Now I have my wings

Chapter 2

Angela had always wanted to have a job that allows her to travel and explore the world. It has always been a thing she would have liked to do but now the desire to do it is almost unbearable  for her. All she wanted to do now  was to escape  from  the heart wrenching  village and go explore other countries.She wanted to go to poor countries and help the children  and families that are there.She wanted to help children achieve  their dreams.Angela's mum worked at a place where they help poor countries and children. But now she would need a miracle to get out of the village when she 50 years old.She thought all of this while hanging up the washing (the third one for the day)her aunt always changed outfits every two hours. She quoted, 'A girl needs to look pretty every hour of day'whenever Angela grumbled a about it.Now Angela  was sick of it! She was twelve  years old
today and the only present  she got was her aunts old sock that smelled like mould cheese.

The next day Angela woke up to see her aunt walking up and down the street with a large smile on her face.At this Angela groaned thinking her aunt was about to give her another, 'treat'.She staggered  across the small room she had been given, a small trunk poked from under the bed.Moaning Angela heaved it out (her whole body ached from scrubbing  the  floors the previous day). Her eyes filled with tears as she scanned the contents.In their  was a photo  of her parents and a huge pile of post cards from around the world., Again her eyes filled  with tears but this time they were ones of hatred for her aunt.She was only 12 and she already  had joint pains!Glowing with anger Angela stormed out of the house with her only dress.Her aunt smiled wildly and chirped  in a sweet voice "I have a suprise for you my love."
