Capítulo 1: Chapter 1

**EARLY LIFE**

Olivia had been living with her grandmother, in the village for the past eight years. After eight years, she had already completed her elementary school. She was given a scholarship from her elementary school as the best student in the English language and overall best student in other subjects, because of her great performance in her academics, Olivia was given a scholarship to complete her high school at one of the biggest rich kids' schools in the city of Lagoon.

"Granny I made it!" shouted Olivia with a huge smile across the face

Her grandmother was excited by the news. They had to relocate to the city because Olivia didn't have any relatives with whom she could stay within the city. Mrs. Bill was the name her grandmother was usually called. They finally got an apartment with the help of Mr Charles. He was one of Olivia's father's friends which was unknown to Olivia yet. The man gave them a small house to live living. Both Olivia and Grandma were indebted to the man. They were very grateful and thanked him.

"Mr Charles, am grateful for your kind gesture towards me and my family. God bless you," said Mrs bill grateful and Olivia was smiling happily at the young man who helped her grandma secure the house

"It's nothing, grandma. I'm doing it for my late friend. I wish I could do more than this for you Grandma. Please manage this place for now." replied Mr Charles cheerfully

He told them he was doing it for his Bossom friend, who was Olivia's father and ever since then they haven't heard anything from Mr Charles again.

Olivia lost her parents at a very tender age. She was two years old when the accident happened. Her parents were a rich family before the accident. They were living in a big mansion in the city before the plane crash accident occurred. It was after the accident, that Mrs Bill discovered that Olivia's parents collected some loans from the bank. She had to sell Olivia's parent's house to settle the debts. The debt led the family to penury. Ever since then, Olivia has been living with her grandma at the age of two years old.

Mrs. Bill was a widow, a friendly and nice grandmother. She was a respected woman and also a godly woman in the village.

Olivia's father was her only son and Mrs bill loved him so much. Ever since the accident happened she had made up her mind to take good care of Olivia till her last breath. She loved Olivia dearly and never wanted her to suffer or feel her parents were no more.

*Five years later*

After five years, Olivia had grown up to be a beautiful, intelligent young lady and she had gotten used to city life through the help of his bosom friend Peter. Mrs Bill had been working at Mrs Smith's family house as a cook, ever since they had moved to the city from the village. Mrs. Bill works from 7 am to 4 pm from Monday to Friday. The weekend was usually her off days.

On a sunny afternoon, Mrs. Bill was coming out from her workplace, she carried a lot of foodstuff with her and she called her granddaughter Olivia.

"Olly Olly." no response Mrs Bill thought to herself inwardly.

Olly was the short name she called her granddaughter Olivia. There were only two people who called Olivia by that name, Grandma and Peter.

"Olly Olly, are you there?" Grandma called again.

"Granny, are you back?" asked Olivia inwardly from the house and she quickly ran outside hurriedly.

"Yes Olly, come out here, and take these from my hands." replied her grandma impatiently.

"Okay granny, am coming," said Olivia and she quickly dropped the school notes she was studying. Olivia quickly rushed outside to collect the foodstuffs from her grandma.

As soon as Olivia got outside, she was surprised with the loads of food stuff, her grandma was carrying in her hands.

Olivia's grandmother handed over the loads to her and said "Take this to the kitchen! We have a lot to prepare today." said grandma softly

Olivia looked mouth wide open and said to her grandma "Granny, where did you get all these from?" asked Olivia eyes popping open

"It was from my madam, Mrs Smith," replied Grandma cheerfully.

"Whoa! Whoa, so nice of her!" said Olivia huge smile across her face

"Yes she's very nice and sweet, even her kids too." replied her grandma smiling face

"Really?" asked Olivia, the corner of her mouth arising

"Yes, my dear," replied Grandma smiling

"I would love to meet her one day and thank her for her kind gesture, Granny," said Olivia softly, looking eagerly at her grandma.

"You will meet her one day." replied her grandma with an assured smile.

"Okay granny," said Olivia happily

They both entered the kitchen with the foodstuffs. She dropped the foodstuffs down "What are we going to cook?" asked Olivia curiously

Olivia's grandmother looked up suddenly thinking of what to cook and she asked her granddaughter directly "I think we should cook porridge sauce, or what do you think?" asked grandma expecting her to agree with the idea

Olivia started salivating over the food her grandma just mentioned. She gave in immediately

"Porridge sauce is a delicious meal to eat," Olivia thought inwardly and said

"Yes, granny, porridge sauce is better," replied Olivia salivating over the idea and her grandma smiled at her clasping hands

"Can you please bring out the potatoes from the sack for me." asked grandma

"Okay ma," replied Olivia

"And also blend the tomatoes quickly." said her grandma.

Olivia brought out the potatoes and checked them one after the other and she saw that they were good potatoes. "Sweet potatoes!" she thought to herself happily.

Suddenly, someone was knocking outside the door and Olivia looked up.

"Who's that?" asked Grandma.

"I think that should be Peter, he's here to help me with the assignment," replied Olivia abruptly.

"Oh! I see, go and open the door for him." said her grandma.

Peter's Williams family was Mrs Bill's neighbor and also Olivia's childhood friend blond, cute with dimples, tall and lean. Aside from his good looks, he was intelligent very humble, and godly too. Olivia grew up having him as her best friend, her adviser, and her protector.

They both played together like siblings. Sometimes people mistook them for brother and sister. Peter liked Olivia dearly, he looked over her like a lost puppy. Olivia liked Peter likewise, she loved him like the brother she never had. They both attended the same school and and also in the same class. Peter is older than Olivia with a year gap.

Olivia went out to open the door for him. "I knew it was you!" chuckled Olivia.

"Hi Olly," said Peter grinning.
