Maria Lee Simson is a second-generation citizen of this country. Her parents left their war-torn land as refugees and came here to build a life for themselves and their children.
Maria was the youngest of their children. Growing up, Maria was a shy girl.
She never hung out with boys or talked to them. It's not that she didn't want to, but she was just too shy. She only had girl friends, and she was okay with it. That was the life she knew.
Her parents preferred the same as well. They didn't want their daughter tainted by this country's lack of traditions, so they made sure to be strict with her. As Maria grew up, she had a glow up. She started getting attention from boys, and her shy, reserved nature only made her more desirable in their eyes.
But like always, Maria was too shy to talk to them. Even when guys came over to talk, she would freeze.
Many guys tried, but none were lucky. Maria would reject them in fear of her parents. But her beauty was hard to resist.
