Chapter 155 : Out of Money

“I’m sorry ma’am, but we can’t extend your credit line until you’re up to date with the overdraft fees,” the bank official on the line said, and I almost threw my phone against the wall.

“I’m afraid there’s nothing I can do,” she said, and I immediately hung up on her.

“I’m going to the Cosmic Spirit Retreat in Albuquerque,” was all she said. Something about finding herself and talking to her spirit guides or something crazy like that, leaving me with no way to pay the bills.

It was utterly outrageous.

I didn’t deserve to be treated like that.

And it seemed like everything was falling apart in a domino effect.
