I wish I died...

"Nee... san...? W-what d-do y-you m-m-mean?", she stuttered.

To which her cousin gave of a hysterical laugh.

"I mean what I said. You wanna see the contact number?"

"..."

Ayane looked down, terrified.

"What do you want?", Ayane asked out of desperation.

"You know, I have been always short on monthly allowance. I am a busy girl, having dates and stuffs... so it would be good for you to 'lend' me some money, right?"

"..."

"And also, you can't tell your mom, you hear that?", said Sakiko, crossing her legs and assuming a position as if she were a queen.

"...okay."

Ayane got up to go to her room to get the money that she had been saving up by working on a part-time job, when she heard a voice.

"I need a minimum of 200 dollars monthly.", Sakiko added, as Ayane was going to her room.

Ayane looked back at her with a sorrowful expression,"But I don't have that much. I-I can't afford it."

Ayane was losing her monthly allowance as well as her money saved up by working. And she can't even tell her mother. Her heart broke and her voice was trying to hold back its cry.

"Do I look like I care?", Sakiko added, before she got another nasty idea.

"Well, maybe I do. Let me help you a bit.", she said, before she got up and hugged Ayane from the back.

"I know a fat guy in our class who has money and was looking for a girlfriend. How 'bout this, I hook you up with him, you become his girlfriend, let him enjoy you and pay you for it? It seems to be a good deal to me.", she whispered into her ears.

"If she accepts this... her life will be officially ruined...", she thought with a grin.

Ayane looked at her with a confused and a somewhat disgusted and scared look. Before she shook her off from her back and built up her courage.

"I don't need it. I can manage it for myself.", she said, kinda scared.

"Tsk...", Sakiko exclaimed, "Then bring me the 200 of this month."

Getting up to her room, Ayane somehow managed to get barely 200 from the saved up cash, her allowance and the spare changes she found in her backpack and her wallet.

"Here is your 200.", she said, as she handed her the momey.

"Don't worry, I will not break my promise.", Sakiko said with a evil smile, before leaving the house and closing the door.

She heard the door close when she was at the living room, before she fell down on her knees.

"... what did I do to deserve this..."

Out of spite, anger, sadness, she gripped the beautiful blonde hair of her head in an attempt to tear it apart out grief, but the pain got the best of her, as she let it go eventually. She is now at a loss of how to live the month without any money. She had to now, basically starve herself after she finished the food that was in the fridge.

"I wish I died...", she said, as the lied flat on the ground, looking at the ceiling, not knowing what to do.
