Lia cleaned all the tables and floor in order to earn whatever money she could earn .

Sky turned black

it was time for her to leave

she walked down the dark street with blade in her hand.

the street she used to walk was the street filled with traffickers and thieves .

Though she was very much capable of fighting . Because she learned it from the streets , she knew all the people out there but still she took extra caution by taking the blade .

upon reaching home she heard glass smashing.

“When are you going yo pay the rent you bitch !!” an angry male voice boomed

“Hey stop!! I got the money !! ” lia ran towards the door before anybody could hit her mother .

” Huh ! you better be punctual next time or else you both will suffer ” the goons left the small place

lia’s home was a really small but clean home , having only one bedroom home they managed to survive all these 3 years

“Lia you mother could have managed it why you poked in ?” her mother was angry as well as crying .

“Seriously huh mother what could have you done ? sell your body to one of the goons huh?? oh wait you have already done it thrice!”

lia lowered her head ” am sorry mom I was just angry on dad, am sorry that I channeled all my anger on you ” lia was also crying

her mother hugged her “stupid girl ! your father may have left you for a rich whore but your mother promise you that she will never leave your side ” she pulled away and wiped her tears

“now go and study” her mother gently pushed her towards the bedroom .

lia’s 5’3 height walked towards the door but she felt like she was missing something . She shook her head and walked in .

lia was a beautiful girl with high cheek bones and well defined jawline have a fair skin was a plus to her looks, but her beauty was covered with layers of tension and stress . she didn’t even had the time to talk with other people .

Her door bell rang

lia straighten up thinking ‘now whose money is pending’ she heard her mother opening the door and exclaiming ” oh Rita ! you came after a long time ….. ” she heard some muffled voices
