come downstairs I have a gift to you that I sent, finally arrived”- I said, expecting to see her reaction when she see me –“Ok, I’m going to the elevator, you know I hate surprises, what’s that? ”-“You’ll see, I need to hang up now, see ya.”- She barely knew that she would actually see me.
She finally came down, I was hidden behind of a wall, she was looking in the floor, expecting to find her gift, when I came out and screamed her name, she gave me a look and hugged me –“Trisha I missed you so much”- I said smiling and hugging her-“Also do me, But what are you doing here, what are these suitcases for?”- She said with a ruthless tone –“I came to stay here with you, sisters are made to be together, we are better when we are together, right?”- I said, fearing her response-“Come up, let’s go”. She helped me to carry my suitcases; it was a deep silence till we get in her place. I got there, it was really cozy, small, but ok, I sat on the sofa, after that she gave me a juice and sat by my side, I knew it wouldn’t be good news-“Kath, you wanna stay here with me, but there’s no space for the 3 of us.”-she said holding my hand-“Threeee!!! Are you pregnant?”- I said in disbelief-“No, Peter will stay with me, he asked me to have him, till he gets back in his feet, you know” –“What? You guys are dating now? Since when?”- I said moving my hands-“We are going to try, he will arrive in three days”-“Trisha, is this a joke? He just wants your help not your love, open up your eyes, you are going to trade me over him? ”- I said, while getting up –“I’m not trading you, never, you are my sister, I’m just showing you my point”- she said, looking deeply inside of my eyes-“Trisha, you don’t even know him, what are you doing? I have no place to stay I have no money”- “No problem, I give you the money my mom sent me last week, it will be enough to pay you passage back to South Dakota”- she said, looking around to find the money –“You know what? I don’t want your money, but one thing I’m going to tell you, be careful with this man that you are putting inside of your house, you barely know him and you are not my sister”- I said while I carried my suitcases out –“No, Kath, I’m sorry, try to understand me, I’m your sister, come back, I’ll give you money, wait”- I was waiting the elevator when she came with the money in her hand- “I DON’T WANT YOUR DAMN MONEY, leave me alone”- I went down and I cried in the lobby, I couldn’t believe she did that to me I knew I didn’t tell her I would come, but she just did it because of Peter, someone she knew like 1 year, I was thinking about going back, but I didn’t have money, my dad and Trisha told me to go back to South Dakota, maybe they are right, I should go back to where I belong , the worst decision of my life was coming here , no one could support me, I needed money, the only thing I could do was to sell my stuff to get enough money to finally go back to my state, Trisha didn’t stop sending me messages so I turned off my phone.
I was walking on the street with three suitcase, one of them had strep, so it was easy to carry, the two other ones I needed to carry by my two hands, so it was a struggle, I asked to a lady where I could find a pawn shop around, she told I would have to walk 4 blocks away, I was so tired of that suitcases, but I would sell the necklace my dad have given me when I turned 16.
I arrived there hopping to get some good money, I saw an African American woman standing in the store-“Good afternoon”- Good? Haha, well, my afternoon is not that good!-“Good afternoon “I replied back I showed her my necklace, she was inspecting it with that binoculars –“Two hundred”- she said- “Just that? I mean this is gold”-I said in disbelief –“I know, but this necklace is a little one”- I couldn’t argue, I needed money, I should just take it, but I would come back and buy it back-“That’s right”- I said, looking at my necklace, I was standing there and I realized she was fashion, well dressed and I had some channel clothes that Trisha’s mom gave me, it was from the last season, but I think she would like it, I was broke I needed money so I would do everything I could to get it –“I have some channel clothes, do you want to see it ?”-I said with a smirk- “No”-she said with a cold tone, well I didn’t mind I just unpacked some channel dresses I had –“Take a look, this is not false, showing the label to prove her”- she looked at me –“I know you will spent it in drugs”-“What? Drugs? I’m not addicted, look I’m just a wretched girl who came from South Dakota to stay in my best friend’s house, but I just found out she cannot have me, because she picked someone else to live with her that she doesn’t even know, now I have no money, no place to stay and three damn suit cases to carry to everywhere I go , I’m tired, I’m hungry, I’m all sweat, I upset my dad and my life is just messed up, I don’t know what to do ”-I said in tears, I didn’t realize that there were some costumers there, a woman approached me and told me she would buy one of my suitcase, she told me how much I would like , I said how much she could give me , she gave two hundred dollars. I felt empty, because I adored those clothes, but that one would be to pay my passage back to South Dakota, somehow I liked L.A, this woman also told me to stay in a motel called wilson, she told me it was cheap, but comf, I would like it .
