What’s up guys, I’m Naya and I’m from India.

My mom raised me all by herself and she didn’t have it easy. We were poor. Very poor. She worked as a maid for this super rich family, and when I was 8 years old I begged mom to let me work with her too so we could earn extra money.

“Please mom, I wanna help.”

“Oh I don’t know…”

“Please!”

“Well, okay honey. Thank you.”

“Yay!”

I was excited, but I didn’t really understand how terrible my mom’s work was.

When we arrived I was so shocked by how massive the house was. It was a mansion, all white and pristine like a palace. We didn’t get to enter through the front since we were considered inferior, so we had a small back entry where we got changed into our uniforms and started our tasks for the day.

My mom and I were in the living room cleaning up. I was only 8 years old so I was pretty clumsy, and I accidentally knocked over a glass of orange juice that was on the table, staining the fluffy white carpet.
