Since I was born, I have been living with my mother in Hopkins's house and they had never let me out outside. I and my mother are working so hard to pay my father's debt.
My father-Pedro Meyer had never cared about us. He was gambling and drinking, that's why he borrowed 300 000 dollars from Evan Hopkins, but he could not pay because he died from a heart attack. So we were forced to pay his debt instead of him.
My dream is to be a normal girl, who has a normal life, going to school, having and enjoying being with friends, but I have never had this opportunity, I don't have any friends cause I was homeschooled.
Hopkins family has never permitted me to go outside of this house, about studying they have always said that It will cost a lot of money and preferred for me to work as a maid, but their daughter-Ericka finished her school, and now she is going to the university.
Sometimes she brings her friends into the house, partying and laughing at me, but I don't pay attention to them. My mom always says that they are jealous of me, but I don't understand why. I don't have fashionable clothes or have a lot of money like her, I am nothing to her.
Me and my mother live at the servant's house, which is so small and uncomfortable, but we spend our whole time working at the main house. Mom is a cook, and I am a personal maid for Ericka and Juana Hopkins. They have always bullied me and forced me to work all day, but when they are not at home and I have time, I always read romance books, novels. Also, I love to go to the garden, taking care of flowers. My favorite flower is a Rose like my name.
No, I don't wait for a prince to come and save me from this family. This is all fairytales. I only want my mom to be happy. After all, she deserves it.
If I ever be free, I will continue my studies and will have a good job for my future and also for my mom to have a better life.

"Girl, come here!" Juana Hopkins screamed again. She never calls me by my name.
"Yes, Mrs. Hopkins. " I know she wants me to do something again.
"I want you to clean my room and my closet, but don't you dare to spoil anything. This costs a lot. One hour, not more. " Her closet's size was twice than my bedroom. She has a lot of expensive clothes. Sometimes I think she loves her clothes more than her own family.
I entered her bedroom and what I saw made me shocked, all her things were thrown on the floor. I think that one hour won't be enough, but I don't have another choice, so I have to hurry to finish all of this.
If I don't finish it at the time, they will punish me and my mom, like don't give us food or give us a lot of hard work.
Finally, I cleaned the room, and five minutes left before it will be one hour.
Mrs. Hopkins came into her bedroom and observed the room when she found nothing, said:
"Today here is coming an important and famous family, their son will be here too, and I want him to like Ericka, so you have to go to the kitchen and help your mother, in no way, don't appear in front of us, be in the kitchen only, understood?" Juana spoke threateningly.
I understood her word's meaning, if I don't do what I was told, she will be our worst nightmare, so I said:
"Yes, I understood. I won't go outside the kitchen."
"Good, now go!" She said, and I ran to the kitchen from there. I was so hungry as I have eaten nothing since morning.
I entered the kitchen, and there were my mother and Freda.
Freda Curry is a servant too. She and my mother are best friends, so she helps us a lot. I love her so much and she is like an aunt to me.
"Mom, I am hungry," I whined like a child. Mom and Freda chuckled at my childish behavior.
"This crazy girl, come sit here and I will prepare your favorite roast chicken and salad." My mom was smiling.
"Mom, I will help you here, Mrs. Hopkins said that I must not go out from here."
"I heard that Houston enterprise's owner is coming with his family. They are important guests, so we must not make a mistake. I almost finished doing the dishes, so, honey, you can go to the house. " Mom says and placed my food on the table.
I ate the chicken and went to my bedroom to read a book.
I was so engrossed in a reading book, that I did not notice the time. It is already 7:00 pm. I stood up and went towards the main house, but I know they must not notice me, so I entered from the back door.
I was searching for my mother when I suddenly collided with someone. I was afraid that it might be one of Hopkins.
"Who are you?" a deep and powerful voice spoke.
As soon as I looked at him, I stilled.
Blue soft eyes met sharp and dark brown ones.
He was so handsome, but he seemed a dangerous man as a dark and intimidating aura was coming from him.
