JUST RENT ME

Willow sat on the floor of the ward in the hospital as she looked at her pale palms. "I need more time," she whispered to no one in particular as she tried to think of solutions to her problem."Willow"Her grandmother's frail voice called causing her to scramble to her feet and run to her side. "Yes, grandma?" Willow replied curtly. The old woman smiled at the young girl and raised her hand. Willow quickly took it. "Grandma please don't stress yourself," she said to her. The old woman chuckled and smiled again. "I am supposed to be telling you that, my love. Don't worry about me, Willow. Go to school, I'll be fine," she said to her. Willow shook her head. "I don't want to leave you, grandma," she said as she held onto the woman's hand. "I'm too tired to argue with you, child. Go back to school and study. I'm pretty sure you are meant to be in a class at the moment," her grandmother said. "But who will take care of you while I'm gone? Your hospital is so far away from me," Willow sa

"I thought you had a class by five, this is already six thirty," Nathan said to Chase as they walked into a diner. "The lecture called it off and now I have free time to myself. Let's order something greasy for ourselves," Chase said and went to sit at an empty booth. Nathan rolled his eyes at his best friend and went to sit across him."I pray to find a cute chick here," Chase mumbled. "Shut your dirty ass mouth," Nathan glared at him and he grinned in response. "You need to get laid, bro. Crystal will soon make you run mad with the way she's chaining you down," Chase laughed.Nathan was about to reply him when they got interrupted. "Good evening, can I take your order?" They looked up to see a girl standing there with a notepad. The girl's eyes widened a little and her cheeks reddened when she saw them and took a step back."Willow! I didn't think I'd find you here," Chase said as he recognized her. Willow smiled at him, "Neither did I? what brings you here?"Chase shrugged with a

It has been two days since that incident and Willow had become a shell of herself. She tried her possible best to be in the shadows and was able to get a pass to leave work early in order to avoid the incident happening again."You space out a lot, why?"Her head turned to see Eve looking at her with a frown. "Sorry, I was just feeling tired. That's all," Willow mumbled. Eve raised a brow and pointed at their unfinished homework. "You promised to help me with my law assignment," she said. "You and I are not studying the same thing, Eve," Willow rolled her eyes. "But you made me follow you to the library," her best friend pouted. Willow sighed, "I said we'd do our assignments together. Not that I'd help you." "But you still read those textbooks about law in your free time," Eve argued. "Doesn't this girl ever rest?" Willow thought to herself with a small smile. "Eve, you need to use your brain sometimes," she pointed out. Eve scoffed and waved her off. "I use it all the time but I wa

Nathan looked at his phone with an absent mind. Why did he propose that plan to her? What the hell was he thinking? He rolled his eyes and scrolled through his Instagram feed like the jobless person he was.She was the best option. "Hey," the low yet audible voice made him look up from his phone to see Willow standing there with a shy smile. She was dressed a light blue sun dress that stopped below her knees and her hair was packed in a half-up ponytail making her look as cute as ever."I thought you were going to ditch me on our first date," Nathan commented with a grin as she took her seat across him. Willow rolled her eyes and placed her small white purse on the table. It has been a week since she agreed to that plan. They hadn't met since that day and the was their first meeting."Why did you send me that money?" she asked him when she was settled. Nathan's grin widened, knowing that was what she was going to say. "I presume you haven't heard of a signing bonus," he said and she

"That's not how you pronounce it, Eve," Willow sighed as she rubbed her temples. "It's not my fault," Evelyn whined and sighed before closing the dictionary. She didn't even know why she decided to read the dictionary. They were at the cafeteria eating and also working on their assignments. "Why did you even decide to open a book you can't even comprehend?" Willow raised a brow at her, which earned her a glare."Don't you dare try to insult my intelligence. I can understand the dictionary," Eve pointed a finger at her and Willow chuckled. "Just give me your chicken already," she said. Eve rolled her eyes and pushed her plate of half-eaten chicken towards her. "I'm convinced that you love chicken more than you love me," she mumbled with distaste. Willow waved her off as she bit into the seasoned meal. "I spend more time with you, my love," she said with a chuckle and Eve rolled her eyes again."That your laughter will soon be your last."They turned to see Crystal standing behind the
