VALENTIN Babysitter

Vanessa a slightly tall blonde-haired lady took one more look at her apartment before rushing down the stairs.

Getting downstairs, she could see the busy road and people.

"Vanessa, you can do it" she encouraged herself and then looked at her purse. The money in it isn't enough to take a taxi. Well then, she'd just go to her destination on foot.

Vanessa just turned 24 this month; still single and unemployed.

She had been fired two weeks ago from the restaurant where she formerly worked because she had upset a rich customer by accident.

Since then, she's searched for a job and finally found one as a cleaner in a small company. She was going for the interview today by 9:20 am.

It's currently 8:20 am, so she still has an hour left to get there. She pats the creases on her white gown and sighs again.

She then starts her journey admiring some things that she sees on the way.

30 minutes later,

Vanessa decided to cross over to the other side of the road since her destination was on that side. She looked at the traffic lights and saw that the third one had turned green.

With that, she began to cross but halfway she was nearly hit by a car that transgressed the rules. The driver didn't even stop to say "sorry" before speeding off.

"Damn it!" she cursed.

"These rich people have no manners. Just because they are rich they think they can do anything. May heavens punish that devil" she said as she completed her crossing.

It's good she didn't wear high heels today or else it would have been a different story. She looked at her watch and saw there were 26 minutes left so she began to jog hoping to get there faster.

When she was about to make a turn, she collided with a little girl. Both fell down and the little girl started weeping.

Vanessa got up and stared at the girl. She wasn't good with handling kids so she could only ask:

"Where are your parents? How could they leave you alone?" she asked.
