Anita Baker, a 24-year-old lady, just graduated from the university. She's the first daughter of her parents and has five younger sisters. Her father is a banker while her mother is a trader.
She's fair in complexion, very beautifully shaped with sexy curvy hips.
Amongst all her sisters, she's the only fair-skinned amongst them as the rest of her sisters are dark with some fair brown in complexion.
Anita looks like her mother but more beautiful as sometimes her father usually accuses her mother of cheating on him and he doubts he's truly her father as she's so white, but her mother has always kept mute about it and tells her not to mind her father that she's really his child.
Anita's father even threatens to run a paternity DNA test on her as he cannot understand why she's so white unlike the rest of her sisters.
Her immediately younger sister, Flora who's a 22-year-old dark skin beauty, also dislikes her even though she's two years older than her.
About four of her sisters hate her except for her youngest sister named Glory that genuinely loves her.
They say blood is thicker than water, but in Anita's case water is thicker than blood.
Anita's father, Mr. Joshua Baker, doesn't stop in sending her to school as he only accuses his wife of cheating on him and forcing another man's child on him so he could marry her, but nonetheless he still sends Anita to the university to study business administration.
Anita is so happy as she writes her final exams and the results finally come out in flying colors.
Well because of her father's constant accusation towards her calm mother, Mrs. Tonia Baker, Anita has refused to accept any relationship from any guy asking her out to be his woman, as she only goes out on a date with them but ends up rejecting their love proposal to her.
Anita's best friend in the university, Temisa Patrick, has also advised her to give love a chance but she refused and said, "My father constantly accuses my mother of cheating on him and yet he still goes back to her and gets her pregnant to birth the six of us. Mother says he loves her but his insults to her daily don't show to us that he truly loves her."
Anita shook her head as she spoke to her friend when they were still in year two in the university. Guys are tripping to have her, handsome and well-to-do guys, but Anita feels they only want to use her, and once they cross the bridge and break her virginity they will dump her or accuse her of cheating, just like her father constantly does to her mother, wanting to send her and her mother into depression.
Anita sits in a private room with her best friend preparing for their final convocation.
"Anita, I am so happy, finally we will be parting from this school, I cannot explain how much I have missed home," Temisa says.
"Me too," Anita faintly replies, knowing it isn't entirely true with her as she hates home and knows she will be facing her father's constant insults towards her and her mother again, while her three younger sisters, Flora, Esther, and Favour will want to torment the hell out of her, calling her an outcast as they're jealous of her looks, like is entirely her fault.
Anita shakes her head in sadness and Temisa notices.
"What is it, girlfriend? You don't seem to look happy, even though you're graduating as one of the best graduating students today in our university?" Temisa asks, as she stands up from her seat facing the mirror and walks up to meet Anita sitting on the couch, but she shakes her head again and stares away from Temisa, not responding.
"What's the problem, dear?" Temisa approaches and crouches in front of Anita, even though she knows what the problem is, as Anita has told her why she hates men in general and sees them as scumbags.
"Not to worry, when I get home I can talk to my mother to allow you to come live with us, even though it is just for your I.T, until you get a better job to cater for yourself," Temisa proposed.
"Thank you." Anita smiles faintly, and Temisa responds, "You're welcome. You know you're like a sister to me, so you don't have to worry or cry much. Graduating with a first class is no joke, so you should be happy, as today is your most blessed day. Come sit here, let me apply some makeup on your face."
Temisa pulls Anita to stand up from her seat, and Anita smiles faintly and walks to sit on the seat facing the mirror in their private room they share.
"You know I don't like makeup," Anita says as she sits and watches Temisa open one of her makeup kits and start preparing her brush.
"I know, but today is your lucky day, so you should look sweet when collecting your awards. So no excuses from you, just do this for me okay, as it will make you smile throughout today and lighten your mood," Temisa says.
"Okay," Anita replies and she stares at her beautiful reflection displaying in the mirror and Temisa starts applying the beautiful brown powder on her face.
Temisa starts on Anita's eyelashes first, and after that she switches to work on Anita's cheeks and nose, applying the beautiful makeup powder. As she's through, making her over, Anita is stunned by her new looks in the mirror as she has never applied makeup on her face before. Staring at her new reflection in the mirror, Anita is speechless as she now understands why Temisa has so many boyfriends.
Temisa is a billionaire's daughter as her father works in the Benson group of companies. The Benson family is one of the richest in their country, and Anita has read about the Benson family and wishes she could work for them. This is the reason why she studied so hard and read day and night to graduate as one of the best graduating students in her university.
Anita has thought of asking Temisa if she could help her ask her father for an application in the BENSON GROUP, but she knew if she did that, it might seem like she's trying to gain a favor which she didn't merit. It might make others see her as a golddigger or a lady selling out her body to men to gain favor from them. So she thought against it and decided not to ask Temisa for her father's help again.
"All done now. Don't you see how you look so sweet in the mirror, oh my god! I'm the best makeup artist here on campus," Temisa fans herself with her hand while Anita smiles at her.
"Don't over-hype yourself too much because of my girlfriend. Yes, you tried but still I don't like makeups," Anita admits.
"Tar! Shut up. I'm hoping a handsome guy will see you today and ask you out," Temisa giggles.
Everything about her is guys, as she changes boyfriends every month like pants and she's mean when it comes to multiple relationships.
She doesn't care what her fellow ladies have to say as she also doesn't believe in love, but rather spends time dating different guys.
Temisa never admits to sleeping with any of the guys she goes out on a date with, and that's something difficult to believe. As she's always seen with different guys, some at the beach, some in a restaurant, and some in a club house, taking different photos with her. Yet she claims she's still a virgin, after Anita also told her she was also a virgin.
Anita didn't believe Temisa because a virgin is supposed to be calm and keep to herself, so no guy will use her. But Temisa, she dresses hot, wearing bum shorts, crop tops, and all sorts of seductive and tempting clothes.
Temisa is a dark-skinned beauty, sexy curvy like Anita, but she isn't jealous of Anita being white and light-skinned. They're in the same department and studied the same course, making them become best friends.
Anita is more intelligent than her while Temisa is the party hard type.
"Let's go out now, I am sure most of our families will have arrived," Temisa says as she quickly packs her remaining things and makeup kits into her box and zips her box closed.
They rented the room, so they stayed back most times in the room even though the school is on holiday.
It's their final year to say goodbye, so Anita drags out all her bags and boxes as she's already going back home after the awarding ceremony.
They step out to witness the university final event and the awarding of the best graduating student.
Anita Baker was called and awarded a first-class award and recognition for her academic excellence, while Temisa is all smiles as she claps for her friend who steps out from where she's sitting among the crowd of groups of friends and families that attend their convocation ceremony, to go and receive her awards.
