Priorities

It has been days since the last time she stepped out of her room. Her heart never felt heavier than it did the past few days. 

Yasmin was known as a confident and lovable person to everyone around her. The aura she brings along was like the warmth that comes right after the harsh winters. 

It was the kind that many yearned for but lacked. That was one of the many reasons people loved and adored her. She was a ray of sunshine to everyone except the only one that mattered. 

While she was all that and more in the public's eyes, the princess had a secret that no one knew. Deep down, she was insecure and sought validation from the rest.

It was one of the contributing factors that fueled her cruelty towards Malik. Prince Malik. Just thinking about his name filled her with pain unlike any she had felt before.
