It wasn\u2019t easy for them; earning enough to eat was difficult, but Madison somehow managed to keep herself and her daughter afloat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We need to go to the store to pick out my dress for my classmate\u2019s birthday,” Trudy said one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Yes, yes, let\u2019s go,” her mom replied, masking her worry with feigned excitement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, when Madison saw the price tags on the dresses, she realized the money she had wouldn\u2019t be enough. Determined, she went to a fabric store and bought a similar material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Just you wait, baby, you\u2019ll have a dress soon,” she promised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It took her all night to sew the dress, but the result was perfect. “Thank you, Mom, I love it,” Trudy said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But when they arrived at the party, they quickly caught the attention of the rich kids and their parents, who began laughing at Trudy’s outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Soft-hearted Trudy burst into tears and ran out of the building, her vision blurred. She wasn\u2019t paying attention to where she was going until she ran straight into the side of a white limousine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dazed, she stood still as the driver got out and started yelling at her, but he fell silent when the person in the back seat stepped out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“You should be more careful, little girl,” he said gently, his voice sounding strangely familiar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Behind her, she heard her mother\u2019s trembling voice, “Joe?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
