The Vow Of Convenience

☆●~CHAPTER I

[POV]

Last night was a heavy one where my friends really pissed me off by making me tired! I had no idea they would appear out of nowhere and startle me.

They came into my home as if it were their own, paying no attention to anything I said. They stayed at my house for roughly five hours, and I was tired afterward.

My eyes were happily closed as I lay in my soft bed, and I really did not want to get up. Not giving a damn about other conflicts.

A knock on my house door startled me into slowly opening my eyes. I remained in my sleep until the person behind the door began loudly beating on my door.

I turned to go to the door in frustration.

It was my house owner who stood in front of me that gave me my first shock of the day.

My landlord exclaimed angrily as soon as he saw me, "When are you going to pay the rent!?"

"I... I will pay it after 4 days!" After four days, I was still unsure about my ability to pay my rent.

My life has been too much for me. Because of my continued education in college, I am unable to pay for my mother's urgent surgery, which is necessary due to her cancerous condition.

My mother and I only get food from the part-time jobs I do. In addition, I have been living in this house for the past 2.5 years, and I have to pay the rent, but I have not been able to for the past two months.

My mother's house is a little bit away from mine. Although I would have preferred to stay with her, I had to move into a rented apartment due to the distance to my college.

I am a girl who, well, I think I am trying to, already handles the household bills.

It really annoys me that I can not find a part-time job that pays well because of my age, but since I am only 22 years old, I have no other options.

"You are no longer required to pay rent! For the previous two months, you had been refusing to do it, so I had to sell the house to someone who was paying me twice as much." My jaw dropped in shock at what the house owner said, and my eyes widened.

"What?" I yelled in shock and disbelief because I did not think the words I had heard earlier were true.

"As the owner, I own the right to sell this house to whoever I choose, so it no longer belongs to you, as it never did!" With scowled eyebrows, the owner spoke.

His words continued to reverberate in my ears while I remained stunned.

"The new owner of this house will arrive by 2 pm, so pack everything and leave by then." He said, then abruptly left me speechless.

I broke down on my knees with my mouth open, still refusing to accept the reality that I was now homeless.

My mother's house is not ours, so I was unable to visit her. In reality, my mother resides in the home of one of our aunts, who is likewise not a very wealthy person. To help my mother with the cost of groceries, I have to send her money every time.
