Reina walked towards the garden. It was evening. A cold soothing wind was blowing. Her hair didn't stay at one place. She looked around . Everything reminded her of ' The Beauty and the Beast'. The beautiful garden, the mansion, the mysterious owner ....roses.... everything.
She sat down on a bench trying to recall the memories of her deceased mother. They used to be a middle class family. Her father worked for a small company while her mother was a loving housewife who filled their home with love and care. After her father lost his job when the company got bankrupt, he picked up gambling and alcohol. Spending money on useless things became his hobby. He used to return drunk and beat up her mother. She would get beaten up too when she went to save her. Her mother's lovely plump face had turned into a scared disfigured face. She pleaded him not to drink but that was of  no use. Often Reina had asked her the reason for staying with her father. She always replied that it was for ' Love'. Love became a fearful thing as she grew older. Her mother could not bear all the miseries and due to extreme hard work she died when she was only 13. She looked at her hands which have turned rough due to scrubbing utensils. She missed her soft hands. She missed her mother and her lost father. She grew apart from him with time. Her faint memories of her father being a ' father' seemed too impossible now.

She sighed. It's time to catch up with sleep . She was determined that she would be able to stay away from that drunk father of hers. She opened her journal  that she herself had made from thrown away things of her classmates.

She started to write down about that day. She thought " Why not make some journals from scrap and sell it online? Everyone complimented this journal. It might help me to earn a little more. "

After sometime she went inside her room. She took out the materials from her bag. Within a few hours she had made lots of those

She was looking up for an online store on her phone when she heard a loud crash from outside. She put on her slippers and went outside. The noise probably came from the mansion. She was looking at the mansion when she noticed smoke coming from a room. She gasped. Has it caught fire? She was about to rush there when it suddenly vanished. She was surprised. It was really weird. How did the smoke vanish in a couple of second ? This house was really suspectable and weird. She headed back. Simon was nowhere to be seen. She sighed and went to her room. She couldn't shrug of the feeling of uneasiness deep in her stomach . It was eating her up.

" Ugh! Man!" cried Reina. " I should focus on my business. "
She finally found a place to sell. After all the necessary things and advertisement was done , she smiled a little. She had really no hope that people would buy her handmade stuff.

She opened her books and started studying. Her mathematics test before the vacation had not been much acceptable. She needed to pay attention to her studies more.

' Ting!'
It was a notification. There were already five orders.
" Whoa! People must be crazy ! They are buying my stuff."

She couldn't wait for the next day. She would send away her notebooks to the company .She would use the money for buying some presentable clothes. Her clothes were nothing but rags. She didn't want to offend her new employer in any way.

Probably fate is going to be on her side from now on....
