Ella is really lucky to have such rich people as her parents.The gate man opens the gate for us, and we go into the compound. “We have reached, princess.” Ella's dad says to her daughter. “Yes, father.

The streets were so cold, especially during the nights. In these two days I have slept here, I slept hungry. There was no food and people refused to give me any money. I hated my life so much.
