Trouble in Paradise ||Karma Akabane| [INDEFINITE HIATUS]
19 parts Ongoing I was never well off in life, quite the opposite. Every dollar came from hard work, I barely got to enjoy the luxuries everyone else took for granted, falling asleep in front of the TV while watching your favorite show, going to the mall just because you want a new outfit, sleeping in on a weekend and taking things easy all day.
For me I only got to fall asleep while sitting on the kitchen counter, worrying about next month's bills, I stressed over buying new clothes but a pair of jeans can only get so many rips in them, and weekends were even harder than the weekdays, stores were busier, more people were out and about leaving less time to get my thoughts together while at work.
I found myself blaming my mother even though it wasn't her fault. It's not like she decided to get cancer and decided she was too sick to work only leaving me, a high school student, to drop out and start work early. It didn't matter anymore though, she was dead, and as cruel as it sounds, now I don't have to stress about hospital bills.
As a high school dropout it was difficult to find good jobs, leaving me to work multiple minimum wage jobs at once. All hope seemed lost to me but a small glimmer shined through the clouds when I heard of an opening as a maid at the mansion on the rich side of town. It was the highest paying job I've ever qualified for and after listening to the rumors of how the owner is a psychopath, I figured I wouldn't have much competition for the spot. Whether that would be for better or for worse in the end.
