Angel’s Hour of Bondage

By Clarice Carolyn Herring

My beautiful dear Angel take my hand and let’s share a life of love. I miss you so much and I am miserable without you. Give me your address and I will send you money, I buy you fowers and give you the world. Angel, please come back to me. My heart is empty and I need you.

“Jack, I was on the computer and I saw the contract between you and my mom. That explains why you pay mom’s bills and give her $500.00 every day. This is an exchange for my having sex with you.”

“Yasmine, we have a relationship and I love you.”

“My name is Angel, you named me Yasmine. I can’t do this anymore with you. I’ve been pregnant twice, tried to kill myself multiple times and I hate having sex 7 times a day. I want out!”

“Yasmine, I mean Angel, my love for you is real. Our arrangement can’t be broken. You and I gave vows. Angel, you can’t leave me.”

“Yasmine, I overheard the conversation between you and Jack. Yasmine I’m your mother and I would never contract you for sex. What are you talking about, there is no contract.”
