Prologue
Nefertiti Abebe is an African girl, living in Magwe, Southern Sudan, with her older brother, Berko, her Mother, Susanne, and her father Faraji who unfortunately passed while serving in the Sudanese Navy. To assure that Nefertiti has a happy life, her uncle pretends to be her biological father without Nefertiti knowing. The only people that know of this is Susanne, her Uncle Andre (who is pretending to be her father), and her brother Berko who was mature enough to realize that his father had kicked the bucket and that his uncle is not his father.
Her mother was born and raised in Wales, United Kingdom. She met Faraji on Facebook and fell in love with him, which is why she moved to Southern Sudan to be with him. She has bright, blue eyes that are easily genetically passed down. Faraji is from Southern Sudan, Africa, so he has the naturally dark skin and dark, poofy, short hair. Miraculously, she inherited her mother’s blue eyes and the rest of her father’s Sudanese features. Because of her exotic appearance, she was praised by her townspeople, who thought that she was some sort of angel sent down from the Gods.

I wake up at 7 a.m. sharp, as usual. I’d prefer to sleep in until, I don’t know, at least 9:00? That would be a dream come true.
“Nefertiti!” My mother calls, “Time for breakfast!”
I groan, knowing that “breakfast” is actually just an organic kale, mud, smoothie, and a bowl of roasted crickets. I get out of bed
