    Answer:

    There is a domestic helper in my locality. Her name is Geeta. There are six members in her family including herself. She has to look after his old parents, two brothers and a sister. Being the eldest among her siblings, the responsibility of the family falls on his shoulders. She is from a small village of Orissa. She works for fifteen to eighteen hours every day She gets fifteen hundred per month along with feeding and lodging. Geeta is a domestic helper in the house of Mr. Sharma, She has been working there for five years. Mr. Sharma is an executive engineer. He has five members in his family Geeta wakes up at 5 o'clock every day without failure. After sweeping and dusting she prepares breakfast and tiffins. She washes clothes and iron them. She also goes to the bus-stop to pick up the children. At 2 o'clock she starts preparing midday meal. She cooks delicious dishes for the family. In the evening she serves light meal like snacks, etc. along with tea to the family members. Sometimes Geeta doesn't want to get up so early. But she has to wake up because she is very much afraid of her Memsahib, who always shouts at her. Even children do not behave with her politely. Sometimes she feels hurt. But she keeps silence. She has to cam money at all cost to look after her family.
