Today was Friday and I had two more days left until I was off punishment. I hated when my mom treated me like a little kid because for one it was summer and it's not like I came home at 5am. Let her tell it, it was very disrespectful and rude. Aside from that bullshit I was happy that she let me keep my phone because I was able to talk to Brandon everyday. I was sort of clingy toward him because he was like my only friend. I needed to get out more, so I decided to apply for some jobs on indeed.

I cracked open my laptop and went to applying for damn near any position that paid 11 dollars and up. While I was applying for jobs, Brandon had texted my phone. I picked it up and read the notification from the Lock Screen, it read "I have a surprise for you". I blushed and immediately texted him back asking what it was but he wasn't letting up. So I gave in and just waited until he told me more details. After I finished doing job applications I closed my laptop and decided to watch some tv. It wasn't shit else for me to do since my mom had me on lockdown.

While I was watching anime, Brandon had called me. It was around 8 o'clock at night and I hadn't realized because I was too invested in my show.
"Hello?" I said into the phone once I picked it up
"What you doing sexy?" He asked me
"Watching anime, what was that surprise you was telling me about?" I pressed
"Damn can you calm down? I'm not revealing nothing until tomorrow" he told me
"You so aggy oh my gosh! I need to know like immediately!" I stressed to him
"You so dramatic but when tomorrow come you'll  know everything. I promise you that my love" he reassured me
"Whateverrrr but I love you, goodnight"
"I love you too my love, sleep good" he replied

We hung up the phone and I finished my episode and took my ass to bed. Ever since my mom put me on punishment I've been hella bored lately. Just being in the house surrounded by her miserable ass made me irritated. I wasn't going to let that stress me out any longer though so I went to sleep. When I woke up  I felt good, so since I was in a good mood. I thought today would be the perfect day to tell my mom that I was applying for jobs. Maybe she'll be happy to hear that I'll be doing something constructive rather than just partying and bullshitting.

I went downstairs and sat at the dining room table waiting for breakfast to be laid out. While everyone was at the table placing food on their plate I decided to start up the conversation.
"So um mom, I was on my computer yesterday and I decided to apply for jobs. Maybe me getting a job would help you out alot. With me having a job I can buy my own back to school clothes and supplies." I stated
"Jay I don't mind you having a job during the summer but once school start back you'll have to quit. I want you to be focused on school because this is your senior year and it's very important."
"But ma, how am I suppose to be pay for senior activities? We have prom, brunch, picnic and grad bash" I stressed to her
"You better start saving up if you plan on going then."
She continued eating her food and everything in me just wanted to flip the whole table upside down.

I didn't say anything after that because I knew how she was so I finished eating and got up from the table. I couldn't wait till somebody hired me because that meant I wouldn't have to be around her like that. When I went back upstairs, I saw that Brandon had texted me. It read "you'll finally get to see your surprise tonight. I'll be by at 11 o'clock to pick you up". Brandon knew I was on punishment so that meant he wanted me to sneak out. Honestly sneaking out was taking a chance but he was worth the risk. After everything he had done to me physically and emotionally I was willing to do almost whatever for him.

Later that night, I waited till my mom was asleep so I can start getting dressed. I really didn't know how to dress for the occasion because he still didn't reveal much. So I decided to slip into something cute but comfortable, when I was putting on my shoes I got a text saying he was outside. So I quietly made my way downstairs and slipped out the door. My heart was beating through my chest because I was really nervous. I was already on punishment but if she caught me I was definitely done for. I took deep breathes so I can calm my nerve a little and it kind of helped.
