"There is only one happiness in this life and that is to be loved" - George sand

Aurora has always been the 'unattractive, unattainable' girl throughout her whole life. No man has ever approached her with the intention of courting her, rather they approached her to learn more about her best friend. She was better known as a 'DUFF'. But now with her best friend dead and a baby depending on her, she finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage that will test and strengthen her character. Like most 21st century women, she views herself as a feminist. One who doesn't believe in love. She views love as a Capitalist movement created to control unsuspecting minds while breaking their bank accounts. But she finds herself falling in love with a man. Not just any man, her friends boyfriend who also happens to be her husband.

Surgery has always been something that allowed her to sleep at night because the thought of me having something she wants always made her uncomfortable. She grew too comfortable with being labelled the 'beautiful' one whenever we were together or our features were compared

It did not phase me at the time because l was used to such comments, never being anyone's first choice. And she grew too comfortable with that. It was never competition between us, that would be like comparing a princess and a swan, as we have been told countless times but the passive aggressive attitude and comments raised a few eyebrows
