Evelyn's story is about her father, who became the fanciest of hobos.

Evelyn is 12 years old. Her family was doing fine until recently. They had plenty of money and a big beautiful house. Evelyn's parents adored her. Dad called her Princess and Mom was so gentle and kind. Their housemaids lived in the same house, in their own rooms. In the evening, the family would often gather in the spacious saloon and they'd all tell stories and laugh together. Evelyn's dad would often come home late because he worked so much. He wanted his daughter to have everything. Their kitchen always smelled nice and their cooks would always prepare tasty treats. On weekends, Evelyn's parents' friends and business partners would visit them and she'd play with their children.

Evelyn's mom and dad worked together. They ran a fashion enterprise of their own. They would always say how proud they were of their shared business and how it made them even closer to each other. Mom studied to become a fashion designer and then she started creating collections for women of various social statuses – that is, for everybody. Later on, she created children's wear, for little girls. She'd use little Evelyn as a model to design amazing collections. Evelyn never made a fuss about other girls showing off her clothes. She knew she was always the first one to wear the prettiest outfits.

Then, Dad got involved in the business as well. He became Mom's muse and later her partner. They kept expanding their enterprise and they worked really hard for their success. The family started traveling worldwide as their designs garnered attention. Evelyn participated in big fashion shows in cities like Milan or Paris. Every girl envied her outfits and many of them commissioned clothes from her parents. There wasn't a woman in the town who didn't know about their designs. Evelyn's parents treated everyone kindly and they gladly helped their customers select an outfit for any kind of job or celebration.

Of course they could stop there and be content with their good work so far. But one night, Dad's old friend came to visit him. He was a very pleasant man and Dad was delighted to see him. They talked until early morning. After breakfast, they all went to the office together. Next evening, Evelyn heard her parents talk about expanding their business and teaming up with Dad's friend.

Evelyn spent most of her time alone now. Her parents were busy all the time: they'd go abroad for supplies, recruit new employees, or expand their production facilities. All they talked about at home was work, business, new collections, and recent shows. The best fashion designers worked for the enterprise. They were swamped with commissions and everyone was happy.

Then, disaster struck like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. The entire enterprise was bankrupted and closing down. Strangers were walking around the house and talking to everyone and searching for things and taking away computers and documents. Evelyn didn't recognize her own father: he became thin and hollow-cheeked, his face went grey, his eyes sunk in, and his gaze didn't radiate warmth like it used to. Mom cried a lot. She tried to hide her tears from Evelyn but of course the little girl understood something terrible had happened.

Their former friend and partner had been arrested. He had been involved in dishonest business before and he was guilty of a huge embezzlement. He used Evelyn's family to clear it off. Their property was seized and they ended up on the streets.

Dad was arrested for a short while but they never proved him guilty so they set him free. All of their friends turned their backs on them. The family found refuge in a tiny apartment with Mom's distant relatives. Dad flat-out refused to start again from square one. He was crushed by the betrayal and humiliation he had gone through. He's stooping lower every day. He spends his nights in basements and his mornings at dumpsters. His fashionable clothes quickly got dirty and eventually he refused to wash or wear clean clothes at all. He wears garish, mismatched castoffs that he finds in dumpsters now. He calls himself "a fancy hobo". People who see him on the street probably have no idea that it's the same person who used to outfit the entire town.

Evelyn and her Mom still hope their life will turn around one day. Mom knows her husband well and she's sure he'll realize that this kind of life isn't going to make things better. Dad is good at his job and he's not deterred by any kind of work. As soon as he gets himself together, the family will surely push through. What matters right now is that they're all alive and well.
