"The tumor in her brain is getting bigger and bigger. If this goes on she will die soon. Maybe in a minute or an hour. We can't say anything. If you want to save her then arrange 4 million for her operation including her medical expenses. After arranging money, deposit it at the reception so that we will start her surgery. Now please get a side we have other patients to look after" the bulky doctor said rudely and harshly pushed her.
Celestine stumbled on her feet and fell to the ground on her knees."From where I will arrange this much money? I don't have any family and for relatives, they can hardly earn for their regular necessities." Celestine knelt in a corner of the hospital with puffy black eyes.After sitting there for some time she managed to stand on her feet and walked with trembling steps. All the way her mind was repeating one-word "money".She entered her village and begged everyone for their help."I am begging you all please lend me your gold jewelry. Celia is in pain. She is swinging between death and life. Please help me in her surgery." Celestine joined her hands and pleaded with everyone.All village people looked at her with pity but none of them were ready to help her."Sorry, Celestine. You know we all are poor just like you. Let her die. At least she will be free from this painful life." Her aunt said and everyone agreed with her.They all left her there alone. She cried hard. Her heart was filled with bitterness.Her parents helped them all. In the past when any of the village family was in crisis her parents would sell their valuable things and help them.Even the house in which Julia (her aunt) was living, was her's. The only belonging that her parents left for her and Celia.Celestine wiped her tears and walked back to the hospital where her younger sister Celia was admitted.~~~~~~~~~~~"She was asking for jewelry?" Amanda who was Julia's elder daughter said blowing out a sneer in the air."Yes. And Thanks to Jesus she did not ask for the house." Julia sipped tea from a clay cup."How shameless. She wants to make us all suffer just for that dying bitch" Amara (second daughter of Julia) said with disdain."Enough! I shooed her for now. If you both see her near the village just push her out. Those two sisters were only a burden on us." Julia walked to the kitchen to prepare lunch.They were having lunch on someone else property. The field from where they earn was of the poor girls. But none of them have even a bit of humanity. They can't understand the pain of others until they went through it by themselves.~~~~~~~~~~Celestine sat near her sister holding her hand which was void of any flesh. Only bones were visible.Celia opened her almond eyes weakly and looked at her sister who was trying hard to control her emotions"How much time I have?" Celia asked with bitterness in her voice. Although she was seven years old, she was very smart."Shut up stupid! I will not let anything happen to you." Celestine covered her pale lips."You don't have to beg for money Celes. They will never help us and you know that." Celia said and a small drop of tear left from her eyes."Stop it, Celia. I don't need their help. I will arrange money and then we will leave from here. Jesus will help us. After all, we are his children." Celestine smiled."You are too stubborn Celes." Celia laughed but it ended up as a cough."Don't talk much. Here I have brewed energy soup for you. Taste it." Celestine made her drink the soup and after tugging her to sleep she walked to the near city.Celestine looked at tall buildings and expensive cars. She walked carefully afraid of dirtying those highly expensive cars.The public looked at her as if she was an alien. She felt uncomfortable under those mocking gazes.Her steps halted outside a small bar. Loud cheering of men came with clapping sounds.Celestine peeked in through the window and saw women doing belly dance and some were serving men while some were rubbing their ass cheeks on fat thighs of big tattooed men.Celestine's jaw dropped seeing all this. So this was why people of the town were different from village people. Celestine thought in her mind.She walked into the bar and silently sat in a corner. Thinking of her sister she gathered her courage but tears came out without her notice.A young lady who seems to be in her mid-twenties was noticing her. She sat opposite Celestine."Are you in need of money?" She asked Celestine while swirling her vodka glass."Yes, but how did know?" Celestine asked in utter shock."Your face is enough to show me your story. I have work for you and you will get a lot of money from it. Do you agree?" Lisa asked"Yes I can do anything to save my sister," Celestine said with hope shining in her eyes.In her excitement of earning money to save her sister, she forgot to ask about what type of work she was going to do.Legal or illegal?...After reading leave your reviews.Thank youAuthor KKDear readers, don't forget to leave your votes.

