"Oh no! That's not my daughter!" a mother was horrified after seeing her newborn baby for the first time. She couldn't believe that her daughter was born with pale skin and white hair. She looks nothing like me, the woman thought.

Wearing the latest clothes and walking on ramps in fashion shows was something Meghan loved. She was one of the best models in town, and most designers wanted her to be their showstopper.

Because of her beauty and the fame she had earned, most men around her wished to be her boyfriend. Whenever Meghan talked to a man, she could tell by his face whether he was her well-wisher or just wanted to have a casual fling.

Only one man in her social circle loved her sincerely: Jeff. When Meghan became friends with him two years ago, she thought he was like the others. She expected to lose contact with him once she moved to another city, but Jeff never left her.

He was always there when she needed a shoulder to cry on after a breakup. He would send her flowers and chocolates when she had a bad day at work. Jeff was her faithful friend, who she could count on during her bad days.

Jeff always stood by her because he considered Meghan more than a friend. He had feelings for her but didn't dare to confess them because he feared doing so might ruin their friendship.

However, Meghan knew he liked her, and she took advantage of his feelings by asking him for favors. Since Jeff was in love with her, he never said no to her wishes and always did what she asked him to do.

"You can always count on me, Meghan," he would tell her whenever she asked him to do something.

Meghan dated many men during her modeling career, but none wanted to marry her. Some would ask her to quit modeling, while others would say they weren't looking for a serious relationship.

"Oh my God! That's not my baby!" Meghan said when she looked at her newborn daughter for the first time.

Soon, Meghan got fed up with the drama that goes with a modeling career because she wanted to get married and have kids. Whenever she thought of tying the knot, she could only think of one name: Jeff. Meghan wasn't truly in love with him, but thought she could use him to have a family. He isn't that bad, after all, she would often tell herself.

One day, Meghan was at a restaurant with Jeff when she proposed marriage to him. "Jeff, I know you fell in love with me the first day we met, and I think you are a nice guy," she told him.

Jeff was shocked when he learned Meghan wanted to marry him because he always thought she was out of her league.

Without thinking twice, he agreed to marry her, unaware he would regret his decision a few years later.

A year after their marriage, Meghan fell pregnant and was over the moon because having a family was one of her goals. She had taken a break from modeling after marrying Jeff, so she could have babies and look after them.

Throughout her pregnancy, Meghan kept thinking about her baby, and when she learned it was a girl, she wished her daughter would inherit good looks from her.

"I think she's going to have beautiful eyes like you," Jeff told her.

"Yes, I wish she looks exactly like me!" Meghan replied, unaware that her daughter wouldn't resemble her.

"Oh my God! That's not my baby!" Meghan said when she looked at her newborn daughter for the first time.

"Are you holding someone else's daughter, Jeff?"

"No, Meghan," Jeff chuckled. "This is our baby. Our little princess, Alice."

Meghan was shocked after giving birth because her baby didn't look like her. Instead, the little girl had pale skin and white eyelashes. The doctors told Meghan her daughter had albinism.

"There's nothing to worry about, Meghan. Alice is like other children, and she has no health problems," the doctor assured Meghan after seeing her cry.

"It's okay, honey," Jeff held her hand, trying to calm her down.

"But this is not what I had imagined!" Meghan cried and covered her face with her hands.

After returning from the hospital, Meghan stayed home for a few weeks before going to the park with her baby one day. Over there, she noticed that other parents frowned when they looked at Alice.

Moreover, when little kids came close to Meghan to see her baby, they gasped and ran away after looking at Alice's white hair and pale skin.

"Mommy, why do the other kids laugh at me?" Alice would ask.

Later that day, Meghan told Jeff what happened at the park. "Everyone looked at her like she's an alien, Jeff. I feel so hurt!" Meghan shook her head.

"Oh, honey. You have to ignore what other people say about our girl," Jeff said. "You shouldn't let their comments hurt you."

A few years later, Alice started going to school. Over there, other children would make faces at her and touch her skin to see why she looked so different.

"Mommy, why do the other kids laugh at me?" Alice would ask. "Is it because I have white hair?"

Instead of boosting her daughter's confidence, Meghan would tell her not to ask such questions. Although Meghan raised Alice to the best of her abilities, she didn't think her daughter was good-looking. Whenever Alice would talk about her skin or hair, Meghan would change the topic or tell her to stay quiet.

Once Alice grew up, Meghan decided to resume her modeling career. She felt her life wasn't going as planned and thought keeping herself busy with fashion walks would help her feel better.

Meanwhile, Alice's teachers would often invite Meghan and Jeff to various events at school, but Meghan always asked her husband to attend them alone.

"I'm busy with work, Jeff," she would lie to him.

Meghan didn't want to be seen with her daughter in public because she thought that would tarnish her image. She wanted to regain her position as the top model in town and believed the fashion industry fraternity wouldn't hire her if they learned Meghan had an albino daughter.

