CHAPTER 1
A HOPELESS SITUATION
hopeless beznadziejny
Betty Marshall was exhausted; she felt pain all through her body. All
day she had been wandering the streets of London until it got dark and
a cold winter night with heavy rain and high wind started.
When she was passing a small restaurant, the smell of soup reminded
her that she had not eaten anything for forty eight hours. She wrapped
her coat around herself, put on a hat and continued walking.
She headed for the Thames. The neighborhood was rather
unpleasant, dark and scary. She didn’t have a penny in her pocket
and felt really frustrated. She stopped om the bridge near the bank of
the river and looked at the water below her feet. She heard a melody
coming from a pub nearby, a song about a sailor who had never come
back from his voyage and left beautiful girls in tears.
Yes, in London of that time there were beautiful girls crying, but not
because of their lovers. They were crying because they were hungry
and cold and didn’t have a place to stay for the night.
“Two thousand nurses are unemployed in this town,” it was the only
answer she received for the past eight days when she tried to apply for
a job in different hospitals.
She heard somebody’s footsteps and saw light from a flashlight.
“Are you looking for something, miss?” asked a policeman passing
her. “No? Then don’t stay here any longer. It’s not a safe place for
a woman on her own.”
She thanked him and crossed the bridge.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps again.
“Madam...”
