Striving for Food

it was now a beautiful and bright morning,the whole city of Los Angeles was cool.

The sounds of different car horns were heard and also the sounds of the different footsteps was heard.

Amelia stood up from her old wooden bed and walk towards the wardrobe to wear her clothes.She was stark naked and that was because she didn't have a cloth she would use to sleep.

Yeah,she has only a cloth which she wear everyday and wash everyday and that's why she slept naked everyday of her life.

"What would eat this morning?"She asked herself and began to think on what she was going to eat.

*I just hope there are garbage in the incinerator,so that I could eat them..since that's what I eat every morning..but I'm just tired of every single thing*She thought in her mind and began to cry.

The tears were coming freely from her eyes and they rolled down her cheeks.She took a rag next to her and wiped the tears.

The rag was damn dirty but she had no choice but to use it to wipe the tears away from her eyes.

She stood up and went to the backyard of her old apartment.

The backyard is where she is always takes her daily bath,she doesn't care if she is being seen by people,but sometimes she feels ashamed though.

She got to the backyard and then began to pour the waters she had carried on her body.

"Hey,come take a look at her"She heard someone said,she turned back but couldn't see anyone.

But at a certain time she caught them looking at her, but what could she do?, when she can't defend herself.

She ignored them and rounded up.her bath before entering her apartment..

She walked to the wardrobe and wore her clothes,,she wants to look more beautiful so she took a powder which she saw at the incinerator and then took a little from it using her hands,and she rubbed it on her face

*I guess I'm beautiful this way*She thought and smiled despite the fact she know she isn't beautiful.

She walked out of the apartment and she began to have stomach ache.

"Not again",She muttered and held her stomach.

She kept holding it until she got to the incinerator which was kept in a specific place so that people could easily pour their garbage.

She began to look for search the garbage in a way she could easily see good things to eat.

Luckily for her she saw a loaf of bread which hasn't been eaten.it was protected and covered with a nylon.

Amelia picked it and began to eat it,she didn't care if anyone was looking or staring at her.

She consumed the whole bread and continued to search for another.