Since Meghan refused to go out with her daughter and never tried to make her feel beautiful, Alice's confidence shattered with time, and she felt insecure about her looks. Meanwhile, Jeff always told Alice she was beautiful, but watching her mother's behavior made the little girl feel bad about herself.

While modeling in various fashion shows, Meghan met a man who made her feel very special. Soon, he confessed his love for her and asked her to run away with him.

"I can't leave my 10-year-old daughter," she would tell him.

"Come on! It's not like you love her," he would reply.

It was brutal, but it was undeniable. It had been years, but Meghan still felt a deep disconnect with her child, and she couldn't feign it anymore. Soon, Meghan decided to escape to another city with her boyfriend.

One night, she left her house and never returned. Alice's world turned upside down when she learned her mother had abandoned her. She thought Meghan left her because of her looks and felt even more insecure.

"Daddy, did Mommy leave us because I am ugly?" Alice asked Jeff.

"Oh no, darling! Don't ever say that word again. You're the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, Alice," Jeff hugged his daughter and promised himself he would train her to become a confident girl.

17 years later...

I never expected my life would change so much, Meghan thought as she sipped her coffee in her studio apartment alone. Her boyfriend cheated on her soon after she began living with him, but she still had her career to support her financially.

"This looks like an address," Meghan said before she read the message Alice had written for her.

However, a few years later, Meghan's beauty began to fade after wrinkles appeared on her face and the flesh on her body sagged. She lost charm as she grew older, and soon, no designer wanted to work with her. Models much more beautiful than Meghan had joined the industry, and all the designers wanted to work with those new faces.

Meghan felt lonely because she had no family or friends to spend her time with. She mostly stayed in her house and tried to save her money because she didn't have a source of income.

One day, she stepped out of her house to check her mail when an envelope caught her attention. "Alice?" she said. The envelope in her hand was from her albino daughter, who she had abandoned years ago.

Meghan quickly opened the envelope and pulled out a paper from it. "This looks like an address," Meghan said before she read the message Alice had written for her.

After seventeen years of no contact, Alice had invited her mother to a fashion show, but Meghan had no idea why Alice wanted her to attend it. However, she still went there, hoping to get a chance to talk to Alice.

The next day, Meghan wore her best outfit and went to the address mentioned in the mail Alice sent her. Soon, the fashion show started, and Meghan watched the models walk on the ramp wearing luxury brands.

This looks like a very expensive show, Meghan thought. Since she had worked in the fashion industry for years, she knew brands paid models thousands of dollars per day to walk on the ramp during such shows. I wish I was still working, she thought.

"Leave my hand," Alice pulled her hand away from her mother and rolled her eyes.

At the end of the show, a beautiful model wearing a sparkling red gown walked onto the ramp while the audience cheered for her. When Meghan looked at the model's face, she was shocked. "Alice?" she said, but no one heard her voice because of the cheers.

After the show ended, Meghan went backstage and met Alice. "Hi, Alice! I can't believe this is you," Meghan hugged her daughter. "You look so beautiful, and I loved your walk!"

"Thank you!" Alice smiled.

"I'm so sorry for everything that happened when you were a child, Alice. I hope you have forgotten everything," Meghan held her daughter's hand. "I just can't believe you have become such a beauti―"

"Leave my hand," Alice pulled her hand away from her mother and rolled her eyes.

"What happened, honey?" Meghan looked at everyone in the room. "Everyone's watching us."

"Do you know why I invited you here today?" Alice asked sternly.

"Because my daughter wanted to spend a day with me, right?"

Alice faked a laugh and said, "I'd never do that! Do you think I still want to spend time with you after watching you abandon us?"

"I said I'm sorry, Alice," Meghan looked at the ground.

"You're sorry? Really? You have no idea what happened after you left me!"

Alice walked out of the building while Meghan followed her. "Hey, honey! Please stop. Listen to me," Meghan cried.

"I don't want to listen to anything, Meghan," Alice said.

"Just accept my apology, Alice. Please," Meghan begged her daughter.

"You know what, Mom?" Alice said. "Actually, I should thank you for leaving me when I was ten. I know what you did made me angry, but my resentment toward you motivated me to prove you wrong."

"What do you mean?"

"You always felt I was ugly and never wanted to go out with me because you felt embarrassed of my pale skin and white hair. When you left me, I felt angry and blamed myself. I thought you left me because I was not beautiful."

"I'm sorry, Alice," Meghan shook her head.

"No, Meghan. Thank you for leaving me because that motivated me to become a model and prove you wrong," Alice smiled. "You told me I look beautiful, and that's all I wanted to hear from you. That's why I invited you to the show."

Alice walked back inside the building and told Meghan to leave. She told her mother she never wanted to see her again and said she and Jeff were better off without her.
