Her Cruel Stepmother Gave Her Away to a Beggar… Years Later, Everything Changed

Are you seriously on your phone again? When are you going to finish cooking? Now, quickly finish the food. If I catch you on that phone again, I’ll throw you out of this house. Understood?    If my dad was still here, nobody would treat me like this.    Step mom, I finished cooking.

 I’m going to go study now. What? Who said you could go study? Clean the whole house first, then you can study. Got  it?    I’m going to study hard, get a good job, and build a home of my own someday. My step  mom always finds something wrong with whatever I do.  Help me. Please.

 Please, just give me a little money.  Who the hell is that idiot now? What’s your problem? Why do you keep banging on my gate?   Please help me. I’m really hungry.  We don’t have any money. Go beg somewhere else, idiot.  Please, even just a few coins. I just need enough to get something to eat.  How many times do I have to tell you? We have nothing to give you.

 If you don’t have money, then please give me some food. I’m really hungry.  Are you stupid? How many times do I have to tell you?  Ma’am, I’m really really hungry.  Okay, wait. I’ll get you something to good.     Come with me outside.  This is the only useless thing I have. Take her with you.

 From today on, she’s yours.  What? Stepmom, what are you doing? You’re giving me to a beggar?    I know I’m not your real daughter, but you can’t do this to me. If my dad were here, he’d never let anyone treat me like this.  Don’t you dare raise your voice at me. Got it? You’re not my daughter, idiot. I’ve made my decision.

  From now on, you’re staying with this beggar.  But, ma’am, I don’t even have a place to stay. Where am I supposed to take her? I don’t even have food for myself. What am I supposed  to feed her? Ma’am, I can’t take her with me.  Idiot. Take her with you. She’ll be useful to you. She’ll cook for you. She’ll cook for you and take care of you.

No one would marry you anyway. You’re getting a wife for free.  But, ma’am,  Enough. Don’t say anything else. Just take her with you.  Stepmom, please. Don’t do this  to me.    What happened? Are you okay? If you don’t want to come with me, that’s okay. You can go back. I’m used to being alone.

 I somehow manage on my own. If you want to go,  you can. I won’t stop you.  My stepmom kicked me out of the house. Where am I supposed to go now? I don’t have anyone else. She’s the only person I have.   Don’t cry. I’m here with you. I’ll always take good care of you. If you want, you can come with me. But, I don’t have anything.

 I survive by begging.  It’s okay. I don’t have anyone now. So, I’ll  stay with you. Maybe this is the path God has written for me.      You’re okay, right? Nothing’s bothering you?  Isn’t there somewhere else we can sleep properly tonight?  No. I sleep right here every night.  How can you sleep here every night?  I’m used to sleeping like this now.

 Okay, I just feel really weird sleeping out here in public.  It’s your first time. That’s why it probably feels strange.  By the way, you didn’t tell me your name. What’s your name? Alex.   My name is Alex. My mom gave me that name. She loved me so  much.  Alex, that’s a really nice name, honestly.

Where are your mom and dad? Why do you live alone?  My mom and dad died  in an accident. I’ve been an orphan ever since.  Oh, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know you’d been through all that.  I was just a kid when my mom and dad died in that accident. I’ve been surviving by begging ever since I was a kid.

 Have you ever tried finding a job instead of begging?  Nobody wants to hire me.  They just call me a beggar and send me away.  Oh, that’s so sad.  You should get some sleep now. It’s really late.    Okay, you should sleep, too.  Please, anything you can spare. I’m hungry. Please, sir. Even a little would help.

Please help me. May God bless you. Please, anything you can give. God will reward you.    He’s so innocent and he’s out here begging. I guess not everyone gets everything they want in life.  Please,  ma’am. Anything you can give me.  I have to do something. I can’t sleep out here in public every day.

 And I don’t want to watch Alex beg from people like this, either. We’ll eat less if we have to, but I’ll work hard and make it. Maybe I can find Alex a job. He needs a real job. It would be so much better than begging. I’ll find a way to get him a job. He deserves a chance. Wait. I remember seeing a clothing factory nearby.

 Why don’t I try there? Maybe they can give Alex a job. It’s worth a try. I’ll take him there and ask for a job.    What did you do? Why did you throw it away? That’s how I make money.  You don’t need to do this anymore, Alex. Come, Alex. I’m going to get you a job.    You won’t have to beg anymore.

 You really think you can find me a job?  Don’t worry about how you’ll get the job. Just come with me. Just come  with me. I’ll get you a job.  Are you crazy?  Don’t argue with me. Just come with me. I think this is the factory. I should talk to someone about a job.    Come on.

 I’ll talk to them and see what they say.  You brought me here for nothing. No one’s going to hire me.  Come on, stay with me.    We need to find someone in charge. Let’s ask around.    That man looks like a supervisor. I’ll talk to him.  Sarah, what if he refuses  to hire me?  Don’t worry about that.

 Let me talk to them first. I’m sure we’ll figure something out.  Who let this beggar inside? Security! Security! Who let you come inside? This isn’t the place to beg for money. We make clothes here, idiot. We don’t beg.  Please don’t talk to him like that. I brought him  here. He’s been living on the streets and begging just to survive.

 I’m only asking you to give him one chance. Please, just give him a chance. He’ll work  hard.  [laughter]  You’re serious. You’re serious. So, now we’re going to have beggars working here?  Just because he begs doesn’t mean he can’t do other work. He deserves a chance to live his life  with dignity, just like everyone else.

