This time, she won’t just love him at the end. She’ll love him from the very beginning.

Watch me, at least you go soon marry oh." "I don't need to stand here for that,YouTube is a thing now, remember?" Mama dropped the wooden spoon with a clatter. "Ehn? So YouTube will teach you how to tell when egusi don dey burn?" Favour smirked and tapped her phone. "There's an app for that."

In a world full of noise, she was silent Not because she didn’t have a voice—but because no one ever listened The walls of her home were thin. Too thin to block out the screaming matches, the slammed doors, the shattered glass Too thin to protect a girl who’d learned to disappear between the pages of fiction When reality hurt too much, she escaped—not into sleep, but into stories She was the girl who sat alone at lunch. The one whose classmates forgot to invite She’d mastered the art of pretending not to care Pretending she liked it that way But deep inside, buried under layers of silence and solitude, she wanted something more Not fame. Not love. Just warmth. Laughter. A hand to hold But life didn’t hand her any of that. It gave her cracked phone screens, fake friendships, and a family that fought more than they spoke So she clung to the only thing that made sense— A book •The Princess Who Lived Twice• She had read it five times. Maybe more She knew every line, every twist. A simple story of a modern girl, reborn as royalty in a fantasy world. But to her, it was more than fiction—it was hope. Escape. Magic That night, the fighting downstairs got worse. The yelling turned into crashing She curled up beneath her blanket, opened the worn pages of the book, and read until her eyes blurred. She didn’t remember falling asleep. But when she opened her eyes, the world had changed Silk sheets. Blue curtains embroidered with silver stars A scent of lavender in the air. And a woman, trembling, crying as she whispered "My princess... she’s finally awake." And in that moment, the girl knew She Had Been Reincarnated
