~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Adriana:
Believe me when I tell you I have no idea how I ended up on a shore
An island shore
Specifically a deserted island shore
Naked.. Well half naked
But trust me though, this bra and thong I'm wearing barely cover anything
Thanks Victoria's Secret, now I lost all interest in knowing your secret
But hey at least I'm not all alone..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I heard a faint knock on my bedroom door, I rolled my eyes knowing who it might be and why she's here
I sighed and said loudly "Come In" but she was inside before I could even finish my sentence
Typical Rosalinda
Show some respect for your own mother!
And my annoying conscious strikes again, yeah yeah whatever
There isn't one motherly bone in her body
"Oh darling! What a mess! We aren't going to some regular boring party that mediocre people attend! It's a yacht party, do I really need to remind you whose the host?!! DRESS TO IMPRESS! And add a bit more foundation I see a pimple bigger than your breasts" Rosa-Mother blurted as soon as her eyes landed on me, but you know what I'm very surprised she was able to say all these words without taking a break, you know all the Botox usually interferes with her ability of speaking.. So A+ for her effort
I realized I've been talking to myself for a bit too long because she started snapping her fingers at me, I snapped my head up and looked at her, she was giving me a very disappointed look, not that she ever gives me a look of approval
I tried smiling sweetly but it came out very fake as I spoke
"You might want to be careful while doing this move, you don't want another fake nail falling now do you mother?"
Her jaw almost hit the floor, she can be such a drama queen, she's acting as if I've never sassed her before
"Don't sass me young lady! Or for help me God I'm locking you in this room and will attend the party with Ernesto only!" Her nostrils were flaring
Woah take a chill pill fam
Lol Ernesto, boyfriend number 546709.
I don't even know who is my father

I finally thought about an answer and replied to her
"You know what? I don't want to go, so go ahead lock me here, it's way more fun anyways"
I saw her stride gracefully to where I was seated at the vanity,
be careful not to fall on your face with those heels! We also don't want every chemical filling your face to explode!
I wanted to say that to her but knew it's smarter to keep my pretty little mouth shut .. For now
What seemed like fifty hours later she finally made it to where I was and slammed her hand on the table
"NO! You are coming! You're almost twenty eight years old and still single! The host's son is a freaking millionaire and he was interested in you when he saw your picture, I don't know why either but you are obliged to come, I need you to finally get married and to leave this house!" She shrieked meanwhile I was humming a tune in my head waiting for her to finish rambling
I wanted to burst out laughing when I heard her say I'm almost twenty eight.. I'm actually twenty two and it was my birthday a week ago
Told you she had no motherly bone in her body!
But you know what's funny? It's that I couldn't give a single F^ck about this dumb party! I'm sick of all these fancy dinners and of talking to fake ass women who be all dolled up and dressed in the most elegant dresses.. And don't get me started on how I'm supposed to act.
Sometimes a girl just wants to be left alone in her oversized hoodie, with a bucket full of greasy food and sweets, while watching her favorite TV series from Gossip Girl, to How to get away with murder, Teen Wolf...
But that isn't allowed in my world, I can only eat anything green, or low fat, and gluten free
Sometimes I think about painting Oreos green maybe then she'd let me eat one
The sound of her heels tapping on the wooden floor brought me back from my reverie and I realised she was waiting for an answer, I looked up and saw her arms were crossed under her chest
I sighed and nodded with "Fine! Give me ten minutes and I'll change into whatever dress you choose for me to wear" with that being said she smiled triumphly and started walking towards my closet room
Although I really despise almost everything about her, but she was the best expert in fashion
Makes sense since she owns a very famous fashion store and is a fashion designer!
She was wearing a sparkly maxi blue navy dress, that slit at the side showing off her long lean legs, her fake blonde hair was curled and her face was caked with make-up
Moments later she came out with two dresses in both her hands
A maxi velvet one & a little tight black lace dress

