When Andrea received a phone call from her parents in the Missouri, she was partly scared, partly surprised.
She was working in New York, trying to find a way to start her activity of fashion designer, at that moment just stuck as shop assistant of a goth shop that was searching someone young and beautiful.
And she was. Both of them.
Tall, well equipped, as lot of men said to her as a compliment, long red slightly curly hairs, a wonderful and smiling face and an unnatural propensity for high heels. but she was not liking her job, although the shop owner and her daughter, the other shop assistant, were nice and friendly.

"No, no, quite the opposite. We wanted to tell you before you would find it on the news. You know my little mania?" he was trying to stay calm, but his voice was betraying a strong emotion, a strong good emotion. In the background, her mother voice was sort of muffled giggles and sighs.
"Which one?" she giggled also, knowing he was referring his mania to buy every week a lottery ticket around the several ones in the USA.
"Exactly that one you was thinking. And guess what? We won!"
"Whaaaaat? You won the lottery?"...
