                     TARA   P.O.V

I come back from the market in a hurrying to prepare lunch for the kids in the orphanage, i then started unpacking the things that i bought from the market.

While I was chopping the vegetables, James came up to me asking me if I could help him put on his shoe's please.

" Tara can you help me put on my shoe's? "

Okay James, come here, there you go I'm done.

"Thank you Tara".

You are welcome James., James is one of the orphanage kids here, he always can't wear his shoe's. I continued chopping the carrots after helping James put on his shoes.

Tara is my name I'm 20yrs old i lived here in an orphanage meaning I grew up here. The orphanage is in a small village far from the city, i don't know how i got here but i was told by the owner of the orphanage that they don't know where my parents are.

I was brought in by a good Samaritan who saw me laying on the road side, so i have lived my whole life here in this small village.

I wonder how the city looks like, i finished preparing lunch for the kids, then I served them their food. I've come of age so l have started helping the owner, Mrs Adams in cooking, washing and helping the kids to dress up and bathing them.

"Tara! when you are done with your work let me see you in my office".

"Okay Mrs Adams", after putting the kids to bed, i went up to her office and knocked.

"Come in".

"I heard her voice then i enter".

" Tara have a seat", she said.

"I sat on the chair in front of the desk".

" Tara do you remember Mrs Benson".

" Yes please".

"Okay", she has recommended you to work for her as a maid in her mansion, so my dear what do you think huh.

A big chance for me to go to the city, i know Mrs Benson as a very kind and caring lady. Every month she comes here to do charity work here in the orphanage, everybody adores her. I accept the proposal, i will work for her Mrs Adams i said to her.

"Okay my dear", Mrs Benson will come this weekend so start packing your things.

"Okay Mrs Adams".

"You can now go to your room", she said.

I walk back to my room, and lie down on my bed imaging how the city look like. During the weekend Mrs Benson came and pick me up to the city, i said goodbyes to Mrs Adams the kids and the teacher here.

I will miss them all, and the orphanage. A journey to my life start now, i sat in her car and we drove off. So this is how the  city really looks like, it beautiful, huge and busy, unlike in the village were I comes from.

" Wow! beautiful", we drove to Mrs Benson's house i mean her mansion. It beautiful, i have never been to a huge house or mansion before. So this is how mansion looks like, the one we have in the village is different from this.

We got done from the car straight to the living room, Mrs Benson started calling someone " Olivia!".

"Yes!"  Mrs Benson.

"Olivia this is Tara smith she will be helping you to run the mansion".

"Okay Mrs Benson".

"Good", where is my husband and the children.

"Mr Benson is in his office right now and the children are in their rooms", Olivia said.

"Okay show her to her room", she said and left.

This is my first time writing a book, i'm sorry for any spelling mistakes and grammar mistakes.
