A childhood without childhood

The story that I am going to tell you is far from being a romantic novel, it is a story that is born in the dark and only feeds on it.

It all started in 1995, when the Becketts arrived in Britain after their trip around the world, in 1996 a girl was born, Thomas Beckett's heir, Charlotte.

Charlotte was a beautiful baby, full of life and joy, her parents were powerfully rich, so money was not a problem for her. She grew up surrounded by everyone's love and attention, as the daughter of Britain's most famous lawyer, the cameras were always focused in her direction.

However, tragedy swept through the Becketts three years after the arrival of little Charlie. In the summer of 1999 a stranger entered the Beckett house, circumventing all security, he entered through the window of the infant's room, who was sleeping peacefully in her bed. The next morning the heartrending scream of Marié Beckett awakened the alert of half the neighborhood.

Hours later the Becketts were in the police department accusing the crime "child abduction". After that tragic day, no more Charlotte Beckett was heard, she disappeared, leaving her mother devastated and her father drowning in a feeling of anger and revenge.

That was the worst year for the powerful family, Thomas stopped working to try to track down his daughter. Marié retired from modeling and shut herself up in her huge house, now gloomy and sad.

You wonder what happened to little Charlie? Well, while the Becketts mourned the loss of her baby, she was flown to Puebla, Mexico, on the other side of the world.

She was adopted by a highly millionaire family, I even dare to say that she was richer than the Becketts, however the money they spent was not clean money. That's right, Charlotte was adopted by a mob family.

She stopped being called Charlotte Beckett, and became Mia White, the daughter of an ordinary businessman who had a fortune and problems with alcohol since his wife died at the hands of her dirty business.

In 2002 Mía turned 6 years old, and like any girl who started her studies she saw it as an opportunity to make friends, on the other hand, Erick, her “father” saw it as an opportunity to get rid of the little one. ”. inconvenience. "As he called it.

While her friends played with dolls or had fun painting, Mia spent her hours at school reading or drawing, sitting in a corner away from everyone. She never fit in with the rest, and she never would.

That was until 2008, when she finished elementary school, her father decided to travel again to escape certain deadly enemies in the country.

She arrived in Madrid when she was only 12 years old, and there she settled with her father. For the next 5 years she lived surrounded by domestic violence and abuse. They put her to work to maintain the house in which she and the man lived.

To avoid this she stopped coming home, when she left school, she would go to the nearest park or with some boys to hang out. However, she never neglected school, because according to her it was the only good thing she would get in her life.

In 2014, when he was 18 years old, he decided to leave and never come back, one night he took his suitcase, packed all the clothes he could and the money he had saved just for that moment and quickly left the apartment, he did. She didn't turn around for a second, she just wanted to escape from that place.

She went to the train station and took one that would take her as far from Madrid as possible. The next morning she was miles from Erick White, she felt free, and then she wanted to take advantage of that freedom.

Although Mia, she grew up surrounded by darkness and violence, she never showed that she wanted to follow those steps. She continued with her life and graduated as a lawyer in 2018, something told her that she was born for that profession.

~ Ironic right? ~ She thought. ~ Being a lawyer and having roots in a family full of gangsters and murderers.

Every day she cursed the fact of being born into a family like that, and although she looked happy during the day, at night she drowned in alcohol in the same way that a certain person did when she was 14.

Her life became a sad story, and she carried guilt and sins that were not her own. She liked to think that her destiny was to be a lawyer to save people who suffered injustice at the hands of people like the one who belonged to her family.

But the truth was that she did not consider herself good at that either, she felt that something was missing, that she did not fit in that place. Or that perhaps he had adopted it from her mother.

Not knowing her or in photography she wanted to investigate about her. And by coincidence she found a report from 1999, where the tragic event of the Becketts was related.

After thinking about it and seeing that it was a pathetic attempt to find a reason for her rarity, she returned to Madrid ready to fit into that bloody and cruel world, she asked about her father and was surprised when she found out that he was dead .

~ For better or for worse you were his only company ~ said the informant. ~ When you left the business declined and so did he, he couldn't bear it and the next day the forensic officers picked up his body.

~ Who is in charge of the business? ~ She asked, interested.

~ The only White heiress, Mia ~ the man replied.

He sighed, it was obvious that only she would control such a business, because despite her mistreatment, her father only trusted her.

~ Good, but I want to clarify that as this business is under my control, the administration and the rules will change. We will clean up as much as possible and eradicate most of the garbage my father left behind.

There was no comment, she requested a training to be able to be at the level of the position and so it was, two years later, in 2020 to be exact, there was no trace of the pathetic and weak Mía White. Now she was just a successful 24-year-old lawyer leading the mob. A billionaire woman with no family who controlled the largest and most imposing business in history.