I felt like being a bomb ass b*tch tonight so I chose the black one, like my soul.
I stood up and took it out of her hand and hurried inside the dressing room to put it on, I striped out of the red dress I was wearing which by the way was way too comfortable and put on the black one
It hung perfectly on my hips, showing off few curves.. Although it was too tight around my chest and booty but other than that it was perfect
If theirs one thing I'm proud of its that I have a very high self esteem, which comes out as a shocker since my mom is always dragging me down
With one last look at the mirror I got out and waited for my mom's opinion.. Oddly she gave me an approving look
"Gorgeous!" She shrieked, she was definitely talking about the dress, not me but either ways I smiled
She pointed at a box on my bed and I walked towards it and opened it, I found sparkly silver stilettos laying there, I grabbed them while admiring their beauty and put them on
Okay I love these heels they're pretty but I rather sneakers
"Excellente! Garcia, oh Garcia!!" Mom yelled
Garcia was one of our maids
She had a very remarkable talent, the reason mom had kept her
She's very good at styling hair & putting make-up..
Moments later Garcia came running inside the room
"Yes Madame?" She said while breathing hardly
"Take care of Adriana's hair & fix her face.. You have fifteen minutes maximum!" Rosalinda said and left the room
I looked at the poor lady, she instantly motioned for me to sit down, she barely had time!
And fifteen minutes later she was done
Her hands are magical I tell you
As if on cue mom came rushing inside the room
"Let's go Ri! The limo is here!" She said and I stood up from my seat
"Thank you Garcia! You're awesome!" I chirped and she nodded sweetly while mouthing you're welcome
I grabbed the silver clutch
Don't tell anyone but I hid a bar of Lindt chocolate inside!
I looked at my reflection one last time, admiring the make-up I convinced Garcia of putting.. Just one layer of mascara, blush and velvet colored lipstick
I turned and walked outside the room, with Garcia following behind.. Mom was already halfway down the stairs when I started making my way down
Once we were finally outside, I saw Ernesto standing by the Limo's door waiting for my mom
Though his eyes were fixed on me
Ew
He reached out for my mom's hand and kissed it as he opened the door for her and they entered, i took my seat closing the door behind me
"Off to Mr. Massarotti's yacht" Ernesto commanded to the chauffeur and the limo was off
I wanted to throw up due to the sounds Rosalinda & Ernesto were making right now
I closed my eyes and rested my head on the window as I started dreaming of something very important in my life
Oh pizza
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I opened my eyes and sighed in frustration when the limo stopped and I knew we had arrived
The Chauffeur, Milo, opened the door and I got out, not forgetting to thank him first
"So uh which way is the Yacht?" I asked once mom was out, she was holding onto Ernesto's arm like her life depended on it
Well it did depend tho, she always wanted to show off her new boyfriends, and to gloat about how they always beg for her attention and blah blah when in reality it's she that does that
"Haha honey we already are inside the yacht" she laughed her high pitched annoying laugh
But that's not important right now
HOW ARE WE ALREADY ON THE YACHT
they started walking so I followed them, as they made their way towards a small staircase that led to the deck
It was making sense now seeing all the parked Limos and the sound of soft classical music playing
We finally made it up and I was taken back by how elegant everything was..
Women and men were seated everywhere, there was a bar with stools at the very end
A few were swaying to the music, okay now I don't blame mom for dressing me up like this.. I feel a bit underdressed too..
Every single person here was flaunting their designer dresses or suits..
"Ahh! The Lockwood's !! Very pleasant to see you!!" A tiny old bald man in a suit was standing in front of us waving excitedly and smiling warmly
"Silas! It's our pleasure to be here! Thank you for the invite" mom said softly
The man, Silas, opened his arms and hugged my mom and Ernesto he then looked at me and eyed up from head to toe, he then looked at my face and gave me a very appreciative look
"Ahh bellísima!" He said and hugged me
Okay this is awkward.. But I hugged him back.. He looked very friendly
"Gracias" I said to him and he smiled
"Your table is over there! My son will be here soon!" He smiled at my mom and winked at me then pointed towards a table
Wait is this Mr Massarotti??
He seems too nice to be a billionaire
Oh well I guess people do surprise you
We went and took our seats, my eyes widened when I saw what was waiting for ME there
Pft no, not a guy... Even better
A buffet
My mind instantly went like
Each table had its own buffet, maybe after I devour this whole buffet I'll go meet new people and sit with them just for the sake of their food
Well the night isn't half as bad as I thought it would be..
What I didn't know is that I spoke way too soon

8 117Voidsong (A NaNoWriMo 2018 winner)
Synopsys: The Empire thought humanity died, and forgot all about it. The Empire is mistaken. A Note From the Author: This story was written as a National Novel Writing Month 2018 entrant. As such, its entire 50,000+ word length was written between November 1, 2018 and November 31, 2018. Overall, I would consider this no more than a polished draft. In that vein, the chapters have no names, only numbers. Special thanks to Chronus on youtube for answering my questions on NATO radio procedures! My Apologies to the Finnish Language, which I have abused in (probably) unforgivable ways to create Twisted Empire names. If anyone is interested, break the names up by commas and toss them into your favorite translation program (I used Google Translate, and tried to avoid umlauts and other accents) for some semi bilingual boni. If I got something wrong (and I know I did… somewhere…) let me know over on reddit and I will see what I can do to fix the mistake. Lyrics, where included, are cited in footnotes.
