It was now almost two months since August was working at the Knights. She was missing Caroline so much and was thinking to meet her. But, she wasn't sure if Martha would permit her to have a day off so that she could meet Caroline.

She was now having lunch along with all the other maids and Martha. All were gossiping and Martha was talking to one of the maids.

"So that's why I'm here working for this rich family!" She heard someone said. She was snapped out of her thought and looked at Vanessa beside her who was telling her something but she was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't hear a single thing.

"Uh...I'm sorry but what did you say? D-do you mind r-repeating?" Venessa chuckled.

"Of course hun. Well, I was saying that my mom is sick and my dad is a drunkard, so I have to pay for my little sister's school fees and the other expenses that's why I'm working here." She stated sadness was clear in her voice. Her heart clenched. She has parents but not the one that a child would ask for.

"I'm sorry Venessa."

"Oh, silly don't apologize it's not your fault." She said giving August a warm smile.

"And what about you?" She asked me.

"Uhm..my aunt couldn't bear my expenses and she does not earn much that's why." She nodded her head in response.

"I see. Let's go and put the plates in the sink, we're done eating anyway." Venessa said and walked away with August.

She was thinking to ask Venessa if Martha would allow her to meet Caroline, as Venessa was there for a long time she thought asking her would be best.

"Uhm...Venessa." She called out her name.

"Hmm?"

"I was thinking...to have a day off so that I can meet my aunt, so do you think Martha will allow me?" She asked nervously.

Venessa sighed and looked down. That made August perturbed.

"Aug...the maids who work here....they stay here permanently and cannot go out and meet their families." August's eyes were replenished with tears.

Does that mean I can never see Caroline? Oh god! Why did I start working here in the first place!

Venessa bit her lip but eventually burst into laughter. August frowned and stared at her in confusion.

"Oh my god August....look at your face." She laughed more. Venessa dramatically clutched her stomach when laughing. But stopped when she saw August's serious look.

"Honey of course you can meet your aunt! I was just teasing you don't cry." She chucked and wiped her tears. August's face was red as a tomato now.

The problem was it sometimes worked and sometimes it didn't. Like other people, she also wanted an adequate phone that works

decided to leave her hair open and brushed her brown blocks perfectly. She never really felt any confidence towards her hair before, but one day Venessa told her that her brown hair suited her a lot. That didn't arise her confidence when Venessa said that but, she liked it, as it was the first time someone
