"New girl wake up." Said the girl who was crying yesterday.

"Why?. I just want to die. So leave me alone," I said.

"I've been in this hell for more than two years. Don't you think I want to die, too. " said the girl. " by the way mg name is  Trisha Amanda Lee.  She said with a smile.

She was extremely beautiful. She should smile more often. 

"I'm Samya Chelsea McArthur." I point to my brother, "this is my brother Michael BJ McArthur." And I look at my mom and say "this is my mom, Samatha McArthur."

Trisha said "it's nice to meet you guys, now. girls and boys under 16, help raised the babies. Seventeen years old girls and older work in the kitchen.  And anyone else work in the construction. "

I never worked so much in my life. I lift more bricks than the people in death camp. 

At one-fifteen pm, it was lunch break. They gave me a nasty meat with white dry rice. I ate it because I was starving. Trisha use that time to get to know me.

"Why did you choose to come her?" She ask with her mouth full of  Rice.

"My mom was tired of sleeping under dirty bridges and thought she would've find a better life here. " I reply.

That's when I noticed that the situation I'm in was no different than  sleeping under bridges. I was still poor and dirty. 

"I want to escape, is that possible."

Trisha bust out a laugh and say

"Unless you want to be tied up naked and getting beating with woods for ten days, with no food to eat and a battle of water once a day. Good luck." She took a bit on the nasty looking meat and continue "and if you succeed. Your family would be tortured  and killed."

"Would they ever let us go then?"

"Nope never. When you get old and you can't work anymore They just kill you."

"Why did you come here by yourself?" I ask with a curious look on my face.

"I didn't. I came here with my mom and dad. The prince killed them both right a front of me and told me if I wanted to stay alive I better work very hard."

"What an asshole."  I said, A little bit too loud.

Trisha cover my mouth fast and look around to see if anyone have heard me "don't say things like that. The prince with his own hands would give you a whooping . "

".... Sorry " I said softly.

"Its okay. I learned that the hard way. He almost killed me that day. His mom spared my life. Just be careful."

I know this parts are kind of boring but bare with me it's about to get interesting.
