Renèe

I'm Renèe Yung, I'm a 24 year old mother of a 6 year old daughter named Brianna Yung. I'm blasian (half Black, half Asian) my mothers black and my fathers Asian. I grew up in America my whole life and I've never in my life of living went to my fathers side of the family, why? I also dont know, my father never really told me.

I've been struggling on putting food on the table because I haven't found a job yet. I've been putting in my CV's in all these businesses and I'm always rejected if not they won't call me back. Brianna stays with my parents due to my condition.

I'm now at Walmart buying a few things like toiletries and a few food items just to go for a week.

"Candice I'm desperate man I really need a job, like ASAP no Rocky." I say over the phone. I was talking to my bestfriend and she is loaded with cash and she's been willing to lend me some cash but I dont want to depend on other people for my well being.

"Renèe you know you dont have to work?" I frowned confused.

"What do you mean I dont have to work?" I asked.

"I'll be your provider. I'll provide for you and Brianna. I hate seeing you struggle. When was the last time you saw Brianna?" She asked.

"Last night." I reply pushing my cart going to the snack aisle.

"I mean literally." She said annoyed.

"On her sixth birthday." I say disappointed.

"And when was that?" She asked.

"January." I replied looking at a bunch of snacks wondering which one I'll take.

"And what month are we on now?"

"April." I finally decided on what I wanted and that was packet of Doritos and 2 packet of Lays and 2 chocolate bars and a packet of sweets. I then pushed my cart going to the toiletries aisle.

"Can you stop being stubborn and selfish and just take this money and be with your daughter?" I then stopped right in my tracks, yes I'm a stubborn person but she out of all people would know that I am not selfish.

"Okay let's get this straight  I an not selfish, and..." Candice then cuts me off.

"At this point you are selfish, you not thinking about Brianna and her needs you only thinking about yourself!" Did she really shout in my ear, I can believe her.

"Listen here miss goodie two shoes I wont let you tell me how to run my life and what's good or bad for Brianna she is my child and I'll raise her however I want okay? And I will find a job then bring Brianna back and by doing that I wont be needing your help so have a nice day!" I furiously hung up the phone, putting it in my jean jacket. I could feel people's eyes being heavy on me.

I calmed myself before I could continue with what I came here to do. As i was going to take my first step i felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and a man who was thick like really thick and had dread locks with a bunch of tattoos he smiled at me then he patted his lips open.

"Uhm I'm sorry but I couldn't help but hear that you looking for a job." He said.

"And who are you?" I asked with an attitude.

"I'm Hood. As I said..." He was disrupted by a man with red hair, well he was basically red from head to toe.

"Ayo Hood I've been looking..." He stopped when he saw me. "Hello ma'am I'm Red." Haaa what a name.

I fell in love with my maid.Where stories live. Discover now
