Chapter 1 - The Speech
Some say that if you are born into bad luck, no matter what you to to shake it off, it won't change a thing.
You'll still be unlucky, haunted by your ancestors mistakes and vile deeds. I didn't believe it at all at first but slowly, as I grew older, I did.
I'm someone who has been bathed with bad luck. My family name always brought anything but luck. My father was a drunk gambler and my mother died when I was young from an illness.
I slowly had enough of my father eating up our funds so I left him to start a new life in the city.
I got myself a job, a small apartment and I got into one of the best high school's on a scholarship.
I was on the top of the world, scoring marks that a young girl or boy could only dream of.
I attended nightly seminars and gained the respect of many professors who wrote recommendation letters for colleges and universities.
Finally, my luck was shining upon me.
However, everything went downhill when I met him.
It was the day of my graduation from high school. Everything was going well. My gown had arrived just on time and the train wasn't late.
My head turned when I saw my teacher frantically run towards me with a piece of paper.
Teacher A
There you are, child! Don't run away like that! Here, your speech cards. You forgot them in the faculty room!
I smiled and took them from my teacher's hands, giving her an ethereal smile.
Raine Blake
Thank you, Miss. But I've already learnt my speech off by heart.
Raine Blake
I thank you for running this far to give these to me.
I was an angel that radiated kindness. I was popular with boys and girls alike. My beautiful heart radiated wherever I went and no one ever saw me upset.
That doesn't mean that there wasn't times that I was upset.
Teacher A
Oh, I'm going to miss you so much! As the best student council president I've known, you will always be the pride of this school.
As always, everyone is so kind and flattering in this school.
Raine Blake
I promise to make you and the whole school proud.
Teacher A
Anyway, hurry on! You'll be late for the ceremony!
I nodded and quickly hurried on. As I walked down the corridors, eyes followed me and my simple smile.
A pair of girls two years under me walked up to me with tears in their eyes.
Girl B
Don't leave us! Stay for a little while longer!
I smiled sweetly and placed my hand onto the girl's head.
Raine Blake
All good things end. Both of you should concentrate on studying so that one day, we can meet again!
Both girls nodded excitingly.
Such innocent little girls. Seeing them refreshes my mind a little. If I was living in their privileged life, would I have turned out differently?
I guess that I'll never know...

Not a fan of genre, I prefer light romance novel. But the way you write is so good, no one ever writes as good as you are with chat stories on this platform.

Sometimes, unfortunate things bring out the best in us.
