Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Stripped of her medical credentials and forced to return to school, Lena felt a profound sense of misery. She slumped on the living room couch, reaching for her phone to call her big brother Dorian. "Dorian, when are you heading back? Without you, I'm like a fish out of water in this house."

"Are Mom and Dad giving you a hard time?" came Dorian's deep, indulgent voice from the other end.

Lena huffed. Her voice was brimming with grievance. "Mom and Dad are all about my sisters now. She's the golden girl, and I'm... just the runner-up. What if they kick me out? Dorian, I'm freaking out over here."

"Lena, what are you afraid of? You're the little sister I grew up with. Who's gonna throw you out? As long as I'm around, no one's gonna mess with you, not even our parents. I'll be back in a few days, and I'll bring you a present. What's on your wishlist?"

Her mood instantly lifted. Lena blurted out, "Dorian, my sister has these gorgeous gemstone necklaces, but I don't have any..."

"I'll get you one." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

A wave of relief washed over Lena. "Thank you, Dorian. You're always the best to me."
