September 27 2022

A few days has past and everything was going well and peaceful for Desmond and Disha, His training has been going well, and Desmond and Bobby have been getting along with each other.

Right now, Desmond was ready to go to school as Lexy was putting on her shoes as Crowe was looking through his phone until he saw his mother walking towards him as she said something.

Jenna: Desmond, I need some change, Do you still have the savings I gave you?

Desmond knew that he had spended the money on the gym membership as Crowe spoke to her.

Desmond: Well, actually, I already spent fifty dollars.

Jenna: Really? What did you spend it on?

Desmond: The thing is, I started a gym membership, and I have been training for mma lately.

Jenna was shocked as Desmond continued speaking to her.

Desmond: I have been trying to save and pay the fees for next month.

Jenna: Seriously? So this is what you've been doing? You really like to throw your fist.

Desmond: Mom, look, Dont get me wrong, but I enjoy MMA, and I wanted to start training for it. I ain't trying to be some street thug. It's just that I love it.

Jenna: I had a feeling you like stuff like that, but don't you realise how important every dollar is us?

Desmond: We will figure it out, Mom. I found a part-time job that has a nice payment. I'm gonna apply for it and help you

Jenna: What? Are you gonna work at a fight club?

Desmond looked at her as Lexy was looking at them.

Desmond: Don't assume like that, Can't you appreciate that I'm trying to help you???

Jenna: And we are doing this all over again, You know what. I don't even care if you get arrested if you get in a fight!

Desmond felt hurt from the inside as He stared at his mother as she said something.

Jenna: You need to cancel that membership!

Desmond: No, I'm not gonna cancel it.

Jenna: I'm not gonna pay for that!

Desmond: Who said you're paying!?

Lexy: Please, can you two just stop already?

Jenna: Don't get involved!

Desmond: Hey, don't raise your voice at her!!

Jenna flinched and moved back as Desmond was trying to control his anger as he took a deep breath and looked at his mother.

Desmond: Can we just stop doing this? I don't care if it's hurting me, It's hurting her mostly.

He pointed at Lexy as Jenna was silent and looked at both of them.

Jenna: You should be more responsible, Desmond.

Lexy: What do you think he's doing? Of course, he's being responsible, but let him do what he likes to do-

Desmond: Lexy, It's okay. . . . We are going to school now.

Jenna was looking at both of them as Desmond stared at her before walking away as Lexy was going to follow him until Jenna said something to her.

Jenna: Lexy, Dont you realise what your brother's doing is completely wrong? Why are you still on his side?
