Just a cliché modern Cinderella story. Park Jiyeon is forced to become a servant to her step-mother and evil step-sisters (Doyeon and Suzy) after both of her parents passed away. Because of her sisters' orders, she's forced to look like a nerd all the time when she's actually a natural beauty. When she meets the Prince Charming of the school, Kim Myungsoo, she falls in love with him. But Myungsoo's parents want him to get engaged and married as soon as possible so they throw a party for his 18th birthday. Jiyeon, along with the help of her unnies T-ARA, disguises herself and goes. Myungsoo falls for this mystery girl but will he be able to find out who she is?

P.S: Happy ending with MyungYeon and T-Finite plz? And can the party be a masquerade party?

“PARK JIYEON! GET THE TOWELS FROM THE CLOSET TO ME NOW!”

“YES, MOTHER!” Jiyeon rushed towards the closet in her stepmother’s room, leaving the wet floor behind since she was cleaning the floor up.

“PARK JIYEON! WHERE IS MY JEWELRIES?! DID YOU STEAL THEM?!”

Jiyeon rushed to her first older stepsister’s room and pulled her jewelries box out from the bottom of her closet, “Here it is, Doyeon-ssi.”

“YAH! PARK JIYEON! GET ME A CUP OF WATER NOW!”

Jiyeon rushed to the kitchen, get a new cup of cold water, and brought it up to the second older stepsister’s room, “Here you go, Suzy-ssi.”

“AH! IT’S SO COLD! I WANTED WARM WATER! DON’T YOU KNOW I’M HAVING MY PERIOD?!”

Jiyeon gulped in surprised when she felt the cold water on her face, “I’ll get it for you now, Suzy-ssi.”

“GO NOW!”

Right before Jiyeon could step out from her room, a loud thud was heard, followed by a loud shriek. “YAH! PARK JIYEON! ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?! WHO SAID YOU CAN LEAVE THE FLOOR WET?!”

Jiyeon widened her eyes and rushed down the stairs, only to find Doyeon on the ground, trying to rub her pained .

“YOU’RE SUCH A PAIN IN THE ! OMMA! PUNISH HER!”

Jiyeon could feel a cold shiver running down her spine, and she knew her stepmother was right behind her.

She turned around, and indeed, she was being towered by her figure. “Who said you can leave the floor wet? HUH?!”

“No… No one, mother.”

“CLEAN IT UP AND GET GOING TO THE WINDOWS NOW!”

“But mother… I just-”

“I know you just cleaned it but I want it cleaned again.” Her stepmother smirked before walking towards the door, “I’m going out now. Make sure you finish it before I return. GIRLS!”

Her two daughters rushed to her side but not before making a mess in the living room again. “Enough girls. Well done.”

The two girls high-fived each other and followed her mother out, to another party that night.

Jiyeon was curious about those parties since she never went to one before, but if it was with her step-family, she rather not went.

At least, she had some time to spare for herself at home when they were gone.

Jiyeon looked at the huge mess in the room and sighed in sadness, “Another tiring night again…” She had been cleaning the house ever since forever and all she did was to clean.

If she doesn’t do as she was told, her stepmother would get her out from her current school, and kicked her out of the house, that was how she was being threatened.

Well, she couldn’t be kicked out too, since the house was under her name as passed down by her father.

At least, she was grateful for that.

Her parents passed away, leaving her alone to fight in this world. Jiyeon took the locket out from beneath her shirt and opened the small locket just to take a good look at her parents.

Yes, she placed her parents’ photos in the necklace, so she could see them whenever she wanted to.

Why that locket?

Because she had no more photos of her family. Her stepmother burnt everything left from the Park family, leaving nothing behind.

Jiyeon managed to get a photo after searching through the ashes, and therefore, she could place both of their faces into her locket.

And whenever she was tired or upset, she would bring the locket out and looked at it. She needed strength to carry on.

Jiyeon’s mother passed away when she was only 8, from a fight with the cancer. She was then left alone with his father, and they were dependent on each other so much.

However, since Mr. Park thought Jiyeon might need a mother figure to teach her, he found someone else, and married her in.

So at the age of 14, Jiyeon had a new mom, and two new sisters older than her.

Whenever Mr. Park was off to work, Jiyeon would get bullied by her sisters and her new mother. Of course, they threatened her not to speak a word out too.

When Jiyeon was 17, her father finally passed away from an accident.

Jiyeon was left alone to fight against the evil step-family of hers. It had been a year since Mr. Park was gone, and as such, it had been one year ever since Jiyeon became their ‘maid’.

Jiyeon placed her locket back beneath her shirt and cleaned the house in a hurry, in case her evil step-family returned before the expected time.

They just loved to give her ‘surprises’, and if they found her work not done, they would add on to her work, not allowing her to sleep.

Since Jiyeon knew about their tricks, she hurried her movements and cleaned the house up again.

Finally, she was done.

And she was glad since they were not back yet.

Jiyeon even had the time to take a shower before turning in for bed. She moved up to the small pent room and hide under her small and thin blanket, on her small mattress.

That was her room, and that was her only privacy in the house.

She was somehow glad that her step-family hated cramp rooms, so they never once stepped into her room before.

Just when Jiyeon was about to fall into her dreamland, she could hear her name again. “PARK JIYEON! GET ME A BUCKET OF WATER FOR MY LEGS NOW!”

“ME TOO! PARK JIYEON!”

“PARK JIYEON! I NEED IT TOO!”

Jiyeon heaved a sad sigh before admitting to fate again.

Once again, she only slept at 4AM even though she had school the next morning.

