Chapter 19: Nice Sometimes, Mean Most of The Time

"Mom? What's wrong?" I asked when I found her reaction weird. "Mason is not my boyfriend or anything, if that's what you are thinking. I can't even consider him as a friend, although he was nicer than his friends." "His friends? What do you mean?" Mom asked, her brows furrowing. "Is it Ash and Haze?"

"Yes... But what, how did you know them?"

"It doesn't matter, but listen to me. Stay away from him," Mom warned as he held both my shoulders and looked me in the eye. "Avoid the Coleman family at all costs if you don't want your life to be completely ruined, and don't take my warning lightly. You don't know how powerful they are."

I was about to ask why, but I stopped upon seeing my mom trembling in fear... for something I couldn't decipher.

"Mom? What do you mean by that, mom?" I asked in a worried and confused tone. "Do you know something you're not telling me?"

"You don't need to do anything for you to follow me." She stopped walking for a moment before looking at me. Her tone was scary, as if she was threatening me with something I didn't know. "If I need to transfer you to another school just to keep you away, I'll do it."

"No, mom! You have no right to dictate what I should do!"

I couldn't stop myself from shouting because of what she just said. I suffered for so long at this University. Even if I felt like people looked down on me, I endured it. Why? Because I badly wanted to graduate from this school. I thought this was where I could change my life, but just because of Mason and Ash, she wanted to take away my dream?

I won't let that happen. Even if I needed to fight with my own mother just to achieve my dreams... I'll gladly do it.

"You're the one studying, but I'm the one paying for it, so I have the right to tell you what to do!" she shouted back. Her words felt like they stabbed me in the heart. "If I weren't working night and day, do you think you'd have extra money for your expenses? No!"

Does she even realize what she's saying to me right now? She doesn't know anything about my school... about the things I had to endure to graduate.
