I WATCHED outside the window, watching the heavy downpour. While my siblings were confused about scooping water from the bucket.
"Sister, it's you! I'm tired, I'll feed dad some more," said my sister, Kaye Ann.
I came here and took the lid for scooping water. The hole in our roof is already big so the bucket opposite the hole in the roof fills up quickly.
"Sister, where is mom? I'm hungry..." moaned my youngest sister, Kelly. It holds the stomach and causes the stomach to boil.
"Maybe it's coming Kelly. Just be patient," I promised my sister.
"Daughter, Kathy, feed my porridge to your brothers and sisters. I will eat later when your mother comes," said father, feeling sorry for my brothers who were watching father's meal.
"Dad, eat that. And maybe later you'll get over your hunger. You still need to take medicine. Maybe it'll be even more difficult for us when you're sick again, bro, so eat that!" I promised my father.
The door creaked suddenly and suddenly it opened.
"Mom!" my brothers shouted and greeted mom with wet clothes.
"The rain is so strong, my God! I'm just reading, because if I wait for the rain to stop, your hungry brothers might fall asleep. Here's the dish, it's good and my boss gave me their leftover dish," said mother, handing the plastic to me.
I took it and prepared the dining table.
"Oh? Why did you just feed your father?" asked mother as she approached father and it was he who took a bite of food from father.
"Because, it was difficult for me to cook. The fuel in the kitchen got wet,"
"You will raise the trees when it rains. And you know that when it rains, we are also flooded here inside." He said this while taking a bite of food from father.
Almost ten years have passed since father's illness worsened. Sometimes when he can't take medicine he loses his mind. Being forgetful and doing something. Once we caught up with dad lighting his bed. He said he would cook something for us to eat. I feel sorry for dad who is upset. Because our life was already difficult, it became even more difficult because of his illness. His daily medication is even more expensive. So even though it's hard, mom does everything. We somehow manage to make ends meet, because mom earns money doing laundry and extra work. Everyone knows that mom feeds and teaches a lot, so instead of letting others do it, they rent it to mom.
There are many people who are persuading me to go abroad to help my mother. But mom doesn't want me to be far away because she's afraid I'll end up with a naughty boss. That's what happened to her when she was a girl. He went abroad to earn a lot of money but it was not ready. But he suffered even more because of the cruel boss he became. Mother experienced the hardship and cruelty of her employers. That's why when he was saved, he promised himself that he would never go to another country. Even for our children, he never dreamed of us stepping foot in another country. In mom's mind, we can get along even if we are together here at home. In order to help my mother, I sometimes join her in doing the laundry. But when there are only a few things to do, mom doesn't take me with her and dad just watches me, because my siblings are still in school. I take care of dad while mom is away, so I can't be away from my family anymore.
But fate is just bitter. Mom came home pale and coughing that night. So I was very worried.
"Mom... are you all right?" I ask here.
"I'm fine son, I just have a bit of a cold because of the different weather. Later I'll be fine, I'll just sleep for a while." Mom lay down on the bed so I was left stunned. I know mom feels sick. But he fights because there is no one else to rely on when he gets sick. I feel sorry because mom hardly gets any rest, and she works all week because if she stops for just one day, dad's medicine will fail. Mother's day is important and she has no time to relax. I just shook my head because even if I wanted to help mom, I couldn't do anything.
I went out to cool off, at least I could breathe easy from the problem we were dealing with every day. I sat on the chair outside and stared at the dark sky. I hope the heavens do a miracle tonight and it rains lots of money. I whispered while closing my eyes...
I felt a paper hitting my face. What is this? Has my wish come true? I suddenly woke up and saw a paper on my face that was waving. I looked down and saw my youngest sister, Kelly. Waving his paper in my face.
"Sister... help me with my assignment," he said.
"I thought it was money! Oh my! Money that turned into stone!" he said while taking a piece of paper and reflected what was written there.
I guess I'm the only one hoping for a miracle. Although the truth is that there really is no miracle. I taught my brother and when I finished he also went to sleep. I was left outside alone.
My friend Susan came later. "Hey Bess!" I shouted here. He came to me and sat next to me.
"Or why?" it immediately asked. He works at a bar in town so he comes home late.
"It's okay, I'm just asking... maybe you know something that I can work with. Or earn money,"
"Hahaha. You? Going to work? And how is your father?" it asked with a laugh. Because he knows that no one is watching over dad but me.
"It's because mom is getting sick. I want to work and let mom rest."
"You're not the one who got sick!" it promised me.
"It's okay! I'm serious, maybe you can put me in your job." I seriously promise here that his eyes widened.
"What? Are you going crazy? Do you want your mother to cheat on me? She's warning you not to go to a foreign country and then you'll just waste your body for short-term money?" He said in disbelief.
"Please bes, I want to help my mother. Just don't tell me. You know, that will make me angry but I'm desperate to earn money. Help me bes, I'll do everything for my family." I am pleading with my friend.
He sighed before speaking.
