"Jordan, I can't do everything by myself! I'm literally paying every single bill! It's not easy when you get paid every two weeks!"
"What do you expect me to do, Rae!?"
"GET A JOB! That's what I expect you to do! But, you can't even do that..."
"You don't think I'm trying?! What do you think I've been doing these past few months?!"
"Absolutely not shit! From the time I leave, to the time I get back...you're in here playing this stupid ass game! Sitting on your ass not doing shit!"
I grab my purse and keys off the table. I walk towards the door and open it. Then turn to look at Jordan.
"We've been living together for two years now. I've done everything since we've been here. Do me a favor. Help take the load off by getting off your lazy ass and get a job. You're obviously not trying hard enough. I'm going to work. Something you know nothing about." I say as I roll my eyes heading out.
As I sit in my car, I sigh to relieve myself of stress. Something he always makes me do. Maybe he thinks that's his job.
I'm starting to think maybe my parents were right. Maybe I should've listened to them. But, I just had to try and prove them wrong.
Going to school from 7:30 in the morning to 5:30 in the afternoon, then working from six to midnight isn't easy.
But, I kind of had no choice but to find a job since my parents decided to cut me off. But, that's another story for another time.
Jordan knows how stressful this is for me because I constantly get on him about it. I'm not that kind of person...but I've came to my wits end.
Jordan and I been together since I was fourteen. He was sixteen when we met. The way we met was kind of...not the way you'd expect to met your boyfriend of five years...

"When you're done with those papers, will you take these to the detention center? These are the assignments their teachers assigned to them..."
"Yes, ma'am. Will do. I'll be heading there shortly"
"Thank you."
I nod and finish sorting papers and folders. I grab the assignments and head towards the detention center. When I get there, I know so the door can be opened.
"Hey there, Rae"
"Hey, Mrs. Pam. These are the assignments the teachers have given...."
"You can send mines back..."
"Mr. Calloway. I'm not going to tell you again to be quiet."
I turn around and he mugs me. So, I mug back. I roll my eyes and turn back to Mrs. Pam.
"Is there anything else you'd like for me to do? I have time..."
"Oh, no darling. This will be all. Thank you though."
"You're welcome..."
I leave out closing the door behind me. I was barely down the down and I hear someone behind me. Come to find out, it's just that rude boy.
"Aye, cutie."
I continue to ignore.
"Hey..."
I still pay him no mind. He jogs up next to me and acts like I didn't try to ignore him.
"I just wanna know your name..."
"Didn't you just mug me less than five minutes ago?"
He was silent. He just looks down.
"I thought so. So therefore, you don't need my name..."
"That's fine. I didn't want your name anyways. Stuck up ass..."
"And my stuck up ass wouldn't most definitely waste my time with a prick, delinquent like you..."
I push him out of my way and head towards the office. Such a butthole...
•Flashback over•
But, that butthole turned in my man. He's sweeter than what he came off as. But of course, my parents didn't and still don't approve of him.
They have very high standards for me. They told me to either drop him or get cut off financially. I chose him. And until, I "come to my senses"...they'll leave me off. But, I don't mind working.
I don't mooch off of my parents like my sister does. Anyways! Back on track! I just need Jordan to man up and do what he's supposed to do. Because if this continues...our relationship just might come to an end.