So I called a cab and went there, I needed to go back to South Dakota, but I didn’t have a home there, because I rented my place, which it was the dumbest thing I’ve ever done, I needed to apologize with my dad and visit my mother, I was thinking about fixing all this mess, but how I could do it, cause I didn’t have a plan at all, causing me to panic and cry before sleep.

I woke up next morning feeling as bad as possible, I went to the restaurant to eat my breakfast and I thought about asking to the manager if there were any vacancy for waitress, I was concerned about going back to South Dakota, there were nothing for me back there, but my parents, I wanted to be successful in somewhere else. I was sitting while I was eating my pancake, I asked to Sylvia if there were any Job vacancy, she was the manager, but unfortunately there was nothing for me, I was frustrated, the situation was out of control and it was something that I caused, so I was blaming myself for everything, without noticing, a drop of tear streamed down my face, I quickly dried it.“Is this sit taken?”- A tall black light skinned guy asked, pointing to the seat that was in front of me –“No. It is not.”- I said while I saw him sitting. I thought to myself, why he is sitting the same table that I was at, it didn’t make any sense, after all he was good looking, brown eyes, perfect body, his hair was shaved, but he wasn’t bald, his look was intense like a knife piercing right into me, breaking my thoughts he started talking, I wasn’t in the mood to talk, but he looked nice–“Today is a beautiful day, even though we don’t take time to see how beautiful it is, because we are busy with college, work and our problems, but the sun is still there, the clouds are still there and the marvelous sea is also there, take a look outside people just walk, because they are busy, they rush everything. I mean we should enjoy our life, shouldn’t we?”- “Of course, we should”- I said looking outside, I didn’t know why he told me all those things, maybe he saw me crying and just wanted to make my day or he just wanted my number –“What’s stopping you to look to the beauty of this world?”- He said looking right into my eyes-“Long story… Problems”- I said with my eyes wet.-“Everything will be ok, life surprises us, my name is Christopher”-he said hanging his hand-“My name is Katherine, but you can call me Kath”- I said, shaking his hand –“What brings you here?”- He said with a big, white and attractive smile-“How do you know I’m not from LA”-“I didn’t mean LA, I meant this Restaurant”- he said, laughing-“Oh, I’m sorry, I just wanted to eat I think this is enough reason”- I said smiling-“Oh yes, that’s right. So where are you from? Did you come to LA because of work?”- “No, it is a long story, actually I have no work and I’m in trouble, big trouble, I’m going to have to go back to South Dakota, that’s my hometown, i thought about finding a job here, but there is nothing for me here, it seems L.A hates me, all my plans failed”-I said, speaking out what I was feeling, somehow I felt comfortable sharing this with him-“LA doesn’t hate you”- he laughed –“Well, I think you’ll like hearing it, I work in a big house as driver and my bosses need a nanny, it is a full time job, and there is a bedroom to the nanny, they really need, everyone they interviewed didn’t want to stay, because it is a full time job, they also needed to housekeep and help the kids with homework, if you think it is good for you, I could tell my bosses that I have a friend, which I trust a lot ”- he said –“Oh really ? It would be awesome, I’m not picky I just want a job and a place to stay , It sounds good, when could I go?”-“Right now, they must be having breakfast right now. I’m going to give you the address, You can go, I need to solve some problems in downtown, I’m going to call them.”- he said grabbing his cellphone-“Why you doing this for me?”- I said looking at him –“Because we need to help who needs help. Hello, Rosa, can I speak to Mrs. Blairdouf? Is she busy?”

I paid the driver’s cab and went out of the car, I was in front of a beautiful house, I mean mansion, the most beautiful, well I couldn’t compare the houses one to another, because that neighborhood was full of luxury, people there were really rich, I only saw houses like these in TV shows. I headed to the main gate, I was unsure if it was the right house, kind of insecure, out of the sudden I saw an old man standing looking at me behind the gate, he seemed to work there–“Can I help you, ma’am?”- “Yes, I’m Katherine, I’m here for the job interview, Christopher sent me in” – He walked, and started talking to someone in a telephone, he came right after and opened the gate- “Come on in, ma’am, Mrs. Blairdouf is waiting for you, just stay this way, you’re going to see her”-“Thanks a lot”- I said,
