She belongs to a very decent family and had a happy childhood. She was always the favourite child of the house. Her parents & siblings loved her a lot. The parents were very mild and gentle. She was favourite even amongst friends & relatives - got love and affection from everybody. She was intelligent and even got a scholarship for her studies. She is cautious, systematic and organized person. She had written down all the details very clearly and had not left any point of the history unanswered. She has planned to succeed and make it big in her career. On some tactful interrogation she revealed that someone less efficient was promoted instead of her and she is unable to digest this failure mentally.
