The doctor has prescribed drugs for her but we can't afford to buy it because of we can't afford it. My siblings, Christine and Christian has been taking care of her while I go out to hustle. Now they carry long faces showing fustration. My mother's health hasn't improved at all and things are extremely hard. My father is jobless and not helping as the head of the family. He either goes out and come back home late and druck or he stays at home all day giving complains about us and our situation. As much as this annoys me, I still don't have the courage to caution him and remind him about his responsibilities towards the family. My mother being the only one that talk sense into him is too weak to even talk. Our state is more like that of a church rat. Even less. We barely eat thrice a day, school is a different case all together. I drop out of high school, almost done with it but I

Almost at our house, I saw my mother leaning out against the door. She was talking to a man. She look so weak. I wonder how important the conversation is that she had to come out in her weak state. Then I glanced at the man she was talking to. He looked familiar but I couldn't make out of it because he was facing my mother and I can only see his back. But the familiarity is strong. 'Who is that with mother? Christian asked curiously "I don't...." I was cut off by Christine. "Shit! That's the landlord! Gosh what is he saying to mum?I ran towards them with my siblings following from behind. I know how annoying and frustrating the man can be. I don't want him stressing my mother or even worsening her condition.I reached them and my mother looked relieved to see us. I was right. He was stressing her. I felt angry about this.

Jones POV"Ruby!" I yelled out her name but she ignored me walking away angrily. I definitely know how she can be when she is angry. I ran following her till I was able to get a hold of her hand."Calm down baby geez" I said trying to sound as apologetic as I can"Get your damn hand away from me Jones" she snapped grabbing her hand away from my grip. She is way too upset with me."Who do you think you are huh? What exactly do you take me for?" She was looking at me with those cute green eyes filled with anger and I think love. Don't blame me, she is mad at me but she is also madly in love with me."Baby please" I put my palms together pleading. "I am so so so sorry okay? I didn't mean to keep you waiting. Just don't..."Don't give me shit Jones" she cut me off. I sighed."We haven't seen each other for the pasted damn weeks. I agreed to this freaking date thinking that you will do better but yet you made it worse by coming late?!Do you think am a ball or something you can play with

Did he just... Am I hearing things?"Um... Sir are you serious? He smiled and said "I am" he put his hands inside his drawer and brought some money. "Here's the advance and a little more for the help you gave me today" I was still shocked, I never saw this coming. He is actually offering me a job and paying advance geez, aren't that a miracle?"Here you go" he said handing me the money. I couldn't help but stare at it in his hand. That was more than enough, I could pay the rent and use the remaining for something else. How is it that I made the money for our rent in a day? double OMG!"Aren't you going to take it?"Oh!"I snapped out of my thoughts and collected the money but still couldn't believe it. This man was a not only nice but generous too."Thank you very much sir, you don't know how much you helped me, am so so grateful sir!" I knelt down before thanking him, I thought good people were scarce in this world but I was wrong.But this was too much. I helped him just a day and h
