The Caged Butterfly

*Knock, Knock*

Selene Zhang woke up because someone is knocking on her room's door.

I am starting another boring morning on boring life. Everyone is commanding me what to do they don't even care on my opinion. Its hard to live in this caged life. She said in her mind

"Miss, Madam said that you need to have breakfast because you have a piano lesson today" the butler said.

"Okay" she said with a sigh. Sometimes she thought of her self being a beautiful butterfly in a cage and wants freedom.

She washed her face and wore a beautiful dress because she's afraid of disappointing her parents if she doesn't do what they said.

Everyone envy me and wants to be me but they don't know how difficult my life is. She said in her mind.

"Good morning sweety"

"Good morning dad, mom"

She wished that if she had a next life she will be born in a simple and happy family not like her family now. Her parents are perfectionist.

They always want everything perfect. If you make a simple mistake, they will punish you tell you you're not working hard.

Selene didn't enjoyed her childhood life like other kids because anything is wrong for her parents.

When she's high school she's always the number one and she never been the second. Everyone think she loves her life but little did they know that she hates everything she do.

How i wish to meet someone who will save me from this despair and sadness and will be my inspiration for not giving up. She said on her mind.

"Selene get dressed we are going on a party" her mom said.

"okay mom" she said with sadness on her eyes.

She wear a beautiful gown and she partner it with a diamond necklace. When she's done dressing she head down the stairs and she saw a handsome man sitting with her parents.

"Selene it's good that you are done dressing" her dad said.

"umm, dad who is he" she said out of curiosity.

"Dear, He is Liam Gu he will be your partner for tonight" her mom said.

"Good evening miss Selene let me formally introduce myself, I am Liam Gu the heiress of the Gu family and i am your fiance"

"Dad, Mom you guys didn't mention this matter about me"

Selene was super shocked about what the guy just said to her but she didn't have the courage to disagree about this matter because she's afraid she might made her parents mad at her and disappoint them.

"Miss Zhang i'm sorry if uncle Zhang and aunty didn't discuss about this matter with you but we are already engage since young"

Selene felt sad because she can't even choose who she wants to marry.

"Well Mr. Gu lets skip talking about this matter, i think we should go because we're late for the event"

"You're right Miss. Zhang so shall we?"

"Sure!"
