Start from the beginning
                                    

Then shut the door, I knew if I let her talk she would told me to focus on my school, but I need to do this. I got in the car and shut the door, I started the car. I started pulling away when I saw my mom getting out, but I was already on the streets and drove away. I had no Idea where I was going. I parked in a empty parking lot, I rest my head on the wheel. what am I going to do? maybe I can work on the store I work in the summer…. I’m not sure if they need anyone through.. ugh! I got my phone, maybe I should sell my phone.. it’s not like I’m gonna use it anyways how will I pay the bills?

 I sigh and looked through the contacts. Should I call Rick? mm.. maybe Nancy… then Abby came in mind.. sure I was there just a hour ago or so.. but she has rich parents maybe I could ask her for a job.I turned off my phone and I started the car, made my way to the her Hotel. I got out the car and took a deep breath and went inside. I went up till I was in front of her room, I sigh. here goes nothing… I knocked once then I waited.. no one answered. well I guess she isn’t here I’ll just g-

She opens the door and looked surprised

“I thought you said we were going to meet on sunday or monday?”  she said looking confused. I went in the room and sat on the bed.. I couldn’t say it..

“um okay um yes, have a seat” she said closing the door and sitting down on the bed too. I sigh

“I need a job” I choked out, she looked shocked

“why?”  

“my mom lost her job and she having a hard time looking for one and she burst out crying, she started saying how she failed me and Emily. She can’t find anyone to take care of Emily and I d-don’t kn-know what to d-do! I- I do-don’t even k-know if I can k-keep up with a j-ob and s-school. But i-if I don’t get a j-job we gonna e-end in t-the st-streets a-and I j-j-jus” I began to take deep breath then I started feeling my tears fall out that I been holding in since home, I didn’t want my mom seeing me like this. I had to be strong for her, even when I’m not.

I felt Abby got closer and hugged me around my shoulders, I wrapped my arms around her waist and buried my face in her hair and cried. I don’t know how longer we stay like that, but all I know I cried so much my eyes were red and puffy. I finally stop crying and wipe my eyes, then looked at Abby. She smiled at me, it wasn't a sad like for pity. She just smile

“you okay now?” she asked, I laughs softly and nodded. She got up and went to one of her drawers, what is she doing? then I saw her coming back and next to me.

“here.. it’s about nine hundred dollars, I’m not sure how much you pay there.. but I hope this is eno-”

“whoa! Abby I can’t take this” I stared at her like she’s crazy. I push her hands away

“Axel you really need the money, I’ll get you a job here in the hotel for now take the money” she shoved the money in my hand.

“Abby I can’t tak-”

“where are going to go? look do it for Emily, if you want I’ll get your mom a job as a maid here or something so you can just stay in school and Emily, your mom can bring her here and I’ll take care of her for free. I could really use a friend around here… come on for Emily” I stared at the money.. Emily, I want the best for her.. I sigh and nodded

“okay, but I’m gonna pay you back” Abby giggled

“I don’t need money, silly. I have about three-thousand in my drawer” my mouth drop

“you do!?” she nods

“my dad always gives me and my sister fifty dollars every month, I always save them so don’t worry about it” she says
