Hated by the Alpha

My days went, as usual, home to school, then school to home. Nancy made my life colorful. She was a special angel sent by the gods. I applied for the entrance exam in the number one college in my city. New bane city, one of the largest and famous cities in my country. Well to add that Nancy insisted I apply there.

" Sometimes you have to make choices in your life. Your life may not be a bed of Roses. I may have fallen to a pit but when you look at every corner of that pit you may find a ladder that you can climb up and search for a miracle ". I wrote it in my diary. I had a habit of writing a diary. I used to write diaries when I was a little girl. I closed my diary and went to the kitchen to make dinner. Tomorrow is a big day where my entrance exam results will be published. I was looking forward to that day.

I spent many hours studying to get into that college. They also offered scholarships to students who get higher ranks. I hope I will make it to the top 10 students.

"Scholarship is all I needed. At least my account will be happy that it is getting something other than spider webs " I smiled thinking about that.

The next day, after finishing my daily activities, I took my usual bus. This time, the driver didn't scold me because I was always running and shouting behind it. He looked so pleased with himself.

As I was walking through the hallway on the way to my class I saw miss Rachel talking with miss Samantha. They looked thrilled early in the morning. I wonder why?. At the next moment, they both came running towards me with excitement. Their eyes sparkled while looking at me.

"Congratulations Maria Drew. You made it " she said, smiling while hugging me.

I was dumbfounded and shocked. I even forgot to close my mouth.

" You got the first rank. I am so proud of you Maria, "Rachel continued.

I was crying tears of joy. She wiped my tears and hugged me again.

I was on cloud nine. Everything around me stopped.

I did it. Finally, " First time in my life