 I’m sorry, but we can’t do that. We can’t risk damaging our factory’s reputation.  We can’t hire a beggar and risk our reputation. Happy  now? You got me humiliated in front of everyone. I told you not to bring me anywhere. I knew this would happen.  Please, just  give him one chance. Let him prove himself.

 You can give Alex any work you want. Let him do whatever you need. And don’t even pay him for today. Just see what he can do. Please, just give him one chance. That’s all  I’m asking.  Fine. I’ll keep him here, but only because you asked me to. If he doesn’t work properly, he won’t get paid for today.  Yes, that’s completely  fine.

Just work hard, okay? Do your best.  I will.  I’ll give it everything I’ve got. I won’t give him any reason to complain.  I know you will. I know you’ll do a great job. Okay, you get to work. I’m heading outside now.  Sir, what should I do? Just tell me what work you need.

 Start with those heavy fabric rolls. Carry them to the production floor.  Looks like he’s going to do everyone’s work by himself.  Yeah. That boy works really hard.    Alex, it’s time to go home. You can stop working now. You really did a great job today. I’m impressed with your work. Here. Take this as a little advance.

From tomorrow, you come here every day. You’ll get a good salary.  Thank you, sir.    Sarah, thank you. Thank you for helping me get this job. And he even gave me some money in advance. I start working there every day from tomorrow.  I’m really happy for you, Alex.  You finally got a chance.

 You worked hard for this. Now, just keep going and don’t give up. Things are going to get better now. You’ll see. Now that we have some money, we don’t need to stay on the road anymore. Alex,  we should find a small room for ourselves now.  You’re right. Let’s find a small room.    It’s small, but at least we finally have a place of our own.

 Yes, it’s enough for now. We’ll make it better with time.  Before today, I used to sleep wherever I could find a place. Sometimes I’d sleep at the station, sometimes on the roadside.    I never knew where I’d sleep the next night.  You’ve been through so much, Alex. You really had a difficult You don’t have to live like that anymore.

Things can be different  now. Go to sleep now. You to go to work tomorrow, too.    I’m leaving for work.    Why don’t I find some work, too? Alex is working so hard. I’ll find a job today.    Excuse me, do you know anyone who needs a maid?  I don’t know right now, but I’ll ask around.

 Excuse me, ma’am. Are you looking for a maid?  Yes, actually, I’m looking for someone to help with the house. I can do all the household work properly, cleaning, cooking, washing. All right, you can start working here from today.  Thank you, ma’am. I won’t give you any reason to complain.  Come inside.

 I’ll show you what needs to be done. Sarah, start with the living room. Clean everything properly.  Yes, ma’am. Don’t worry, I’ll make everything spotless.     You must be tired.  Take some water. Now, we’ll build a better life together. We’ll work hard and achieve  everything we want.  Yes. We’ll make it happen together.

 Tomorrow, we’ll both work again.  Slowly, everything will get better.  Yes.    At least now we have a proper place to call home.     Sarah, make some food now. I’m hungry.    Here you are, ma’am. Your lunch is ready.    Ma’am, can I go home now? I have something important to do.

Okay, Sarah. You can go.    This would look really good on Alex.    Come on. Let’s go home. Shopping’s done. I’m so happy you’re home.    I’m so happy you’re home. Alex, I brought something for you.    What?  I bought you some new clothes. You’ll wear these to work now.

 Thank you so much, Sarah. Thank you for doing all this for me. If you weren’t with me, I’d probably still be begging somewhere.   [singing]  Alex, I’m very happy with your work. I want you to work as a supervisor from now on.  Thank you, sir. I’ll do my best.  Good.  From today, you look after the workers here.

   What happened? You look so happy today.  You won’t believe it. I’m a supervisor now.  Alex, this is the result of your hard work.    You’re truly a very hard-working man. Let’s celebrate tonight. We’ll go to a restaurant for dinner. Come on, get ready.   Let’s go.  Honestly, this is the first time I’ve ever eaten food like this.

   Alex, all of this is the result of your hard work.  Sarah, you’ve truly changed my life.    I don’t know where I’d be today if you hadn’t helped me.    Sarah, you don’t need to work as a maid anymore. I’m earning well now. You don’t  have to struggle anymore.

 You’ve got me now.  Okay, Alex. Whatever you think is best.  Sarah, we’ve been together for quite some time now.    There’s something I want to ask you. What is it, Alex?  Sarah, will you marry me?   [cheering]  Yay! Congratulations.   I still can’t believe we’re really getting married.

   From now on, we’ll build our future together.      Beautiful, Alex.    Our first car, Sarah.    Nomasa, a serious case has been filed against you. You have to come with us.  I haven’t done anything wrong. I swear. I didn’t commit any crime.  Prove that in court.

 Now, come with us, old woman.    My daughter, look, they’re framing me in a false case.  You threw me out of your home 5 years ago.  Please, Sarah. Save me. I don’t want to go to jail.  I can’t do anything.  Face the consequences of what you did. Nomasa, one day God will surely punish those who do wrong. Please don’t do this.

 I raised you in my own arms. Come  on, let’s go. Hurry. You know, when you do wrong to someone, sooner or later, life finds a way to teach you the same lesson.    That’s why we should always treat people with kindness. Never hurt someone who trusts you. What we do to others always comes back to us.
