Dredd Julie Cash

My coworker, Kevin Walter, invited me to join a private messaging chat group of rich women. There are plenty of perks, such as the 300-dollar cash gift he claimed right in front of me. I joined the group out of curiosity and got to know a wealthy woman named Ms. White. After some time together, she invited me on a vacation to a famous tourist city near the country's border. Little did I know, I was close enough to being dragged into a dangerous area abroad to become a live organ donor.

"Hinire kita bilang streamer Alana! Hindi kasama duon ang paluhurin mo ako iyong harapan upang magmakaawang tanggapin mo ako pabalilk!"

Walang cards, cash at car na mga main essentials niya sa buhay. Buong akala niya ay makakahingi siya ng tulong sa nobyo ngunit ipinagtulakan at ipinagpalit siya nito. Nang malaman na wala ng kahit anong ari-arian ang mga Buenaventura. Idagdag pa na walang tumatanggap sa kanya bilang receptionist dahil mababa lang ang natapos niya. Nagbakasali siyang maging isang live streamer sa isang kilalang app. Unang araw pa lang niya ay naging mahirap na ang mga pagsubok sa pagiging baguhang live streamer. Pero may iilan sa kanyang mga supporter na labis siyang sinusuportahan. Ngunit akala ni Alana ay hanggang sa likod na lang siya ng cellphone mapapanuod ng kanyang mga supporter. Pero unang araw pa lang niya ay may nakapansin na agad sa angking kagandahan ni Alana. Anong mangyayari sa buhay ni Alana na akala niya ay walang patutunguhan? Ito na ba ang simula ng career niya gamit ang taglay na kagandahan? O ito ang simula ng karagdagang hirap na tatahakin niya sa kanyang buhay?

My life is terrible enough. My dad died robbing a jewelry store. My sister hates my guts. An enforcer shows up out of nowhere and tells us we owe a shit ton of money. My mom?
