Jane shouted as she entered the house
Liza looked terrible,she looked like she hasn't been sleeping well, but she still didn't want to tell her sister what she has done but she had to today

Jane knew something was eating her sister up inside and she was glad she finally wanted to open up
Liza didn't know how to tell her sister but she has to tell her

Last month he came to me and asked me to help him with money for his mother's surgery

I told him I had no money then he suggested that I should borrow and he promised to pay back but I haven't been able to reach him since then Liza said between sobs
Jane could not believe what she was hearing
Elizabeth how much did you borrow

Jane wished the floor would just open and swallow her, she wished the world would just end

She worked day and night so she could go to a decent school, ever since their parents died she had been the one catering for their needs

she couldn't believe Liza could do such a thing to her, who borrows one million for their boyfriend, was her sister that stupid

There is no way to find him
Jane tried to pull her self together
How much time do we have

Liza I hate you so much right now Jane said as she stood and left to her room

Liza couldn't help but cry, her sister hates her but she knew that she deserved it
where were they going to find one million in two days

It's been two days since Liza told Jane about the debt there was nothing they could do, the loan sharks would be coming for their money the next day but they still didn't have the money
At this point all Jane could think about was Aaron's proposal, she had nothing to lose now, she thought of it all night and came to a conclusion
