Chapter 1 - 1. In Love

There's a man called Leo Ramirez; He is a merchant who deals with buying and selling of used clothes. He's around his early fifties and lives in Cebu.

He got married to Suzan Roberto for almost five years without a child.

Suzan later got pregnant after five years of being childless and due to the illness she had when she was young, the pregnancy came with complications.

She died while giving birth to their only daughter, Ella. Mr Ramirez transferred all the love and affection he had for his late wife to their only daughter after she passed away.

Ella focuses on her studies and works hard on her grades so that she can have the best certificate and work in LAVIDA-S company owned by Mrs Davis, the governor's wife.

Ella Ramirez becomes really beautiful and charming when she turns 18 years old. She's about 5.25 ft tall with long brown hair, eyes color blue; and has a skinny body.

The phrase people commonly associate with her is; "She has the heart of gold" because that's what describes her personality.

On Saturday morning, Ella woke up happily and looks besides her but couldn't find her father on his bed.

"Oh he already travelled again"

Ella said while she steps outside their house and screamed saying " ho, ho, ho, ho, it's another brand new day ho, ho, my Prince Charming I love you".

Their neighbours were looking at her saying to themselves "what is wrong with her?" Ella noticed and felt ashamed then she quickly rushed inside.

she went straight to the bathroom and came out after five minutes. After she had taken her bath, Ella got prepared, carried her cross bag and heads to were she normally works every weekend at Mrs Toms house

Any time she saw Daniel Davis on advert poster she will make sure she kissed the poster and asked anyone passing at that moment, "Do we look good together?" people normally smiles at her question and snub it.

Daniel Davis was the model to his mother company LAVIDA-S. Ella has two friends Mary and Samantha both of them knew that Ella was madly in love with Daniel.

*Mrs Tom's House*

"Good morning ma'am I will be cleaning living room only today because am going out with my friends"

"Okay, I thought you will be staying long because I was thinking maybe I can help you read your prince charming mind and tells if he loves you the same way you love him; but since you are cleaning the living room only, you can do that and go" Mrs Toms said and turns back

"Ooh no! I will wait, where should I clean again?".

"Everywhere" And she smiles.

**********************************************

Mary and Samantha dressed like psychic and carried their bag, heading to cinema. On their way, they met Alfred.

Alfred stopped them and ask "Where are you two going?"

Mary replied "We are going to the cinema"

"And why is Ella not with you?"

Samantha "She went to work at Mrs Toms house"

"When will Ella stop going to Mrs Toms house? that woman is a psychic oooh"

Alfred looks at Mary and Samantha from head to toe and asked "Why are you guys dressed like this?"

"This is the best dress ever, If you don't like it, suit yourself". Mary replied

"Ooh, no, no,no, I'm not fighting with you two. I want to tell you guys something please"

Samathan "Make your words fast because we're going to the cinema"

"I'm in love with Ella, I love her so much, can you please talk to her for me?"

Mary moves closer to Alfred and said "No way! she's in love with someone else, she can never date someone like you. Her Prince Charming is coming back soon. Let go Samathan".

*The Cinema*

Mary and Samantha were ten minutes late for the movie they went for, both of them rushed in, very clumsy and sat on the available space people were looking at them as a psychopath.

"We have to watch and understand this movie so that we can explain to Ella since she can't make it here" Mary said.

At the end of the movie Mary and Samantha were heading out from the Cinema and they saw people rushing out screaming, both of them were scared. They both look at each other then screamed and rushed out also.

When they got out it was Governor's wife that arrived Mrs Hanna Davis the CEO of LAVIDA-S GROUP OF COMPANY.

She steps out from her car, and people were so excited to see her, then two journalists rushed to her and started asking her questions, she wanted to snub them but because of the crowd Mrs Davis compose herself.

"Ma'am can you tell us why you're here please?" One of the journalist asked

"I came to watch a movie" Mrs Davis replied

"Can you tell us the title of the movie you're here to watch?"

"Zombie Zone"

"Wow ma'am, that is a scaring movie" The other journalist said

"Yeah, I love scaring movies" Mrs Davis responded with a smile

Mary and Samantha looked at each other and screamed "We must watch that movie also" people looked at them with disgust, then turned their face back to Mrs Davis interview.

