??THE SCENT ??
(WHEN THE RICH MAN FALL IN LOVE WITH A BEGGAR)
EPISODE 1?
(THE BRIEF ENCOUNTER)
AMELIA’S POV ?
“Ouuuuuuch” I cried out before going out to vomit whatever is in my belly that needs to come outta there.
“Hmmmm” I felt relieved now. Indigestion!
Indigestion has became a part of me. And vomiting has became a routine I must perform each time I take a meal. I think the day I would stop having indigestion, would be the day I stop eating junks and go for a better and nice meal.

” Peace”
