Growing up on the streets is not a luxury. LisaSurihani remembered being on them as long as she could remember. LisaSurihani was abandoned on the streets as a child. Her parents was an immigrant from Asia were struggling to take care for her future, also themselves and knew they couldn't provide for her. So they left her on the side of the flower shop when she was 1 years old with the notes written:

"LisaSurihani. With your good heart, please keep and care for her, God bless You".
hoping any woman around the flower shop would find her and take her in.

 From a far across the street, her parents watching. Few hours later, A young lady name Nadia the owner of BellaVista flower shop stop by, This is a surprise for LisaSurihani parents. They definitely sure that their daughter future will be brighte. Nadia keep LisaSurihani with her and bring her inside. I'ts almost night time.

 With there being so many homeless children in the city LisaSurihani was alone and on he own, she just be around the flower shop as a helper to the business. The woman that kept LisaSurihani taught her how to teal and defend for herself. She taught her how to build business and how to stay alive during difficulties. She taught her everything she knew until one day when LisaSurihani was 16 the woman suddenly disappeared. Not knowing what became of her teacher she kept on the move and take over the florist. Until she was acknowledge that war was going on across the nation. 

 As her 20th birthday was just around the corner she decided it was time to find a new family, not a literal one but people that could protect her and never leave her. As LisaSurihani walked the streets with awareness, watched everyone with wide eyes and observed some people that looked like they were part of a crew, she watched them for weeks before making her move.

In sudden, a man approach Lisa Surihani and it is Nadia's lawyer,

"Hey Miss, i have your picture in this file. Glad to found you! I have responsibility to deliver the message. Your mother is gone. Condolence and lets move on! Here the documentation of your mother business, the location, the paperasset and this the envelop that i never open. Take it." ...

he added

"From now on, i work with you. Don't worry about the payment. Its all has been paid earlier before the war. If you want the rest of the documentation, come by my office" Said the lawyer, and he left.

"Thank you, will talk to you more soon." Replied LisaSurihani,
with still questioning and surprised. Nadia never mention about the lawyer
 
LisaSurihani take the file home and spend the rest of the night reading the agreement and analyzing. it is a bunch of valuable papers.
Then the open an envelop that was stamp with "Private & Confidential". It's a HQ details. The name of the location, the leader, members and associate. LisaSurihani couldn't tell if they all still alive.

 
She read further and notice the address is there. In Ballard, Seattle. 

 LisaSurihani decided it was time and use the money that she have for Seattle as written on the document, LisaSurihani confidently believe that it is the time to go make her mark and get in with this crew that her step mother was in. However, she doesn't know the actual business that the crew was running. She knows how to run a business, it's all about the good cash flow, Good money, but she never expect be involve with even bigger business than that. 

To be continue ... 

As LisaSurihani walk out of the plane in Seattle from Las Vegas, she did not expecting to see anybody standing there waiting for her in the terminal. Instead there was a guy wearing black suits and fedora hats. He beckoned LisaSurihani to come forward, and she straight away new something had happened to the woman that adopt her. As Lisa walked towards the man, the grins on his face became more welcoming and LisaSurihani knew that she is not in trouble in a new place for her in Seattle. The men whispered to her.

"Greetings Ms.Lisa welcome to Seattle, I get a call from your lawyer in Las Vegas that i should lead you the way, i'm friendly. Lets take a walk" 

Lisa had no specific plan as she just arrived. One of the other men that she didn't see earlier offer to handle her luggage bag and led her towards the exit of the airport. As she walked out, she could feel the cold Seattle air hit her face. It sent a shiver down her spine and made the hairs on her neck stand up and Lisa at this point realizes that things didn't look to good.

As Lisa start to notice that they were leading her down a back ally, it dawned on her that she was in a serious amount of danger. However, it just on her mind, They lead Lisa from the back door to upstairs and show me the room. 

"Well Ms.Lisa, This is not a pleasant place to stay but right now you can't choose the place you desire. you must be tired. Take a night off and we will see you tomorrow. Someone want to meet you to discuss of some matter about your step mother, Nadia. Good night" Said the unknown man.

"Erm what is this all about?" Lisa curiously ask. 

"It's a business matter, surely you get the idea when i say that, i will have my guard on standby near coffee shop down stairs to look after you"

The man who welcome Lisa from the airport doesn't say a word just nods to his men and they left her alone, it is well planned. A take away food, some snack and fruit is on the table. It doesn't seem look like a bad place to live, Lisa has live far more uncomfortable life in flower shop basement and the street was where Lisa learn how to thrive and take manner lesson.  

On the next morning, Lisa look down the street of Seattle from her room window. The scenery of the ocean and the port makes her think that this city is a highly productive area. It's 8:15am, most citizen are busy with their daily routine. As the man who pick her up in the terminal yesterday said, they going to come to pick me up this morning. Lisa doen't know what their intention. 

After half an hour, the door was knock several time. Lisa approach the hole on the door to check who is knocking outside, clearly it's him, the man who pick her up yesterday with his two other man. Deep in LisaSurihani mind "why do they even need to have so many people to take me out?" 

"Lisa, let's go to the tailor. Over there, you choose your suits according to our criteria." Said the man. 
While he scanning my appearance from top to bottom. 

"Oh, okay. Why? is the way i dress right now isn't proper enough? What is this all about?"Ask Lisa. 
"Who is the man who you said he is a friend of my step mother?" She added.

The man stare at me for a second before continue speaking again, he calmly say. 
"Lisa, we know who you are. We heard story about you from your step mother. Now she has passed away honorably for her family and she has leave all the matter to you. We going to get you a suitable suit for tonight occasion. It is the opening of the new bar in Ballard, the boss will be there and i am a person who responsibly assigned to make sure you sees the boss." 

Lisa did't expect that her journey to meet a family that her step mother was involve is going to be this easy, It was arranged earlier by her step mother Nadia. To make the matter easier for Lisa. However she is still young and need to start from the bottom when she is get her work with the person that she going to meet up tonight.

They hit the black jaguar on the road and heading to the downtown. 
As they arrive at the boutique, Lisa getting her mind wild with all the suit and dresses. 
She had a chance to pick the dress for free of charge.
