Not poor but far from rich. That's Elina's family.
Being a daughter of a normal family, work is the most needed.
After graduating from college 3 years ago, all she was doing is work, work and work.
Standing now in her boss's office, waiting to know why she was called in here when she was supposed to be heading home.
"actually Elina I don't know how to start but.... I have to let you go" Elina's boss said
'no no it can't be true I must be misunderstanding him... Why??!' she thought.
"you mean I'm fired sir?!" Elina exclaimed.
" I am sorry Elina, but you know how jealous is my wife, I couldn't convince her, she thought considering how beautiful you are that it will come a time that we will....... You know..."
She was right, Elina was beautiful, tall, curvy, with a black long hear, she always steal man's attention and bring out the woman's jealousy. That's why she was wearing sunglasses, and putting her hear in bun.
" Okay sir, you don't need to continue" she answered embarrassed. She was sad but she never show it.
"you will find you last check with Ronan. It was an honor to work with you this past year and I am truly sorry Elina" he said sadly. He really loves her like sister but his damn jealous wife was making his life a living hell.
"thank you sir it was a pleasure working with you sir" she answered. He was a nice boss to her.
"Please call me Eric, if you need any help don't hesitate to ask" he said holding his hand out for her to shake.
"thank you Eric I will go now goodbye"shaking his hand and heading out.
After taking the check without even looking at it, she took the bus to her home.
"good evening" she said locking the door
"Good evening sweetheart" her mom said smiling.
"Good evening Elina" her dad said "how was you day?"
"I will tell you at dinner" she said kissing him in the cheek.
she didn't want to tell them now, she want to rest in her room and think alone before telling them. Not because they will say something bad to her. Her parents were always nice to her and her brother.
She enter her room, she throws her bag on the bed and go to the closet.

After changing her clothes

She laid in her bed thinking about today's events.
Suddenly, her phone rings. She answered after knowing that is her best friend who is calling.
"Hellooooo Eli" she screams
Elina chuckled " oh hello Suzy"
" where are you girl I missed you, you promised to visit me but you never showed your pretty face" Susan was Elina's childhood friend. Susan had move out of the town to attend college
But they always keep in touch.
"I miss you too, but you know that I have been busy Suzy, and you also know that I need money to do so which I can't just spend it on traveling" she said with sadness.
Elina was been helping her family's debt, after her parents toke money from their friend to buy the house.
" I always tell you don't need to worry as I can pay for it but you always turn down my offer"
" Susan I can't just accept it, you know I like to do it on my own."
"yeas yeah yeah anyway how are doing in your job?"
"actually I am jobless" she said sadly
"OMG what happened?!" she exclaimed
"you know his jealous wife... "
After she ended the call, she did a little of job hunting founding nothing living in a small town doesn't help.
heading downstairs,to the kitchen
"what's for dinner mom" she asked
"you favorite, pizza" she said smiling
"sounds delicious" she chuckled
After having dinner, they were all sitting in the living room watching tv
"actually......." all eyes on her now
"I lost my job" she said looking down
"what happened sis?" her brother James asked
After telling them what happened, she said "I did a little hunting and there is nothing"
"you can help in restaurant until you find one" her dad told her
"but how are we going to pay next month's debt you know he is been asking for his money lately because of his financial problems" James asked his dad
"we will figure it out" his dad said sadness and and worry are clair in his face
"I ve been thinking about it and actually I am considering .....finding a job in LA" she said
" you know that is a very dangerous move Elina, specially you never lift the town" her mom stated
" I am big and strong enough mom, and I will not be alone Susan is there if I need anything"
"But..." her dad said
"all I need is my family support" she said " and I'll head the day after tomorrow to LA to try"Elina said waiting for their reaction
They all nodded their heads, and her mom hugged her
After booking a ticket to LA, she prepared her suitcase and make sure to tell Susan about it who go crazy after hearing the news.
'I am coming LA' she thought
