Maddie as she was known by the other girls, was tasked to pick up food that day. She had been given a little money to buy it and now had a couple of baskets worth of food. One good thing about her was being frugal. If the newer girls didn't like potatoes they could go find fancier work. Speaking of a fancy piece of work.

" 'Ey, Sonia. Didn't think they let you fragile things out in the sun. Figure ye'd wither away like a fancy orchid or somethin. Why you outta yer ivory tower?" She furrowed her brow as she looked at the woman. That place had the most beautiful and least tarnished by the street life. She couldn't understand why someone who had so much potential would end up in the business anyway. Certainly wasn't her top choice if she'd had one.
