hey Sophia! Can I ask you a question?
raises an eyebrow, smirking Sure thing, Wardeley. You better make it quick though, my feet are itching for a dance-off. winks
how did you get pregnant?
laughs sarcastically Oh, it's a crazy story, Wardeley. You remember Jake, right? The bad boy with the killer smile?
Well, one wild night at prom and—ta-da! Baby Rivera was on the way. rolls her eyes playfully
waves her hand dismissively Nah, don't act shocked, Wardeley. You know I've always had a weakness for bad boys.
but how'd you end up getting married? Weren't you only 17?
leans in closer, voice dripping with sarcasm Well, my parents decided they wanted a piece of the action too, you know? They pushed me towards the altar like I was some kind of pawn. But guess what?
smirks triumphantly I played them like the ring leader at a circus! I refused to marry Jake unless he agreed to some prenup terms.
leans back, crossing her arms Well, first off, no financial support from his family while we were married.
grinning Yeah, damn is right! And get this—no interference in our personal life.
that must've been so hard
laughs Hard? Please, it was a walk in the park, baby! I knew Jake couldn't resist me, so I used that to my advantage.
well, does he take care of you?
raises an eyebrow Take care of me? Are you kidding? Jake's too busy being Mr. Bad Boy and chasing after his next fling to worry about taking care of anyone but himself.
rolls her eyes Yea, tell me about it. Anyway, enough about Jake. Let's talk about you, Wardeley. What's new with you?
nothing much. Just working at the local coffee shop, trying to save up money to move out of my parents house
leans in, speaking in a supportive tone Well, babe, if I could give you any advice, it'd be to follow your dreams and never let anyone hold you back.
thanks, Sophia. That means a lot coming from you
winks No problemo, Wardeley! Listen, if you ever need a job or some help with rent, you know where to find me.
you mean that runaway house on Elm Street?
laughs Oh, you betcha! That place is my kingdom of chaos! Don't worry, Wardeley, you'll fit right in with the eclectic bunch living there.
