"You can't just raise the rent with two hundred dollars out of the blue! That's outrageous!" I exclaim.
"I did send you a notice, Miss Morris," my landlord Mr. Harris scowls at me by the door and scratches his belly button. He reminds me of Peg-Leg Pete from Disney. "Inflation is a real thing after the corona. Everything is turning expensive, but I'm not a bad guy. I will give you two days to pay me the remaining money. That sounds fair, right?"
Mr. Harris knows damn well I can't magically get my hands on two hundred dollars in two days!
Frustration runs through my veins. I can't get rid of Mr. Harris and solve this problem now, but I know someone who can...
With slumped shoulders, I turn around. "Kinsley... would you mind?"
My daughter's face lights up from where she sits on
