Chapter 1

I was walking through the darkness of night wearing hat so nobody can see my face. Suddenly I heard a loud voice behind me "Hey, YOU. Give that back!" Whoops, Got to run.

New York is a big city. There's no difference for day and night. Everybody here is lost in their own case. While me? Ehm.. Okay, here I'm running chasing by the bodyguard of 'Nightstand club'. People were amazed watching the drama of a girl running while holding her hat and a guard afraid to lose his precious thing. I turn at the corner where there comes a small bridge.

I accidentally bumped into a lady. When I looked up scrunching my face I got afraid to see whom I bumped into. 'Holy sh- this can't be happening now' I straighted my posture. "My bad, I oplogize madam Hana" I bowed a bit. In case if you don't know who she is.. Let me introduce you to the bad luck 'whom I now call'. Hana is the wife of Goliath, whose the owner of 'Durnam Company'. The company comes in ratio of most wealthiest and famous companies around the US. Now what she's doing here? actually the real question is.. What AM I doing here?! This the area of rich people and i came here to do my buissness as usually.

She was walking to her car outside one of the buildings that her husband owned, but to my bad luck I bumped into her. No, it's not my fault that her fatty pigs aka bodyguards are not doing their job properly. "Young lady, don't you see with those eyes?" One of the guard said. 'Meet me alone and I'll tell you' I bowed again "my apologize miss Hana, I couldn't see you because of this damn hat I'm wearing." She just smiled and put her hand on my shoulder "it's okay, young lady. You should buy things from our brand." Uh-Huh' I nodded kindly. Kind gestures? From rich people?? Hell nah!! She's afraid there might be any camera recording her.

I should better go- "Hey! You slut! Come back here!" No way. I looked back and saw that club bodyguard "I-I should go miss" I was about to move when she stopped me "wait, isn't that guy referring to you?" 'Yes but wtf do you have to do with it?? Just go and rest on your cozy luxurious bed' I shook my head "it's getting late miss, my grandma is waiting for me, I should go" I took hurry steps from there. Now look the richest wife is suspicious of me because of the matter that she shouldn't give a ducks about. "Miss Hana, it's glad to see you, the girl you were talking to stole my wallet." Dang! I ran and hide in dark alley, probably the back side of a restaurant. The bulb was flickering on the wall and small drops fell from the sky, it's gonna rain soon. Suddenly I heard some voices, the guards, they are looking for me. What I have gotten myself into. I checked the time and it was 11:23 pm, good! The work is at sharp 7 Am. I cried in disguise and put my head in my hands 'ducksss!' Only if I didnt bumped into that old rich lady, I would have been at home by now eating my tastey sandwiches that I made at noon. "Grrr" my stomach made the ugliest noise in centuries. "Wait, did you hear something? She might be here somewhere." I heard them. I put my hands on my stomach 'were you that loud, baby organ?' Then some torch lights came in view. Oh- they were near. 'What to do? What to do?'

"Hiding won't solve anything, girl. Come out by yourself or it won't be good for you!" Uh that threats, should be my least worries. I again checked the time and it was 11:46 pm. yeah! Time had to pass quickly today. I sighed because there's no other way 'should I face them?' "So the slut wants to play hide and seek, hnn?" The word slut got my attention, it's the club dude I know. He's been calling me that for a long time now and I won't take it this time. "Come out you bit-" before he could finish his sentence, a can hit his nose, right where I aimed it.

I came in view not forgetting to hide my face with my beloved hat. "Ehm..What time is it?" I asked them, they looked at each other. Oh three guards, probably two from the kind rich miss Hana. "Em.. 12:00 maybe" one of them answered confusingly. To which I replied "nah, it's show time." I threw a kick at the club dudes face. He cried loudly "ahh." And that's how I wasted my next thirty minutes.

I reached at my apartment that's on the third floor of 'The decent building'. Yeah, decent people stay here, like me Lols! Just kidding its the name of the building that I found amusing, so I decided to have an apartment here when I first came to New York. Actually, it's rent doesn't go beyond you can pay. You see, the real reason 'winki winki'. I entered my home and was welcomed by my blanked face grandma. My lips were now in a thin line. She pointed her index finger at me as 'YOU' and then gestured me to come forth. I went to her and bend down she blankly asked "where were you?" while closing her eyes. "Eh-h actually em.. traffic! Yes a traffic, it was a traffic grandmother and I couldn't make it to reach home at time, hehe" I hope she would accept my lie but instead she smirked and showed me her phone, Youra's name was shown on the screen. Looks like she was on call with her an hour ago. "I called your friend and she said you left for home a while ago. A traffic doesn't last for two hours here.." Huh- what kind of friend does that? When she clearly knew what happened. For your concern, Youra is my best friend for two years now. She's the first person with whom I felt comfortable after coming to NY. In addition, that princess does the exact same thing that I do. She was with me at club, in fact she's the one who dared me to seduce that bodyguard. No wonder why he kept calling me 'slut'. "Young lady," okay now grandma's gonna call me that too. I sighed and got up "I'm going to bed. Good night grandma" I kissed her temple.

I took a warm shower and and went to my bed. Across from my building is a hotel and one of it's room's window faces mine. I opened my tablet to continue reading my novel. I couldn't concentrate as my mind kept drifting to the events I faced today. Also my back hurts "those son of-" I stopped myself from cursing cuz' it's not my thing. 'Why don't we make a coffee' I got up and went to kitchen, made myself some coffee and had some brownies with it. While I was eating, my phone buzzed. It was youra. Yeah girl, was waiting for you. I picked up "heyy sweeti-" and didn't wait for her to speak "Whoyouthinkyouare!! howdareyouliedtograndmaABOUTMEEEE!!" I was breathing heavily because of my outburst. "Calm down, take a chill pill dude" I rolled my eyes at her even tho she couldn't see. "Drop the drama, tell me why you called?" I took a sip "okay listen, tomorrow is a promotion day of yours and Mina said you should be on time aanddd about your grandma, what you wanted me to tell her that your granddaughter tried to seduce a bodyguard just so she could hand his wallet?! Huh!" That also made me roll my eyes to the side. "K!" I cut off.

I turned off my lamp, the only luminosity in the room was from outside. Suddenly my eyes fell on that room and what caught my attention was " a couple kissing and dancing" a mumbled. I sighed and faced ceiling 'where's my man?' I pouted and went to sleep. Let's meet the world tomorrow again for now, good night!
