Chapter Text
"You're mental!" Tao screamed as he tried hard to not punch Harry Greene. Being suspended is the last thing he wanted her mom to hear from school.
His mom just got out of the hospital and they were paying off the debt they accumulated from her hospital bill.
Even though his mom is telling him to not worry, he couldn't. He sees her working double shifts and is looking for a 2nd job. If she keeps that up, she'd probably end up in a hospital again.
And Tao doesn't want that. Ever again. So he had been looking for a job. Making copies about being a tutor after school ad and pinning them on the board.
Which Harry just tore off. "I have a job for you." The rugby player declared.
"No, thank you."
"You need money, right?"
"Yes, not from you, preferably."
Harry laughed but mentioned an amount. And that amount is specifically what Tao needed and then some.
"I'll pay it in full."
"No. Piss off, Harry."
Tao was walking away when Harry said: "Fine. I'll see you in the hospital. For when your mom gets confined again from working too hard."
How did he know? How did Harry know about his mom? Tao was angry. He whipped back around and grabbed Harry by his collar.
"Are you sure? Giving your mom the news of your suspension wouldn't be good, yeah?"
Tao closed his eyes shut and his knuckles tight. Taking deep breaths. He has to calm down. "What will I do? What job are you gonna make me do?" Tao gave in. He loves his mom and they need the money.
"4 weeks. You will be mine for 4 weeks."
That phrasing didn't settle well for Tao. Mine?
What the fuck is he saying?
"4 weeks of what? What will I be doing?"
"Just come. It starts tomorrow." Harry takes out his phone and asked for Tao's bank details, sending the payment in one go. "Don't chicken out. I believe you have honor, yeah?"
Tao was kind of considering not showing up after getting the money but yeah, he has honor and will not definitely chicken out.
