Rhonda was free! Finally, after all these years of torment, she was ready to begin a her new life. The day that Victor was arrested was the last time Rhonda gave thanks to the Lord. Something got a hold of Rhonda and her life changed greatly. She was hitting the party seen hard..
Years later and several divorces from even more abusive men. Rhonda could never seem to get her life back on track. Once again, we are on the run from crazy, psycho man who this time is looking to kill. After, Victor she was never able to stay faithful,l always looking for the next best thing. We all know the old saying grass is green on the other side well, Rhonda could never find the shade of grass she wanted. We ended up moving to Black*shear to live with her dad and stepmother (Faye). Rhonda and her stepmother never got along, the whole while we lived there she was always looking for somewhere Rhonda and the girls could move to. At last, Faye had found a place for Rhonda and her girls to live. She became the manager of an apt complex and this is where life for the girls began to get difficult. See the back then the girls were Rhonda's main concern but not anymore, her own needs were far to important now.
Arica is now in the 5th grade and sole caretaker of her sister Andrea. Times were hard for these two girls. How does one learn to grow with no one to show her? But, Arica knew that she had to do something. The girls were starving. The only time they saw Rhonda was when she was pick them up from school. Other than that they were pretty much on her own. So, Arica sat down to think about what she needed to do to survive. Luckily for the girls rent was noting to worry about and Arica was able to wash clothes at the laundry mat for free. When your mother is the manager of an apartment complex she will have the to keys to the washing machines. Arica decided she needed to come up with a plan to get some money. So, one day she went door to door in the apartment complex and offered to clean their living space for a small fee. She also took out peoples trash. She began to save money and was able to walk down to the grocery store and get some food for the house. Arica worked hard her fifth grade year. But, life was about to change again
