Once upon a time,there lived a lovesick girl. Her name is Elena. Elena hated the feeling called love. She didn't want to even hear about it. When she turned 16, she tragically lost her parents in a car accident. None of her family members wanted to take her,so she was taken to an orphanage. When she turned 18, she got adopted into a rich family. The Madden family. They all loved her so much and they treated her like she wasn't adopted at all. And for the first time, Elena had a loving family. As life went on, Mrs Madden passed on. Elena thought it was her fault so she ran away. Elena ran from Colombia to Washington DC. When she got there,she passed by a strange ally. While she was walking,a young man who was clearly on drugs, started following her. Elena noticed so she started walking faster. But the man caught up with her. Elena gradually began to worry so she started running but eventually she slipped and fell. The young man got to her and he molested Elena. After molesting her, the young man ran away. Elena sat there, crying her lungs out. She then gave herself the nickname "portador de mala suerte " which meant bringer of bad luck. Elena then decided to gather herself and start a life for herself. She got up, and as she was walking,she saw a poster which said "WAITRESSES WANTED" and so she went and applied for the job. After 2 weeks time, Elena got hired as a waitress. Elena loved her job and her job loved her. But one day, while Elena was looking for an apartment (approximately a month after getting her job) she bumped into a young man called Felix. Elena was so embarrassed by the fact that she had split her coffee on Felix's white tshirt. Felix looked at his shirt, then he looked at Elena and smiled.
