Proverbs 20:19 “He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets, therefore do not associate with gossip.”*****NatalieAt the table, Daddy did an orientation because of the incident that happened to me yesterday. I can understand him because of our situation in life and business. It is impossible to know the intentions of the people around us. "Who are our enemies, Daddy?" It came out of my mouth spontaneously that I didn't even think to say.

I have a hunch who it is but I don't want to think and say. Maybe I can just observe it myself.After we had breakfast, Daddy and I used a car. When I got out of the car gate, my eyes saw John Dave. Suddenly, my chest pounded with excitement when I saw his sweet smile.Daddy stopped driving and they talked for a while. I waved to him saying goodbye to Daddy. I moved closer to him but also smi

It does not dishonor others,it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.*****NatalieI'm sitting on the long sofa here in my room while watching a movie. Mommy's cat Chessy was on my lap. I caressed it's back up and down.Suddenly, the two employees I talked to earlier entered my mind. I smiled at the scene I saw on both of their faces. Fear and anxiety were depicted on their faces. They thought maybe it seemed I was going to eat people. Anyway, they apologized and I forgave them.They promised not to do it again and I believe them. If they can't do it, that's on them. They are grown up and know that it is wrong to gossip about anyone.John Dave entered my mind.

Natalie's POV They say, "the poor are just fort the poor and if you are rich you are only for your fellow rich," that’s what I always hear from my classmates and socialite friends. Well, I'm one of them. In a private school, we study and almost all of our gang are children of the rich. We have our vehicles and are updated on gadgets. For me, it's easy to ask my parents for money as long as I keep my grades high. We love to chat with those of my friends in bars and restos with live bands. Also goes to parties and anything that is about body needs. I'm Natalie. Sexy, white, and beautiful. I like to wear short shorts and tops that show my navel. Men are fascinated by my beauty. It's Monday and I'm going to school early. I have someone to pick me up today. His car is currently in our garage. I got out of our house and headed to the garage where my boyfriend's car was parked.

Natalie's POVThe days passed, and I don't see the scrap man anymore pushing his cart.It's Monday but I'm not feeling good going to school so I just stayed at home.It's afternoon I thought about going to the mall. At the exit of my car in the subdivision, I saw a man and I thought he was the scrap man but he doesn't seem to be. He was dressed and only now can I see that he is like that and carrying a big bag.I just skipped it and when I looked again in the side mirror of my car, I saw his face.

Natalie's POVA few more months passed, and I no longer got involved in the gimmicks of my friends. I always explain to them. Maybe that's how I lost my appetite for my social life because of my experience with Jeff.Because of that wine, I gave up the thing I am taking care of that should only be the man I love and love me.

"Best huh, you've become studious now," Jasmine said while we were in the cafeteria of the university we studied at.

Some of the students were silent, while two of our friends listened to what we had to say."Best, we're going to change too. Let's imitate Natalie," Rhea said along with their captiv
