EPISODE 4

The arrival of Sonia gladdened
Angela heart. She was
delighted. Sonia on her own part played not only the
role of
a maid. She felt much
comfortable around her madam; she just took Angela as
her elder sister.
Sonia took charge of the household chores. She took
charge of preparing the
meals. She even offered to
wash the clothes instead of taking them to the dry cleaner.
She was in desperate need for money to support
her
mother’s failing health. She was able to finish her
secondary
school but couldn’t go further to higher institutions because
of lack of finance. So, since then, she has been
looking for
money through any possible
means inorder to keep living and support her mother
who was always sick.

David bumped into Sonia as he
hurried out of his room with

“Good morning sir.I was

“I don’t think i can still have
breakfast. I have to attend an
important meeting this

leaving because of an
important meeting.

wife. Angela had been right
about bringing her in,he thought.
