Only one thing can upset anyone about you that would go a long way, wanting someone of higher status like that. The minute I said that to my mum she changed. Wait a second one thing can even cost you your life wanting the hero.
The hero is someone whom the people rely on. I guess his girls are picked for him and being from his city, my mum knows about how the picking is done. Those girls you see they are sponsored. They become 'delectable' international stars and then they go after him. From the much I learnt about him, he wasn't so happy with the arrangement he wanted any girl to get a chance.
Many of them don't come home cos it is a rep thing. They are keeping up their rep, the rep of one, being international stars. For me I come from a wealthy home when we come home we stay in hotels, except we get an offer of a home a nice one at that. We stay in hotels for our full stay, be it a weak or month. We are wealthy don't get me wrong but I am no international star. I am just an average girl from an upper middle class home.



I see you all wondering what is so special about this kind of thing you want your own success story, it starts and begins with you in the centre paying attention to what matters first and foremost your skin has to be top notch, your hair follows, your make up everything, you have to take care of your beauty. Beauty is a ticket that can open any door.

It opens any door to you.

When I was younger I had to work to stay as the new born I was. How did I do it make sure my skin don't get ashen, take pills work on my look, exfoillIate etc. And yes it worked.

I stay in AC morning to night and use oil bare oil as my tan. When its cold I don't hurry to get heavy heaters, I allow the cold to get to me a little and use only mild heaters.


I am not anorexic but don't eat all the time. I eat only three times a day and when am hungry to give me the right shape and look that I need.


Which takes me back to the same topic being into the hero. The hero is everyones hero don't forget that, your hope is that people hate him but that's a lie he keeps people alive and they appreciate it whichever way that someone cares enough to do that.

They love him, if you want him you have to be ready to be hated and treated as if you are no longer special.


I guess all the girls who wanted him have faced this indeed. It is normal.
The day you state you want this man you get treated like you are ordinary by male and female. Nature chose us to be together so I believed no one would object to it. I look good too so there would be no need to object since he would eventually find me.
My mother found it hard to give me away, she was disheartened she felt like it was a cheat on her to give away her good, decent daughter to a man of such experience. But I advised her to forget that. And put my happiness first and the happiness of the hero and her hero too. We are from the same city and so we are like family even if the location we are at we joined other communities and settled down. I am familiar with my culture and love it. I also learnt other neighbouring cultures. I love to be myself. I love my city!
