*Lisa the lead of our story who just woke up by her mother's voice.*

'Good morning mom' with a beautiful smile.

'Has Mona called you for this'?? Lisa's mom asked this question very shockingly.

'Yep mom otherwise why would I have been going for it…!'

*Lisa's mom* 'Well it's good that she is getting married don't you have any plans for marriage lisa...?'

'Come on mom....!' *Lisa with shock and irritating face* 'I haven't achieved my dream yet how can I think of any other plans when I haven't completed my first plan yet. Mona didn't have many plans for herself, so it's better for her to get married. But I am different I have plans, and I am going to live Life according to My plans....'

*Lisa's moms with a worried expression silently watching lisa's eyes which is shining while talking about her dreams*

*Lisa moms wishing silently*

'Oh God please help my daughter this new year don't let my girl be disappointed again in this new year let my little girl who is dreaming big hear Good news'

*Lisa is from the middle class family background her father has left Lisa and her mom at a very young age to live on their own. Her family is run by her mom's vegetable shop. Lisa was raised by her mother alone. Lisa has seen a lot of hardships at a very young age. Silently she doesn't believe in any men she doesn't believe that any man can be loyal she thinks if her father can leave her then any other man can do the same. So from a young age she is determined to live alone for her life. She hides this thought of her living alone from her mom She is scared that if her mother knows about it her mother will think she didn't raise her good or didn't provide enough love. but in reality Lisa's mom has given Lisa more of a love that could exist in the world. Lisa feels enough with her mom's love alone. Now she only wants to achieve her dreams to be a top designer who earned a lot and gives her mother a luxurious life so her mother can forget their hardship*.

*Lisa is from the small zeng village Town where she completed her studies but for her dreams she has to go to other big cities but coming from a small village to Big City is a tough task. Villege people think Lisa is Selfish for thinking of leaving her town and mother for her dreams. She should stay and be loyal to her Town and family. But Lisa's mom supports her fully and stands by Lisa every decision like a shield. if lisa achieves her dreams to move into Big in the city then lisa is going to be the first person or girl to be out of her town*

*Let's be the part of this selfie girl journey let's see how she became selfish while being sweet*
