Contracted boyfriend

it was a cold chilly Saturday morning. Ariana, a young black girl of 16 left her home early and headed to her workplace. She delivered milk and newspapers in the morning. After that, she worked part-time at a coffee shop. In the evening she worked at the gas station. Evening came quickly and she rounded up her day's pay and happily headed home. Ariana had to work everyday and even during school days just to raise money to pay her mom's hospital bills.Her father died recently. While he was alive, he made sure that her brother and her attended the best schools in the city.After he died, her mother fell ill and her brother had to drop out of school. She has been working her ass off just to provide for her family."Mike I'm home!" Ariana announced as she opened the door and walked inside.Her little brother Mike ran to hug her. "big sister Ari!" he shriek excitedly. Ari hugged her little brother tight. She squatted down and kissed his forehead."How're you doing buddy?""I'm fine"."Did

Ariana woke up in the morning and continued her usual routine of delivering milk before heading to school. As she entered the hallway, she was shocked to find numerous photocopies of the letter she had written the previous day scattered everywhere. The letters asked for donations to help her family, and Ariana quickly realized that Nora must have found her letter and spread it around.Feeling a mix of embarrassment and fury, Ariana was approached by Casey and her gang, who walked over with a hint of mockery in their demeanor. "Here you go, charity case," Casey sneered, tossing a thousand-dollar bill at Ariana. The other rich kids followed suit, throwing money at her. Ariana had never felt so humiliated in her life. She wanted to slap Casey so hard but she refrained herself, knowing that such actions would only land her in trouble.Overwhelmed by tears, Ariana sought refuge in the restroom where she allowed herself to cry her heart out. She wanted to disappear and escape from school, bu

Ariana sat down on her usual spot as she inhaled the cool and calm fresh air. What she did back there in the classroom felt nice, she's happy she did that. She rested her back on the bench and closed her eyes. Now that she has those bitches a warning doesn't change the fact that she needs help. Her mother's condition is getting worst each passing day and of she don't get the money on time...she's afraid that her mother will be gone.What is she going to do, where's she going to get the money from. She's a $1000 short and she still spent money on the food and drugs. What is she going to do now?She felt a gentle tap on her shoulder and she opened her eyes and glanced at the person. It was no other person but Jeff. What is he doing here?"Hey" he greeted. Ariana hissed as she made an attempt to stand up but Jeff caught her hands."Excuse you, let go!" she yelled."God you're noisey, can we at least talk?" he pleaded."I have nothing to talk to you about"."I'm not letting you go till yo

"So why do you decided to pair with me?" Jeff asked as he took a sip from his cup of coffee."Cause I don't have a partner" Ariana answered."So tomorrow we'll be given the topic we're going to present in school and we'll meet here everyday to share ideas and discuss about it" Ari added."Cool. Can I have your number then?""Why?""We're going to be partners, I need your number just in case" he answered."Fine, your phone". Jeff handed her his phone as she quickly dialed her number on the phone and handed it back to him. Jeff smiled as he collected his phone. He called the number just to be sure if the number is hers. Ariana's phone rang inside her apron and Jeff's smile widened as he hung the call."See ya tomorrow partner" Jeff dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out the money to pay for the coffee. He dropped the money and left the coffee shop.Annie hurriedly ran to where Ariana is and she sat down. "So?" Annie asked."I hope that this is a good idea"."I'm sure it is".**

Jeff waited in the hallway in school but still Ariana didn't come out."Maybe she already left" he said with a sad tone. He waited a few more minutes but still, Ariana still did not show up. Just when he was about to leave, he found someone strolling in the school. "Hey excuse me?" he hurriedly ran and tapped the person's shoulder. Zach stopped in his traps and he turned around."Hey, sorry for disturbing you...have you seen any black girl. Actually have you seen Ariana? the girl you were talking to earlier this morning?""No" Zach answered and he left.Jeff paced around the hallway till he decided to go look for her in the bathroom.***********Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Ariana's heart pondered as fear gripped her. She never knew that anyone on this planet could do this to her. She doesn't want this, she just wanna go home and meet her family and she also want Jeff to walk her home this evening.The sound of belt unbuckling shook her out of her thoughts. She has to get out of here.
