CARMEN

I could feel blood rushing to my cheeks, my body burning with stress and anxiety.

I was tired of living life on the edge.

Living from paycheck to paycheck...

Barely keeping myself afloat.

I constantly felt like I was drowning.

Barely keeping my head above water.

And it was consuming me entirely.

I was so tired of carrying all this burden on my shoulders.

Life just felt so worthless to me sometimes...

Like I was so damn miserable, it didn't feel like I would ever have a life worth living.

"I'm sorry, Daniel..." I mumbled defeatedly. "I know how much your mother means to you. And I'm glad she's better now. But five-thousand? Do you understand what you're asking from me?"

I let out an exasperated sigh.