"What is your name, little girl?" Lisa asked while driving. There was a dark smile lingering on her brown lips. "Celestine," she said looking at the scenery outside the window. "You seem very young to be in the bar," Lisa said while looking at her up and down. After a second she concentrated on the road. "I am from the near village. My sister is suffering from cancer and for her surgery, I need 4 million." Celestine sobbed at the end of her sentence. "I don't have any family and in search of a job I came to town and ended up in that bar." Celestine continued. Her voice was soft and feeble. "Poor girl. It will take some time but you will earn more than 4 million. It depends on how big of a fish you catch." Lisa lightly stroked Celestine's hair and a sudden sadness flashed in Lisa's eyes whic
In meeting room of Italy's top company "Romano Construction Co." all the employees and board of directors were shivering and sweating profusely because of the young man seated on head chair with a boring expression."If we bought the land opposite to Family Mall, this will bring great profit to our company" the employee who was standing near projector looked at Damien with a horrified look."And how will this profit come" Damien rested his chin on his large palm and asked with an indifferent expression."We want this land to build a residential society and as you all see opposite to this land there is a Family Mall with all the facilities. And rich people like to live in a high end society where they can show off their wealth to their rivals." Employee finished his speech."Antonio bring all the details of this project to my office. Meeting is over" Damien ordered to his a
A sudden knock on door jolt up the sleeping Celestine. Her eyelids moved upwards and darkness welcomed her.She groaned holding her head in pain and nothing was clear to her."Celestine are you there?" Lisa asked from outside.Celestine blinked her eyes and tried to stand on her feet. She dragged her trembling legs and switched on the lights."Cele are you OK?" Lisa asked in a slightly worried voice.Celestine then realized what was going on and she replied in an instant"Yeah! I'm fine. Give me thirty minutes." Celestine said in a soft voice and made her way towards bathroom.She filled bath tub with hot water and added lavender oil in it which was present on shelf. One by one she stripped her clothes and dipped her body in hot water.Hot water washed all her worries for the time. She closed her eyes and let warm w
Hey dear readers!After reading do leave your reviews to encourage me. Also try my other books;Bad boy Stole My Innocence- ongoingQueen of Assassins - completedThank you!Your AuthorKK~~~~~~~~In the middle of a big room, Celestine laid silently on a Queen size bed all wrapped up in red sheets and duvet.Her big eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings and slightly her eyelids moved upwards. Celestine blinked and looked around the unfamiliar room which was more like a room filled with blood suffocating other people."Thank God! You finally woke up." Maira exclaimed and hugged the struggling Celestine."Where am I?" Celestine scrunched her nose. Her beautifully arched eyebrows slightly bumped creating a frown."Calm down little girl. You are in my room." Maira walked to the coffee table
"Celia" Celestine hugged the thin pale girl who was laying on bed like a paper sheet. Her body was more likely a skeleton."Where were you Cele?" Celia puffed her cheeks and pretended to be angry."I was occupied by my new job." Celestine said while helping her sister to sit on bed."Did you find job?" Celi asked in surprise but there was a spark of hope in her lifeless eyes."Yes! And good thing is that they gave me advance and now I can deposit first half amount for your surgery." Celestine was happy to save her sister. It doesn't matter if she lose her virginity for the sake of her sister's life."Cele did you beg in front of those animals?" Celia asked while frowning."I will never beg in front of them. Don't you believe me?" Celestine held her hands and pursed her lips with a hurt expression.
At afternoon Lisa, Den and Jennet were talking about silly stuffs and were laughing after every second.Celestine who was sitting separately felt goosebumps. She was embarrassed listening to them. 'How could they talk openly'. Celestine thought to herself."Cele why are you there? Come join us." Jennet waved her hand and said with a wide smile."Er.. No thanks. I have something to do. Join you all later. Bye." Celestine smiled awkwardly and left from there."She is weird" Den commented."No man she is only a little and innocent girl." Lisa hit Den on his head.Jennet only smiled and did not bother to comment.'A girl with no figure and skills captured Damien's attention. I can't let her ruin all my efforts to go near him. Only I have the right to stand beside Damien.' Jennet thought and clenched her hands into

I don't have clothes to wear. What am I gonna do now?" Celestine anxiously moved back and forth in bathroom. After five minutes of inner battle Celestine finally opened bathroom door and stepped outside."You need something?" Damien raised his left eyebrow with a questioning gaze."Yes! My clothes..." Celestine softly said and played with her fingers."I hav
Next morning Celestine woke up groaning. She felt a bone crushing pain in a certain body part.Her face flushed with embarrassment when intense activity of last night flashed in her mind.Celestine glanced at other side of bed and found it empty. She then lift up the devout and was surprised to see an oversize shirt on her upper half. But that familiar fragrance of cologne from shirt inform her of the owner."Good morning baby!" Damien walked out of bathroom with towel wrapped around his waist."G..good morning!" Celestine hung her head low due to embarrassment."There is medicine in the drawer. Take it if you feel uncomfortable." Damien instructed while wearing his pants. He wasn't affected at all but the little girl on bed was bashful."Thank you" Celestine shyly said."Freshen up and come downstairs. We will have breakfast together." Damien adjus
