Chapter 2 - AXEL AND ELLE

In the morning, Nara woke up but Selli was long gone, she couldnt stay since she had no reason and she felt ashamed and dumb for what shw did, Logan didnt get any dirt on his name, but he crushed poor Selli's dream.

With the little money Selli had, she stayed in the city as she didnt have much miney to buy a ticket and felt embarrassed to go back to russia with all her country people had trusted her with, to win the crown which she didnt.

Selli was the headlines for over a week, the paparazzi couldn't stop writing about her bad things as Logan was behind it.But in the end, Nara won the contests and was crowned miss world 1999.

Selli failed to get a job since her face was now familiar for the scandal, she had to leave the spotlight and lay low.She later got a job working in restaurant as a waiter to raise her pregnancy.

But male customers didnt let her work in peace as she was irresistibly beautiful, but they stopped when her pregnancy surfaced.

After nine months, she gave birth to twins, a boy and girl who luckily looked nothing like their shady dad, Logan.She named the girl Elle and the boy Axel, they were blonde like her with blue ocean eyes, just like hers, they took her beauty.

But she was fired from the restaurant when her twins were just ten and yet again, it was harder for her to find a job.Some thought she will take their men, and some thought she will destroy their business by causing fights among other workers and the clients.

Her savings weren't enough for them to survive on, so she reached out to her step sister Yolanda for help and she agreed to leave with them.But, she also had a daughter who was nine, Lyn.

Selli….I cant thank you enough for this Yolanda, once i get a job and earn some money, i will pay you back to leave your house right away.

Yolanda….Not necessary, your gonna help me out here since am always busy with work.I want you to do all the house work every day in return for your stay with your twins.

Selli….I will do it, am actually good at it.

Yolanda….As you should.

Yolanda was an office worker who worked as an accountant at one of NewYork's biggest banks.But she wasnt good news at all, she had a sharp tongue followed by her bossy ways.

Elle, Axel and Lyn went to school every day and Selli stayed at home to do as she was told by Yolanda.After school, Selli taught Elle fashion designing since it was her dream from the start, though it was all shuttered at some point.

Elle loved it alot and her mum wanted her to make her proud by fulfilling a dream she failed at.At the age of eighteen, the twins were the true definition of perfection, they had perfect features, a Russian look with a little mix of American, the perfect combo.

They grew up blonde, with blue ocean eyes, sharp jawlines, tall, long necks and the perfect bodies.But all this time, their mum never said anything to them about their dad, theu had no idea who their dad was.

They went to college with Lyn as usual, but wherever they went to, they left room talking about them of how perfectly created they were.

Elle….Mum, we are back.

Selli….Oh, how was school my cuties?

Lyn….Am off to my room.

Lyn never liked them one bit because they were staying in their house and even got noticed wherever they went, unlike her who was no match for them.

Axel….Mum, am starving to death.

Selli….I got you honey.

Elle….Always eating non stop, you will gain weight and i promise to make fun of you.

Axel….Me? Gaining weight? In your dreams.Mum, give me a full plate.

Elle….Ugh!! So gross.

Axel….Your also a big eater, now what?

Elle….Dont even compare yourself to me.

Selli….Enough both of you, always picking fights.Here, full plates for my big eaters to grow faster.

Axel….Thanks mum, your the best.

Elle….Mum, i have a new design idea, cant wait to draw it for you to see, and please try not to judge negatively this time, please?

Selli….Am so proud of you honey, your gonna be the best fashion designer in all of NewYork.

Axel….NewYork is too big for her, dont flatter her, she will be the best designer only in her room.

Elle….You annoying brat.

Selli….Alright, eat up both of you, i have a headacche so i dont want to hear your nonsense today.

Axel….Whatever mum, after here, am going to surf with my friends, i heard that the resort their is opening and today entrance and everything are all for free.Wanna come Elle?

Elle….Nah, i will pass.I have alot of designs to organize that i wanna show to the Columbia University, i really wanna get in.

Selli….Ofcourse you will, both of you.

After eating, Axel went to the beach nearby where the new resort had opened, he was good at surfing so he went with his surfing board and met his friends too, they had fun.

Elle stayed at home with Selli sorting out designs.

Friend….Dude, girls are staring at you again, man, we are tired of hanging out with you, its like we don't exist.

Axel….Knock it off guys.

Friend….But your mum….when will she come back at school?

Axel….She will come if the teacher calls her, and stop talking about her in that manner, she is my mum dude.

Friend….Come on, its just a simple crush cause you dont want us to have your sister either.

Axel….Leave them alone, will ya?

Friend….Chill dude.

They talked for awhile and Axel noticed a pretty girl who was also staring at him, they kept sneakingly looking at eachother, until his friends noticed.

Friend….Dude, that is girl is checking you out, and you seem to do the same, just go for it.

Axel….What? Am…not….

Friend….Dont be shy, she is pretty and someone bolder will get to her before you, many hot dudes are here.

Axel….Ugh! Just to be clear, am just going to get a drink, not for the girl.

Friend….Hahaha, his shy now….

He stood up from his seat and headed to the counter where the girl was sitting with other people around, when girls saw him there, they rushed to talk to him as it was hard to approach him with his friends.

Girl….Hi there hottie! Wanna go check out the no lights side of this resort?

Axel….Nah, am good.

Zara….His with me, back off.

They left.

Zara….Hi, am Zara by the way.

Axel….Am Axel.

Zara….Thats a fit name for you, its sexy and hot.

Axel….Huh?

Zara….Am kinda wasted right now so note this, whatever i say or do, its not actually me doing it cause i will surely forget about it by morning.
