"Mama" cried the little bean as his mother called him. " Mama, I'm hungry. I haven't eaten anything since the morning. Mama have you brought some food?" As Brookelle looked down at her five year old son's innocent face tears started to fill her eyes. "I do have some food for you" she said while forcing a smile on her face. She saw her son was in pain because of her. She quickly served his food and went to change her clothes. She had not eaten a single morsel in the past two days.Naturally she was quite tired after the whole day of work so she headed to the bedroom. As soon as her body touched the soft white mattress her phone started to ring. "Hello"
"Hello it's Miss Sanga"
"Yes mistress? Any problem?
"No. I just called to check on you. You fainted Brookelle. Are you doing well now?"
"Mistress I am absolutely fine. It is just maybe stress. Don't worry. I'm fine."
" If you are sure Brookelle. Don't overwork yourself. I know you need money but keep a track of your health."
" I'll Mistress"
"Good.See you tomorrow. Goodnight."
"Sure mistress. Goodnight. "
As she is heard the line being cut she wondered how she had called to check on her several times before it. Miss Sanga was a really kind heart person. When she had just arrived at the company she had no money to rent a house or even a shelter, Miss Sanga was the one who help her out by providing a home. Everytime when she had a money shortage or some debt, Miss Sanga would help her out. Even though Brookelle would want to return the money to her she refused to take a single cent from her.
In no time was the sunshine peeking through the window and the light summer breeze flowing throughout the room. The little birds chirped their melody awakening the 'Sleeping Beauty'.
"Another day of hardwork"She mumbled beneath her breath.
She got up from her bed and got dressed. She was wearing a a old black dress she had bought during her mother's funeral 8 years ago. Being poor she didn't have many clothes. She hardly owned two dresses and a pair of faded jeans. She got her little bean dressed up for school and gave him breakfast. As she had no more food left at home she decided to skip breakfast even though she had not eaten anything for the past 2 days. As she had a staff fest today she would be able to eat as much as she wanted. A staff fest was an event where the the company would welcome a new member most often a new team leader or someone very important.
She dragged the little bean out of the house and send him of to school on the school bus. As soon as the school bus disappeared she quickly locked her house and rushed to the company as she had to be on time.
7:55am. It was 7:55 on the watch.
"Sh*t, Crap I'm so late. I'm screwed. Noooo"
She ran across the street without looking anywhere. She did not notice that a car was coming towards her way. The car was at crazy high speed. Even though the car horned at her she couldn't hear a thing.If she was late then she would be immediately fired from the job and would not get a second chance.After a while she realized that something was rushing towards her. The moment she turned her head to check-
"BAM!!!! " A loud sound could be heard.
