The Goddess of the Moon
Episode 3 "The Truth "

Jean decides to join the other children from the orphanage, although she is uncomfortable, she does not think much about it, because according to Jean, she only temporarily lives in the orphanage.

It was already evening, the sky looked darker, the sun began to move westward in place of the moon that would illuminate the earth. Jean, who was in her room, started cleaning her old and torn mattress and she cleaned her closet, and then Jean cleaned her clothes, put them in a closet that looked like it was not worth wearing. After Jean finishes her work, Jean feels that her body is already very sticky, due to cleaning her very dirty room, Jean goes into the bathroom to clean herself (bath ). After Jean had finished bathing and changed, Jean made her way to the dining room of the orphanage, but she saw no one there, the food on the dining table was only edible for one person (1 portion ), Jean wanted to sit and eat at the table, suddenly appeared someone from the kitchen.

" Who told you to sit there?" said Miss Lin. It turned out that the person coming from the direction of the kitchen was Miss Lin, she stared intently at Jean, who dared to sit at the dining table.

" No Madam, "Jean replied with stammering eyes, frightened by Miss Lin.

" Wake up from there, "Miss Lin told Jean to get up from her seat.

" But I want to eat Madam, I haven't eaten anything since, " replied Jean. That's right, Jean hasn't eaten anything since this morning, because her uncle and aunt took her out of the morning, so Jean didn't have time for breakfast.

" then? do you think I care?, " said Miss Lin.

Jean did not answer, she did not know what to say, Jean was very hungry, but she was also afraid of Miss Lin who was looking at her sharply.

" Why are you quiet? get out of here, and get into your room. You don't have to worry about your stomach, there's going to be someone who takes food to your room with the other kids" Ms. Lin said.

" Good Mistress, " replied Jean. Jean returned to her room, Jean was relieved that she could still eat, although she was frightened by Miss Lin's sight. Jean thought Miss Lin was still nice despite looking cruel.

Miss Lin's man walked into the children's room of the orphanage, to share their food. When they arrived at Jean's room and the other children's home, Jean was happy that she was finally able to eat.

" Receive this, eat a lot, because tomorrow you have to go back to work, "said Miss Lin's errand man to Jean and the other orphanage children.

They all took the food that was shared by his man Miss Lin including Jean, he also took the food. As Miss Lin's man walked out of the room, they all opened the food parcels, the other parlors ate them voraciously, like people who were very hungry and did not eat for days. Jean opened the food, there was absolutely no appetite to eat it, how could it not? the food they gave, just like the an***ng food he gave to his pet dog while his parents were still alive.

' How could they eat it so well? this food was just like the rudolf' food Jean squealed in his heart.

But no matter how Jean ate it, if he did not eat it, he would die of hunger. Jean ate it slowly, she was reluctant to eat it, but she had no other choice, she was already very hungry. Jean ate slowly until she was finished.

' At least I'm not starving, I don't know what job the Madam's going to give you tomorrow Jean's inner self.

After they finished dinner, they all fell asleep, at first Jean felt uncomfortable, because the mattress he was in was very worn and torn, but Jean did not complain much, not much, because he felt that he was only temporarily living in that orphanage. Jean believes her uncle and aunt will return to pick her up, and she falls asleep.

It was morning, the beautiful moon had changed with the bright sun shining brightly. All the orphanage children, including Jean, were told to line up in the orphanage's backyard. Miss Lin's man began to distribute worn clothes, torn everywhere, like the clothes of beggars, some were given sticks and had to walk on limping legs, some were given pretty good clothes with hats. They were all divided into two groups, all of the children in the orphanage numbered 20 plus Jean.

" Now, change your clothes, after you have finished regrouping here, your time is 10 minutes from now" said Miss Lin.

" Good, you're all on time, the beggar group on the right and the thief group on the left" Miss Lin said.

' What does all this mean? ' inner Jean.

" I'm sorry, ma'am, what is the meaning of all this?, " said Jean, although she was nervous.

" Of course tell all of you to work, do you think staying here is free?, " replied Miss Lin.

" But I'm only here for a while, my uncle and aunt will pick me up, after they come home from abroad" Jean said.

" ha.ha.ha.ha.ha, "Miss Lin laughed loudly, before continuing her words.

" Are you stupid? do you think your uncles and aunts really went abroad and put you here so I can take care of you? you're too naive son, your uncles and aunts aren't that good. Let me tell you the truth, you were dumped by your uncles and aunts after getting your inheritance you had signed, " said Miss Lin.

Like being struck by lightning, Jean's heart felt extremely ill, she couldn't believe Miss Lin's words. Her uncle and aunt, all this time being so kind to her and not hurting her, how could they have thrown her away? Jean felt Miss Lin was just lying to her. Jean remained confident.

" No way, my uncles and aunts were so good to me, they couldn't possibly throw me away, you must have lied to me, " Jean replied. But in his heart he felt a piercing pain.

" You're too naive, son, there's no point in me lying to you. All right, it's up to you if you don't believe it, you just wait until they pick you up, whether my words are true or your beliefs are true" Miss Lin said. She doesn't care about Jean's thoughts, she just wants them all to work on her orders.

" Well, as always, you all have to beg and steal. You know if your income does not reach the target, you will not get food rations. You're all going back to the parlour at 5pm, so you have to raise as much money, do you understand?, " said Lie, Miss Lin's man.

" Understand, "answer them in unison.

They all went to do their jobs, as usual.
