Ramona wheeled her suitcase out of the house at night, and walked to the end of the estate.

She left the estate, and brought out her phone which had been broken by Harry last month.

Ramona searched for nearby motels online, and found one. She trekked to the motel since she's lucky that the motel is not far from FERAN estate.

Later, she arrived at the hotel, and went in as she approached the receptionist who welcomed her warmly.

"How much is for night?"

"Dex room, 50 dollars, classic room 200 dollars, exclusive room, 500 dollars" The receptionist stated, and Ramona's eyes widened in surprise.

"I thought it's 20 dollars, I googled it before coming here, and I was told it's 20 dollars, based on my research " Ramona said, and the receptionist smiled at her.

"Price changes everyday "

Ramona brought out her phone as she checked her account balance, and saw exactly 50 dollars. She intended to use 20 dollars to book a room tonight then use the remaining 30 dollars for breakfast tomorrow but now her plans are ruined.

She needs to get a job immediately, and start working so she doesn't die out of hunger.

Ramona paid for a room for tonight, 50 dollars and the receptionist showed her the way to the room.

She was given a key, and went in immediately. She locked the door behind, and pushed her suitcase to the bedside as she fell on the bed.

Ramona shut her eyes, and began to reminisce over her life. Her five years marriage is now in vain with nothing to hold onto, no alimony, and no kids for him.

She was still in her thoughts when sleep came knocking on her door and she opened almost immediately.

The next morning, Ramona woke up, she bath and cleaned herself as she settled herself for a black jeans and a hoodie then a tattered sneakers before checking out of the motel room, dragging her suitcase begin her.

Ramona left the motel, and began to wander on the street as of Avenue before moving to a street far from FERAN estate which is Chevron street.

She got there with her feet, weak and hungry. She saw a post sign in front of a restaurant and went there immediately.

One of the waitress welcomed her warmly, and Ramona never waste time to express the reasons why she's at the restaurant.

The waitress at the restaurant gave her an irritated look first before referring her to the manager.

Ramona saw the manager, and greeted him almost immediately.

"Good morning," She greeted.

"Morning, why do you want to see me?"

"I want to apply for the job of a waitress here" She spoke, and the manager looked at he from head to toe with a rejected look on his face.

"Don't judge me by my dressing, and please help me, I need this job badly" Ramona pleaded.

"Slayer, see me in my office right now l" Ramona heard an unfamiliar voice as she saw an expensive lady walking inside an office.

The manager's office is like a post of secretary.

Slayer stood up immediately, and went inside the office. Ramona glanced around as she prayed silently to get the job.

The manager came back, and Ramona stood up.

"Sir," 

"You are employed. Only God knows what kind of luck you have" Slayer mumbled, and she heard him.

"It's an ill luck" She muttered.

Ramona joined the rest of the waitress as she was told where to keep her suitcase. She began to work, and the waitress never time to show out their dissatisfaction towards her.

"No, bitch, only goodness why the boss will employ a tattered girl to be a waitress in this classy restaurant. I doubt if you badge a certificate talkless of a degree" Rita, one of the waitress stated.

Ramona just stood behind the cook who prepared the meal before placing in a tray then gave it to Ramona.

She turned around, and was leaving when she almost fell but controlled her body as the workers plan failed.

No one like her here at all.

Ramona wonders how someone could hate her just like that without getting to know her more.

She went to serve the customer and till the day runs out, the waitresses in the restaurant tried to sabotage her while the waiters just appreciated her beauty that was covered with tatterednes.

At night, when the restaurant close, Ramona followed other waitress acting as if she has a home whereas she has none. Earlier today, while working she has plan to sleep in the restaurant when everyone is gone.

As soon as the waitresses she followed took a cab, Ramona turned around with her suitcase and went back to the restaurant. She stole the key to the restaurant from the manager, she never intends to steal she has to.

She unlocked the restaurant door, and was about to go in when a voice stopped her.

Ramona voice started beating fast like a party voice.

"Who are you??" That voice, she could remember it clearly even tho she heard the voice once for a short moment.

Ramona turned around to see the owner of the restaurant, the expensive lady.

Belle Sinclair just stared at Ramona. She nudge at her follow her inside her car with her suitcase after seeing her tattered clothes.

Ramona locked the door, and followed Belle who drove to a vacation home.

Ramona wondered why the boss brought her to a vacation home. She followed Belle inside the house who told her to clean herself.

Ramona did and by the time she got the living room, she met food waiting for her. Belle made her eat to her satisfaction before questioning her.

"Are you trying to steal from my restaurant?"

Ramona nodded negatively and went on her knees as she began to explain her failed marriage and what made her break inside the restaurant.

"I swear, I'm not kind of woman" Ramona swore, and was at the verge of tears.

Belle saw the sincerity in her eyes and nodded.

"Go and sleep, we will talk better tomorrow" 

Ramona went inside and slept off immediately at the sight of a big soft bed.

The next morning, the ray of sun woke Ramona. She hastily stood up to clean the house before her boss wake up when she suddenly halt at the sight o

f an unfamiliar figure in the living room seated as if he owns the house.

"Please, who are you??, a thief??"
