Beli's POV

Later that night, I have finally completed all of my homework. I look at the time on my phone, it was 9:45pm. Below the time, I see a few messages from Queenie.

Queenie👑:

Where are you?

When are you coming?

Are you even coming?

Caleb is here, message back ASAP

Beli?

Hey, sorry I couldn't make it xx

Of course you can't!

Sorry, parents are strict plus I had lots of homework

Fun! Got left on read!

"Beli!! Get your ass in here now!!" Mother shouts.

I quickly get up and made my way to mother who was holding an open can of beans.

"Here's dinner" she slams it down on the bench.

I've always loved beans. Mother only feeds me this when she's about to go to work, which is all the time.

What does my mother work as? I'm not sure...

"Thanks, mother" I pick it up, she then gives me a spoon. I say thanks again before sitting down in the dinning room.

"You gave her fucking beans again?!" Father shouts.

"I need to go to work, Marco!!" She screams.

"You have a shit j-"

"We need the money!" She whines.

I sit there eating my can of beans looking at the two.

"She needs to eat real food" Father says calmer.

"Why don't you cook, huh? Plus she ain't complaining" she shot back.

He stays silent, he looks at me.

"Food is food" I shrug.

"Yeah and so is money but we all thirsty for that" he shakes his head disappointedly.

"I'll see you all tomorrow" mother says.

"Bye" I say.

Father doesn't say anything.

As soon as she left, he says, "your mother is a pain in the ass"

I look at him as I bring the spoon to my mouth.

He then takes a seat in front of me, "I'm gonna invite some chicks over. You better stay in your room and be quiet, okay? You understand, right?"

I mentally roll my eyes, "isn't that cheating?"

"I'm getting paid to fuck em. $100 per chick and per hour. There's gonna be 4 of em. Plus, your mother cheats on me all the time" he tells me.

I nod not knowing how to reply.

"Quickly finish that up, they could be here any minute now"

"Is mother a hooker?" I randomly ask.

"Took you long enough to figure that out" he shakes his head.

"I can get a job if we're really desperate for money"

"You are not going to be like your mother, okay? You have a chance to succeed, Beli"

"I didn't suggest to be a hooker. I can just work at the hair dressers or I could be a waitress" I say.

"Or both" he stands up and stretches.

"Yeah" I smile.

"Never do that to me ever again" he says referring to my smile. The door bell rings thrice.

"That's them. Get in your room and stay there"

"Okay" I did what was told.

I lay there in bed awkwardly. My phone vibrates a few times, I pick it up.

Caleb🤖:

So you pussied out?

Honestly came to this party for you....

Sorry, parents said no

Right....

I'm being honest
Wait weren't you grounded?

Goodnight.

I sigh. I place my phone back on the nightstand and decided to go to sleep.