"Osige, come with me tomorrow. Maybe you'll hesitate?! Don't embarrass me in front of the customers!" said Susan to me.
I nodded. Susan stood up and said goodbye to me, "I'm going home, we'll see each other tomorrow."
I smiled and nodded again before he left. I was left alone outside and thought again. I hope I can make it tomorrow, I know Susan's job is not good. But I will do it for my family. What I want is to give my virginity to the man I will marry. But with the hardships of life, it looks like that won't happen anymore. We're just going to die wide open, and I haven't seen the man I'll share my femininity with. If this is the only way I can do it, why would I refuse?
The next day, I told mom that I was just going to Birthdeyan. My mother allowed me to go out of the house. At Susan's house she arranged and dressed me according to their attire. A sexy and very short dress that almost made my chest burst. And my groin can be seen because of my short clothes.
"Well, I'm embarrassed to wear it. Is it really necessary?" I asked Susan.
"Well, yes, how can customers be attracted to you if they can't see your investment? You're crazy, you're sure to have a lot of customers. Most of them want something fresh and young. Your skin is really smooth. , and that's why you're so sexy," he complimented me before taking the bag and hanging it on me. "Let's go! When we are many," he said before we finally left Susan's house.
Arriving at the bar I was a bit confused and scared. What did I get into, I feel like I want to go home. I'm afraid of men looking at me that if they look at my body it's like saliva. I was a little embarrassed to cover my chest and Susan laughed and whispered to me.
"That's just the beginning, you'll get used to it too!" he said before we stood at the side of the stage and looked to see if we would have any customers.
"Well, I'm nervous..." I said to Susan.
"Don't be nervous, as long as you're easy. Just make your customers happy and you'll definitely make a lot of money," Susan told me.
I just drooled and composed myself again. Until Susan suddenly tapped me.
"There you go!" Susan taught me.
"Which one?"
"Do you see that man?" I followed Susan's index finger and saw the old man sitting in the middle. He is drinking alone, he looks rich because he has a lot of jewelry on his body and his beautiful cellphone is just sitting on the table.
"Looks like a rich man," I said.
"Come closer! You won't be rejected by that," said Susan, pushing me.
I was suddenly nervous. I didn't know what to say, but I just made up my mind. I have to do this for my family so I will do it very hard.
I walked closer to the old man and had the courage to stand beside him.
He looked at me and smiled, it looked like he had tricked me because he didn't push me away.
"Hi, are you with someone?" I ask here.
"Nothing, is it you?" asked the old man who I estimate to be in his 60s and above. His hair is now white but he is still strong because his body is still beautiful. It looked so clean that I guessed that this old man was indeed rich.
"No, can I just... go with you?" I asked here that he was very happy.
"Sure, what do you want to order? Order now, I'll take care of everything you order." I smiled at what the old man said. I can only feel the money now. I can already smell my quick recovery.
Franco Tevez, 68 years old, owns a large appliance factory. His wife is gone because he died of cancer, while his son was involved in an accident ten years ago. He has only one companion in life. And this is his only grandson. But she and her grandson were always arguing, so he was able to go out alone to vent his anger.
"Why do you look sad?" I ask here.
"Hahaha. Is it obvious from my face? It looks like I'm getting older so the sadness is fading from my face." The old man joked with me.
"No, it's just that there are times when I can read on your face that you're going through something. Don't think about it, I'll make you happy so that your problem will go away," I said, making him laugh.
"Really? You better make me happy, so I can forget my problem for a while," said Lolo Franco.
I nodded at what Lolo Franco said. We talked and talked. Until he felt dizzy because of the alcohol he drank. He lured me out of the bar. I guess this is the signal to lose the femininity I was keeping. This is where it all ends.
We got into grandpa's nice car. This car will be loved and I have only been in this car now, it has its own driver so it is not a problem to drive it even drunk.
I was secretly happy because grandpa was sure to pay me a lot. Even so, I'm still nervous because it's my first time to have sex with a man, and with an old man. So as we got closer and closer to where Grandpa and I were going, my nervousness was getting stronger.
We entered the vast and enormous house. I guess this is where grandpa lives, my suspicions were correct. Grandpa is really rich because the security is tight just outside. Until the car is entered in the spacious garage. Grandpa and I went downstairs and he invited me inside the house.
I was amazed at the beauty and spaciousness of the house. I almost fell in love with the beauty and height of grandpa's house. I'm like a princess who got to the palace house, but I don't have a prince, because I feel like my prince has a curse and he's twice as old as I am.
"Kathy, stay at home!" grandpa promised smiling.
"Thank you," he said as we walked towards grandpa's living room.
"What does this mean?!" a baritone voice echoed throughout the house. Grandpa and I both turned around at the top of the stairs and I stared at the man who came down.
"Oh my gosh! My prince!" I exclaimed.

"She is Kathy my girlfriend." Grandpa introduced me.
Lance's mood changed immediately and his face suddenly became stern.