♥♥♥♥♥

She got not much of sleep since it was only two hours before she woke up again. Jiyeon was being ordered all around, just like every morning, and she finally rushed out of the house after making sure they had no more orders left for her.

“PARK JIYEON! WEAR YOUR ING SPECS! HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU NEED TO BE TOLD THAT?!”

Jiyeon gasped and placed her huge glasses on in a hurry, “Done, Suzy-ssi.”

Suzy rolled her eyes and ate her breakfast then, satisfied with her obedience. Well, she was told to go to school as a nerd figure, so no guys would get near her.

They didn’t want to admit she was a real beauty, but deep down, they told her to wear it because they were afraid the guys would hit on her.

Why were they still eating breakfast?

Well, it was actually early, and Jiyeon always excused herself to school earlier since she wanted to escape from their wrath quickly.

The two evil sisters munched on their breakfast slowly, but fastened their paces once their evil mother rushed them.

Well, they had to take a bus too.

Jiyeon reached school in no time and pounced right on top of her friend she saw first. “QRI UNNIE~~~~~”

“YAH! PARK JIYEON! GET DOWN NOW!”

“No~~~~ Please don’t call me by my full name.”

Qri bit her lips and smiled sheepishly as an apology, “I forgot about it. It just came out! I’m sorry, dino!” And she slapped with her hand, “Stupid mouth! Bad mouth!”

That only caused Jiyeon to laugh in bliss.”It’s alright, unnie~ I was joking too!”

They shared a good and tight hug before the rest of the girls finally arrived at the main gate. “Let’s go in now~”

Jiyeon sighed in bliss as they walked towards their classroom, “I love this time the most, for real.”

Her friends looked at her sadly. They knew about her situation, and they tried many things to help her too, but they always failed.

Jiyeon would still return to that hell again, at the end of the day.

Soyeon ruffled her hair and smiled sweetly, “Don’t worry. I’m sure it will be over soon.”

“Thank you, unnie~”

They returned to their classes and agreed to meet during lunch period then. Jiyeon sat on her table, which was right beside Hyomin. These two were lucky enough to get into the same class, whereas the rest were alone in each of their level.

And thank goodness, Jiyeon wasn’t in the same class at her two stepsisters.

“Class! Attention here, please.”

The class turned silent slowly, as they heard their teacher’s words. “An announcement this morning! Test coming up next week!”

The students groaned but the teacher continued. Jiyeon was simply normal, since she could aced the test easily.

The lesson ended quickly, and the students rushed off to the cafeteria for their lunch in a hurry. No one wanted to be in a queue too.

Jiyeon however, excused herself to the garden since she had no appetite. She sat under a huge tree and closed her eyes, trying to take a small rest since she didn’t sleep much last night.

When she had rest enough, she could finally open her eyes in bliss.

To her surprise, a man was standing in front of her, trying to block the sunlight away from her face. She looked up and her eyes widened at that figure in front of her.

It was as though he was in suit, with a white horse behind him.

Yes, in Jiyeon’s eyes, he was just like a prince charming.

Jiyeon’s smile grew wider at her imagination, while she looked at him dreamily. “Am I dreaming…?”

“No you’re not.” He spoke, and Jiyeon finally snapped out from her embarrassing moment. “I… Erm… I…”

That made the man laughed.

His laughter, was like music to her ears instead.

The guy invited himself and sat right beside Jiyeon, which caused the poor girl to tense up. “Relax. I won’t bite. I’m Kim Myungsoo, what about you?”

“Kim… Kim… Myung… soo…”

“Yes, yes.”

“The one who’s the heir to the Kim Hotel Group? That Kim Myungsoo?!”

“Yes, it’s me.” Myungsoo sent her a smile and winked playfully, “You haven’t told me your name yet. And I can’t see your nametag~”

“Oh!” Jiyeon was embarrassed again, and Myungsoo found it so cute. “I’m Jiyeon! Park Jiyeon!”

“Jiyeon… It’s a nice name.”

“Omma gave it to me, saying it suits me a lot.”

“It does suit you.” Myungsoo giggled, “Your omma has good taste!”

“Thanks…” Jiyeon smiled, a sad one, and he caught it immediately.

“What’s wrong?”

“Eo?”

“You looked sad all of the sudden. Did I say something wrong?”

“No. No… It’s just… I missed my mother.”

“Where is she now? She’s not with you?”

“She’s in heaven now, with my dad.” Jiyeon whispered as she looked up to the sky, “They told me they will be waiting for me up there, and they told me to have fun before joining them when I grow old.”

“I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine! It’s not your fault!” Jiyeon giggled and waved it off. She took a locket out, trying to change the atmosphere too, “Wanna see my parents?! They’re real beauty and handsome!”

“Can I?”

“Of course!” Jiyeon showed him the photos in the locket, and he admitted they were real good-looking.

They chatted for so long, and they got to know so much more about each other. As if it was fate, the both of them felt attracted to each other.

“Right. Why did you help me just now? You know… the sunlight…”

“I saw how messed up your face was so I helped you with the sunlight, of course! Your face was just too ugly so I had to help.”

“Yah!”

“I’m joking~ I’m joking~”

And they shared a good laugh again.

The bell rang, and just like that, they returned to their classroom after a goodbye.

Both believed fate, after all.

♥♥♥♥♥

It had been two days, and Jiyeon hasn’t seen Myungsoo around. She would head over to the same tree when lunch arrived, but he won’t appear.

That made her sad, of course.

But she doesn’t know Myungsoo wasn’t even in school.

Jiyeon dragged her
