhere only we know". It was difficult to sing and everyone was shocked after hearing my choice. The worker there was named Andy. Andy asked me if I was sure. I replied yeah. I'm sure. They told me to start, and I did pretty well. They appreciated it. Andy said that mostly the new talents would choose an easy song but you choose a hard one. I was happy. That day my real life started.

Other than being a trainee at my parent's agency, I was a normal kid too. That was the time of my high school, I didn't have friends, but there was a person who took care of me secretly and would help me no matter what happens. I was not sure if he was interested in me or just pity me. Whenever he helped me my heart would melt for a second, but the very next moment I would think that he only thinks I'm pitiful. Then I would get angry. But he used to help me a lot. Sometimes he gave me butterflies. One day when the class ended the teacher told me to erase the board. The board is very big. I was erasing it, but I couldn't get my hand at the top of the board. He suddenly came and stood behind me. He held the eraser I turned around to see who it was, when I saw that it was Alain my heart skipped a beat. Not only that, but he looked so handsome. His deep black eyes, his sharp jawline, his pink lips, and his silky jet black hair. It was all so awesome. He gave me butterflies. Then suddenly he said "what? Are you checking me out right now?" I was confused, and my face started to turn red. I replied" what, what do you mean, why would I do that, that's nonsense. Right?" he smirked and said" yeah right, why would you do that" I smiled and ran away. Many more incidents like this happened. In easy words he was good to me. He always used to speak for me in front of everyone. I kind of liked him. But I always thought that he only pities me nothing else. Then after a little while we started to be friends. We used to share everything with each other. He knew all the ups and downs of my life. And I knew all his secrets. One day he told me that his dad used to hit his mom before his parents got divorced. He was just a little kid and had to go through so much. After we became friends, and he told me so much about himself. I started to think that maybe he doesn't pity me. I was happy only thinking about it. We first met when I was 9 years old. And we became friends when I was 12 years old. He was 1 year elder then me. He was a good friend of Arlo too. Arlo used to tell me that he is a great guy. Not just to me but to many people. I was so happy to know that he is a good guy, but I was sad at the same time knowing that he doesn't treat me differently. Then Arlo told me that Alain doesn't talk to many girls, he thinks that they exaggerate things. I was so happy to hear that Alain did treat me differently. But things didn't go so well for long. When I turned 16 and got in as a trainee, the first thing I did was that I ran to Alain's house and called him out. I hugged him as soon as he came out. Then I told him that I started training. He seemed a little off, so I asked him if everything was okay. He replied" Emma… I need to tell you something. I don't think I will always be there for you. I am going to US. I need to study there." I was so shocked, but Likewise, I didn't want him to be sad, so I didn't react a lot. I replied to him " that's fine! Don't be sad. What if you are not here, you will always be in my heart. Just study hard and fulfill your dreams. That's all I want. And don't forget me once you go abroad. Okay?" he smiled and nodded. That day I when I got home I was so sad that I cried the whole night and couldn't sleep. But I couldn't have done anything. So I just had to bear it.

After he left I was so lonely and sad. But then suddenly I was also so busy that I forgot how lonely I was. Then the real journey started.
