Everything had been difficult, but I've always lived by my principles, to never give up no matter what. Today is promotion day, and I'm hoping to get a promotion at work today. But before that, I have to get to work first, and as usual I'm late again (she rushes out of the house and starts running. she gets into a public bus, few minutes later she arrives at work) Thank Goodness! I'm not so late.

Sherry: Sorry Boss! I promise it won't happen again.
Mr Nick: Yes! it won't happen ever again because you're fired.
Sherry: What?.....(to the audience) And that's it, the so called promotion day because my day of being fired...Now I'm outside the streets just hovering around, I can't possibly go home now, because mom will know, and once she does, her heartache will act up again. She was so happy when I got this job, and she'll die of shock if I tell her I've been fired...so there's just one thing left to do now. (she brings out her phone and calls someone)

AT SUNSHINE HIGH SCHOOL
Terry: Sister! Are you still mad at me?
Sherry: Why wouldn't I be, who told you to go fight with that kid? did you forget how you got into this school, it was a case of charity. you got her through a scholarship, and you should be grateful that you were able to attend such a prestigious school. why are you trying to throw it away?
Terry: Sister! I didn't want to fight with him, but he pushed me, he said my family and I are paupers, he even went ahead to see that nobody is going to marry you because of our bad luck he said you will never get a good man and we'll forever be poor.
Sherry: Still you shouldn't have fought with him. Terry! in the world of elites, we mean nothing. so don't always try to fight with those who abuse us.
Terry: But we don't deserve to be treated this poorly. It's not our fault that we're poor.
Sherry: Still! don't get into trouble because of what others say. If anything happens here, we have no one to support us wether you're right, or not you'll always be labeled as wrong, because you're not an elite. So stop it don't ever fight again.
Terry: Okay! I'll listen to you.
Sherry: Let's go home!