"We heard your son schools at abroad, and since he is the model of LAVIDA-S GROUP OF COMPANY, people are really curious of when he would be back. Can you please tell us when he will be back". The journalist asked with all seriousness.

Mrs Davis felt that question shouldn't be asked but she has no choice than to answer it.

"He will be back next month. So expect him soon. Please excuse me" Mrs Davis said and leaves immediately.

"Mrs Davis just said, her son would be back next month, who knows it could be on his birthday or any day, just expect him soon." The other journalist reported while facing the camera.

Mary screamed and sat on the floor, she started crying while saying "Oooh my dear Ella your prince charming is finally coming back home, you're going to see his handsome face after all this years".

"Mary, don't cry we should be happy for our dear Ella" Samantha said.

One man walked up to them and asked Samantha "What happened to your friend, why is she crying?"

"We're happy for our dear Ella" Mary replied as she continue to sob

"I don't understand what she is saying" the man said with a confused expression

"Ooh no mmmmh she is having stomach pain and no money to treat her" Samantha said while giving Mary signal.

"Ooh yeah am having stomach ache please help me" Crying seriously.

The man brought out his wallet, he gave them money and asked them to "take care". After he left Mary asked Samantha squeezing her face "Why did you lie? You know I was perfectly fine and was just acting up because I'm happy for Ella"

"You should be happy I was able to bring up that lie at that moment. Remember the movie Ella mother in-law is going to watch, we need money for ticket because we don't have any money; but with this we can go in there"

"Oooh my god, ooh my god, you are too good Samantha. I never thought of that. Let go, let go" Mary said pushing Samantha.

When they got in, both of them were chewing pop corn and didn't focus on the movie they were watching; but rather focuses on Mrs Davis.

"She is beautiful" Mary whispered to Samantha

"So beautiful" Samantha replied back

"I wished I can be like her"

Samantha suddenly looked at her and replied "But you can't"

"Hey you guys are disturbing" The person sitting beside them says annoyingly

"You should be happy you were allow to sit where human beings are sitting mmmmmh" Mary said

"Hey what did you say?"

"She was not talking to you" Samantha replied and smiles at that person, pitching Mary.

*Mrs Toms House*

Ella looks extremely tired while washing the dishes.

"Ella you're too slow. You only cleaned the living room, sweep the compound, washed and ironed the clothes, prepared my lunch, and ordinary dish washing, you're sweating profusely? you need to be fast"

"Alright ma'am, but have tried and I haven't eaten anything since morning"

"Are you complaining?"

"No ma'am"

After Ella washed all the dishes, she went into Mrs Toms room, and sit on the floor.

"Hey Ella you can't just come in here without my permission"

"Please help me to read my prince charming mind now else I would just faint here, have tried please have some pity on me" Ella said this while she bow down her head.

"Okay! stand up and sit besides me" Mrs Toms said, brings out her reading card and asked Ella to "pick one"

Ella picked. After so many readings, Mrs Toms said "Your prince charming will never come back again and he has a girlfriend in abroad".

Ella screamed.

On her way back home walking so tired, she met Alfred.

"Hey Ella, you look unkempt today what happened?" Alfred asked as he looks her from head to toe

Ella started crying out seriously

"Ella talk to me. what happened? did someone die?"

"No" still crying

"You lost money?"

"No"

"Ooh what happened to Mr Leo?"

"My prince charming is not coming back again" Ella said this while crying

"Ooh that good, I mean not good, but sorry".

When Ella got home, her friends are already waiting for her at home.They both sight Ella and they rushed and hug her happily.

"Hey Ella! why are you crying?" Samantha asked

"My prince charming is not coming back again and he has a girlfriend overseas Mrs Toms told me"

"I told you to stop going to that woman. She is evil and also a liar, Your prince charming is coming back on his birthday. Your mother in-law told the Press today" Mary replies

"Where did you see her?"

"At the cinema, she was so beautiful and sexy" Samantha replies.

The three of them rushed inside Ella's room and checked her diary to confirm her prince charming birthday date, it was on July 5th.

Ella screamed and said happily "it's next month I can't wait, Oooh what should I do, what will I wear? my skin must be glowing on that day"

"We have to look for better work not Mrs Toms kind of work, so that we can support our dear friend. Don't worry Ella, I and Samantha will buy you a dress for that day"

"Ummh my dear friends, I love you so much" Three of them hug each other happily.
