No betrayal hurts more than that of a loved one. Tracy got her first job in JK Group Of Company as a secretary. She sometimes switched with her twin sister and let her go to work on her behalf just to make her jobless twin happy.

Unable to look at his face unlike before. The lovely sisters relationship smashed when Ken, the CEO started showing interest in Tracy. Daisy became jealous and revealed the most dangerous secret Tracy was hiding which smashed Tracy's relationship with Ken. They became cold strangers again. Ken ignored all Tracy's attempt to explain.

Chapter 1 Wake up``
"Wake up."
Tracy gave her twin sister a smack on her back.
"Daisy get up from there, you have been sleeping for hours.This is six in the morning and I have to go to work."
Tracy threw a pillow on her head.
"Whaaat!."
Daisy groaned and hugged the pillow her twin threw at her to her chest.She curled her leg like a baby inside the mother's womb, Pouting her mouth like a cartoon.She was really beautiful.She was slim and tall.Her face straight,her skin so smooth like a new born baby's.Her mouth full and pinkish.
Her lashes flapped together like a closed book.It really looked unreal, like it was fixed artificial eyelashes.The two dimples on her cheeks normally went deep when she talked or smiled.It couldn't be hidden.She really looked like a cute drawing.Standing beside her bedside was another description of the girl lying on the bed.It looked as if it was the same girl sleeping on the bed was also standing.
She pouted her mouth angrily and her dimples became deep.She stood glaring at her lazy sister.At twenty one she was this lazy.What would happen when years walk by.
Tracy just got a job as a secretary in KJ Group Of Company after fruitless attempt to get a job.She and her sister went for the interview but Daisy was rejected,the interviewer had complained that they were confusing her with their one person looks.She said it would be best if one works in the company . Tracy was really happy and desperate to change her family's status.She vowed to work really hard.The twins was all their mom lived for.Hailey their mother was diagnosed with a tumor in her brain. There was no money for the surgery which the doctor said was urgent.She was really happy that God came to her rescue by giving her a high paying job in one of the biggest company in the country.
Tracy wondered what she would do to her sister.
What a lazy skinny bird!
Tracy jumped onto her sister and started hitting her with a pillow.
"Get up from there you lazy thing."
Daisy screamed and struggled to push her sister away from her.
"Mooom!."
She screamed and kept struggling with Tracy.Both of them fell off from their mini bed to the floor.Tracy was really overpowering Daisy who couldn't stop screaming for help.
The door opened and Hailey controlled her wheelchair into the room.She stopped and shook her head.
Her two girls was at it again!
Daisy always lazy and Tracy not settling for nonsense.She was really proud of Tracy and also pitied her . The poor little girl has been the one caring for the family's expenses since she became sick . Hailey was now happy now that Tracy has gotten a good job, Daisy would continue with her fish business in the local market until she gets a job too.Hailey knew she had to do something to separate the two.
"Tracy leave your sister alone."She said and Tracy got off Daisy.Both stood up disheveled and breathing heavily like their just completed a long race.
"Seriously mom,are you supporting her."Tracy asked,her eyes wide open.
"Am not supporting anybody.Don't just beat her up like that, she's an adult for crying out loud."
Hailey said and Daisy nodded touching her hair in an "that's true "kind of way.Tracy mopped at her mom in surprise.
"Seriously!I have every right to correct her anytime she does something wrong,am older than her."
"Pardon."Hailey said straining her ears.
"I said that am older than her."
"With two minutes."Hailey corrected and Daisy laughed so hard that her tummy ached.
Haaha...ha ha!
Tracy gritted her teeth in anger.This wasn't the first time mom supported Daisy.She turned and glared at Daisy who pretended to be arranging her disheveled hair.
"Am not saying that your sister is right, Daisy you should be waking up on time.Remember what the Bible said about a good woman.Tracy please sweetheart Stop beating up your sister like this.Ok." Hailey looked at the two hoping that her words penetrated.
"I don't want to be late for work."
Tracy stomped her feet to the bathroom.
"We haven't prayed young lady."Hailey protested.
"I have,ask your fav daughter."She said and banged the bathroom door.
Hailey gave Daisy a warning look.
"Stop pissing your sister off."
"I was tired."Daisy whined.
"She was tired too."Hailey gave her a deep look and Daisy looked down pouting her mouth.
"Let's pray." Hailey said.
Tracy rushed out of the house after pecking her mom on the cheeks.She hurriedly walked down the street.She had to trek for a while before entering the commercial public bus because of money.
"Good luck my sweetie, remember to buy an ice cream for me when your first salary arrives."
An old man called old Tom leaving in her street joked.Tracy smiled and waved playfully at him.
"Suuure!."She said and gave him a thumb up.
"Fighting!."
The old man lifted his hands and held it together like a soldier.Tracy laughed.This was the way he always encouraged her when ever she was about to face a challenge.She remembered how the old man had joked that he would have loved to marry her.His wife died many years ago and his only son was off to the army.
"Fighting!!."
Tracy raised her own hands too and laughed.
"Bye."Tracy waved and old Tom nodded at her.She hurriedly ran towards the local market where she would bode a commercial bus.
Old Tom shook his head and continued sweeping his frontage.
"Good people always had the toughest luck."He thought.
Tracy was a kind of girl that could be defined as strong.She struggled with her mom to survive after her dad died in the army and the government wouldn't just pay his entitlement.He was a close friend of Tracy's dad.They were together in the army, defending their country side by side.
He died but old Tom was proud of his friend's twins.He had soldiers in his family even though they weren't in the army. The Little girl had struggled with her sister to go to the university.He sometimes felt pity for them and gave their mother part of the money his son who was in the army overseas sent him. The beautiful girls often came to help him clean up his house and cook for him sometimes.
Truth be told,old Tom was praying that his only son would come back and marry one of the girls.
He always adviced both to stay away from men until they're established.
"Men are scum.So many fakes out there."
In his heart,he said those things to make them single until his son returns home by the end of the year.
Hahaha!
Well planned!.
Tracy came down from the commercial bus and was hurrying into the company.She was almost late.
This was her first time at work, she didn't want to create a bad first time impression . She was searching for her phone in her hand bag when she bumped into a stranger.The stranger's mobile phone fell down but it didn't break.
"Am really sorry, please forgive me."She apologized and bent down to pick up the phone without even looking at stranger's face.She was really in a hurry to rush into the company before the boss arrived.She was the private secretary to the CEO.
Tracy picked up the phone and checked if it was broken.
Phew!
She sighed in relieve.
"Am so sorry sir."She apologized to the stranger who mopped at her in return.
