Anna - short history
She was tired of feeling invisible in class, at least the baking teacher didn't seem to ignore her, Anna's freshly baked rolls were finger licking, she was so creative about it, about fifteen minutes before the end of the class all the students in that subject placed their rolls on the properly decorated table for a final display to the general public, and they praised those rolls and as soon as they heard about their author they left without saying anything else, it was a curse Anna constantly thought, her father was a failure who never got the position he deserved in his job, her mother studied a university career and never got a rewarding job.
Anna claimed that her destiny was marked since she was born, her inheritance had defined it, poor Anna always walked with her head down and without friends, that day in math class she had a doubt and waited for everyone to leave to talk to the teacher, this guy instead of helping her said that it was not worth trying so hard when she knew perfectly well that she would never be able to be someone important, he left, without thinking that he had hurt that girl deeply.
Anna's home was not well, her parents suffered from severe depression, there was little communication and little show of affection, even though she was an only child they did not treat her in a special way, sometimes they seemed not to know about her, they were indifferent almost always. When Anna looked at herself in the mirror she felt very bad, she was obese just like her parents and that made her angry and sad.

It was again Anna's favorite class, the baking class; she felt happy at that time, creating with her hands such delicious rolls was the only thing that made her smile; that day Anna looked different, it was something in her eyes, it reflected courage, she took some color essences to make some special rolls; usually the students worked in small teams but she was always alone concentrated on her creations. The class was over and as they always had to place the rolls for the enjoyment of those who passed by that corridor, the most striking looking ones were Anna's because of their great colors. Anna was standing there near the table, she had a strange smile and her look was really different, like the one who is doing some mischief.

The next day, the news appears on the front page of the newspaper: "Twelve people die at the Entrepreneurs of the Future school from eating poisoned bread ... Nine students and three teachers..."
Thank you dear friends, any suggestion will be received with much affection
