"Please... please mum..." Eleanor kept pleading."Whatever, you better be home at a responsible hour and do not even think of getting pregnant out there. You still have at least a year left to graduate and I am not in any way financially buoyant enough to take care of you and a child out of wedlock." Her mum stated"Mum!! Come on have some faith in me." Eleanor uttered with her hands folded with creased brows."Didn't your best friend, Patricia's grandmother had faith in her before she ran off with some hoodlum from the streets? Well, I am not buying that faith shenanigans thing, just don't get pregnant." Her mum vehemently said."Fine mum, I will be back by 10:00 PM. Thanks mum, love you." Eleanor uttered, and no sooner than she said that did she run upstairs to get changed and to get ready for tonight's date with Sam. ******JOANN'S RESIDENCE(Door bell rings)Ding dong...Hearing this, a middle aged woman in her early thirties walks to the door and opened it only to meet a happy f
Samuelson and Eleanor got to a well decorated space at the back of a very expensive restaurant, it was previously booked by Sam for his date with Eleanor tonight."Wow!! This place is so beautiful Sam... did you do all of this for me?" Eleanor asked taking in the view."Yeah, this is for you, and for us tonight." Sam said proudly."Wow!! I love it so much it's so serene." Eleanor said still looking around."Glad you love it, I wanted to make our first date special... come on, let's eat." Sam said pulling out a chair for Eleanor to sit.She sat down and held on to the menu after scrolling through, she was confused and also the price tags were high so she didn't know what to do, she just kept looking at it."What do you want to order? Don't you like anything?" Sam asked."Well, actually the thing is, there are lots of delicacies on the menu, so I can't seem to choose from them, so you order for us Sam." Eleanor said smiling."Fine, waiter get us some pizza and soda, as for you Eleanor s
"Look who decided to come back home, and what was that you both were talking about financial differences?" Joann asked her daughter as soon as she got into the house."Mum come on, will you please give me some breathing space, you heard that too?" Eleanor asked getting agitated."Why wouldn't I? I am not deaf you know. So are you going to say something or would you rather, I asked Sam." Joann said."Mum, Sam is in love with me okay? The sooner you understand that the better for both of us." Eleanor said almost yelling."Whoa!! Look who got some nerve talking to me like that. Well, I have no business as to whether he loves you or not. And I don't care if his entire family accepts you. Keep in mind that we are middle class and we can't entangle ourselves with the high and mighty, okay? We are poor people we can't even afford a better life for ourselves I know that, but what I will not accept is if anyone who claims to love you does that out of pity, Eleanor James." Joann blurted out."M
"Hey Sam, good morning." Eleanor greeted as she hugged him affectionately."Good morning sweetheart, hope you slept well?" Sam said as they disengaged from their warm embrace."I did thanks, last night was amazing." Eleanor said.Natalie came right at this moment, 'What does she mean by last night was amazing? Did they do more than they should? Calm down don't assume things, Sam may see right through you.' Natalie thought."Hey Sam..." Natalie said."Hey Natalie, how are you doing today?" Sam asked."I am very fine." Natalie replied smiling."Hi Natalie." Eleanor said."Hi Eleanor, can I talk to Sam for a while?" Natalie said"Sure, you can... See you after music class." Eleanor whispered into Sam's ears. And then left hurriedly, she was getting pretty late for class."Come on, what is it Natalie?" Sam asked."Are we still on for later?" Natalie asked"Of course we are. We will be going to our favorite park later immediately after school." Sam said"Immediately after school, I thoug
"Mom..." Natalie said as tears streamed down from her eyes."Nathalie dear, what's wrong? What happened?" Magdalene asked worried for her daughter."Mom I can't take it anymore I just can't." Natalie said sobbing non-stop."Oh no, what happened to you, dear?" She asked yet again."It's Sam mom, he... he.. I love him mom, and all he ever does is go out with that low life, that tramp." she continues to sob uncontrollably.After calming her down a little, even though the tears kept flowing Magdalene sat down beside her and said,"Sweetheart let me get this straight. You are in love with Sam but then he is going out with someone else?""Yes." She conceded."Okay, whose daughter is she?" Magdalene inquired."He is going out with some low life, a nobody, a piece of trash. And he loves spending more time with her, he even ditched me for her today. Everything he ever does and thinks is Eleanor, Eleanor this... Eleanor that. Even when we are together he talks only of her." Nathalie uttered an
"Oh jeez, she is middle class of all things? Disgraceful, her mother poor and widowed? Preposterous, so they are terribly broke? What on earth is your son doing? Or was he bewitched by her so called beauty?" Magdalene uttered disdainfully."I have no idea what that son of mine is thinking entangling himself with those peasants, what do you suggest we do now Maggie?" Beatrice asked."I think we should both go over to her place today, and warn her to stay the hell away from your child and stop giving us a tough time. We already have plans for both our children and that is, they are to be engaged and married right after college, so as to merge our two businesses to become one. We can't just sit and allow some common girl with no good roots come ruin this for us you know. If they are still being stubborn we pay them off, after all they incurred a huge amount of debt on their heads, so I am sure she will take the money, they are filthy and uncultured sets of people after all." Magdalene sa
'How low I have sunk, okay... I have had enough of this insults from these old hags.' Joann thought and couldn't keep it cool anymore, she just couldn't stay calm so she just poured out her feelings there was no reason for her not to."Oh you should be talking to that uncouth and unattractive son of yours, and what was that you said about debts? They are my debts, not yours and I will definitely pay them with my hard work, so I do not need you to help me do that. I incurred the debts and I will pay them off without your help or imputes." Joann lashed out in rage."Don't be so stubborn and just take the money, it will help free you from your debt bondage and help transform your life a lot... you see, put aside your pride and accept it, I am sure it will last a lifetime for you both, just stop your daughter from talking to her son." Magdalene said."You came to my territory, into my home, and try to pay me off for what exactly? That ugly buffon you call a child? Get your facts straight,
"Sweetheart, please talk to me..." Sam said walking close to her while Eleanor glared at him with fury and yelled out loud,"Stay away from me Sam, just stay away from me... I don't want you to come close. Starting from this minute we are over." Eleanor lashed out."What? Why would you say that? No... no Eleanor please don't do this." Sam said pleading.Without saying anything else, Eleanor packaged her lunch box and was about to leave when Sam held her back by her wrist.But what happened next was unfathomable, she turned, wriggled out her wrist from his grip and slapped him hard across his cheek and said,"In the end that is what I am to you, a poor lady, middle class who is only after your wealth. I get it, starting from this minute, Samuelson Wyatt we are done.""What are you talking about Eleanor?" Sam asked in confusion, he has never said anything about such."Ask your mother, and starting from this moment, don't you ever act like you know me, we are now strangers." Eleanor tur
