Chapter 1 - Problems

It all began when I was born to my mother who was just 21 years. My mom had to strive to cater for me, since her boyfriend had run away after finding out she was pregnant. This made my mom moved to the city with my grandmother to buy an apartment with the little money she had, whiles she looked for a job.

As she walked through the streets of Jordan looking for a job, she came across a coffee shop with the inscription "LINA'S COFFEE SHOP" written boldly at the top. It had a poster on its transparent door and it read, "WAITRESS NEEDED URGENTLY", and since she was looking for a job, she entered into the coffee shop and met a thin lady with long legs and a long wavy brown hair behind the counter, she greeted her and asked if a waitress is still needed and she said yes and stretched her hands in the direction of the manager's office.

She knocked the door and was welcomed by a group of people who asked her a lot questions about her and her family and she replied to all their questions saying

"My name is Kathryn Alexader and I'm 21yrs, I come from a very poor family that live at Twain Village but I'm her to find a job and cater for myself and my little girl".

The boss was very touched by her story and gave her the job even though she was not up to the standards of the job. She asked her to go to the lady that directed her here and she will tell her what to do.

She thanked her and went to see the lady, who gave her a package which contained her work attire and told her to report to work at 9:00am tomorrow. She thanked the lady and walked out with a smile on her face.

The next morning, she took a quick shower and dressed in a white blouse with orange strips in it and short orange skater skirt which was given to her by the lady. She brushed her long black hair and tied it into a neat ponytail. She kissed me and her mom on the cheeks and left to work. In no time she had reached the coffee shop.

She took a deep breath and walked in to the shop her surprised she was welcomed by her new colleagues at work.

She smiled and thanked all of them for their effort made to welcome her. Miss Lina then approaches her and told her to do her best to work hard and always be punctual.

She was given a white apron to wear.

She puts on the apron and walks to a customer who had just entered the coffee shop. She served the customer with a cup of coffee with cream and sugar added, as he ordered

She and her colleagues continued with their work as more customers entered the shop at the close of her working hours, she folded her apron and put it in one of the shelves next to the counter.

When she got home her mom had already prepared dinner for her and had feed me and put me to bed. Her mom then left to take a shower and rest. Phoebe ate her dinner and clean the dishes. After, she was done with the dishes, went into her bedroom and kissed me on the cheeks as I was fast asleep.

She sat on her bed and watched the night sky through the window and told her self "I will certainly do my best
