My job wasn't hard, it was boring. But easy money, is great money right?

Ms. Lakes was a nice old lady who could really cook her ass off. She gave me this job when I was 15 and because she knew my mom, sometimes she invited us over for dinner every now and then. But today she was sick and I had to manage the store today.

It was me and another girl name kylie who worked here. Kylie was a college student and when she needs a few dollars sometimes she pops up here. She was cool and nice and she would always give me a ride back home when she was here. She was like a bestfriend to me.

Kylie looked at me and leaned on the wall."how's highschool gen? Any boys have you caught up?" She asked.

"No and you know that, im trying to get my mom and me out of the hood then I can find somewhere to think about these boys" I said nonchalantly.

She smiled and high fived me."preach baby,but listen if you want to make fast money there's a good job for you boo." She said handing me a card. "It's not stripping but it's better" she said.

I looked down at the card and the only word that was really significant was escort.

My mom would light fire to my ass if she saw this card.

I nodded and Kylie continues to talk. "I do it, you'll be nervous when you first get into it but then you'll get use to it."she said softly.

Hours passed and it was time to lock up the store. Kylie waited on me while I shut down the shop and she took me home.

Before I got out she said "whenever you decide on trying out for the job just tell me so I can drop you off at the place boo." and with that she drove off.

I went in the house to see my mom watching tv. "hey mommy" I said. "Hey baby, how was school?" She asked. "Fine"I said then I went to my room immediately taking off my shoes.

I huffed and put my phone on the charger and turned it on. My phone buzzed constantly from notifications from everyone.

14 missed calls and 8 new messages.

I rolled my eyes and called Maya back. She was the only person I wanted to talk to right now. I pressed the facetime button, and it said connecting.

"Hey geniiiiiii" she said with a smile. It looked like she was in a store. Then I saw some more people from school behind her waving at the camera.

"Where are you at?"I asked. She flipped the camera and showed everyone. Then I saw an unfamiliar yet familiar face....the new kid! But Jeremiah wasn't there.

"The mall, we invited you but you was ignoring people" she said with an attitude. "I was working t" I said sighing.

We stayed on the phone for about 30 more minutes until I decided I needed to get in the shower.

I got in the shower and washed my body. My thoughts began to pour in as I rinsed my body off.

Being an escort wouldn't be so bad. It's not like im a corner hoe or a stripper.

I shrugged at my thoughts and got out the shower. I wrapped my body with the towel and took my brush out and brushed my hair out.

My phone buzzed again but I didn't feel like checking on it. I felt like sleeping.

I changed into my bed clothes and got in bed checking my notifications. I had a message from an unknown number and 3 other ones from my friends.

Unknown number: genesis can we talk it's jeremiah.

My heart started racing. What did he want to talk about? I didn't want to talk to him but I want to hear what he has to say.

Yeah sure what is it?

My thoughts were piling up and I didn't want to go through that phase again. It was too much going on right now already.

Unknown number: I really miss you and I need to talk about it over the phone.

I sighed and instantly shot a text back.

I don't want to talk to you over the phone. I rather text so say what you need to..

I didn't want to get back together, jeremiah really crushed my heart and I'm not about to be depressed about a guy again.

Unknown number: well I been thinking and I miss how affectionate you were and I miss your beautiful ass. And I know I fucked up but let me make it up to you. I regret putting my hands on you and making you lose your first child but I really do love you.

I read the text about 6 times and my anger wanted to take over and tell him fuck him and I hated him but I couldn't. I just deleted the
conversation and tried to forget everything that happened.

Why do people always hurt the ones they "love"?  I asked God mentally.

I laid there for 10 minutes and drifted off to sleep.
