Fifteen Minutes That Saved Jordan

A kid in my class paid fifty students cash just to stand in his living room for fifteen minutes.

Jordan was shaking the whole time, terrified his dad would come home early from the casino.

The house was empty because his dad gambled away the furniture money. Suddenly,

headlights flashed. Everyone ran, but I froze at the window and hit record. I filmed his dad

beating him and his sick mother over the missing cash. I took that video

straight to the police. The dad got eighteen years. Jordan is safe now,

and seeing him finally smile without checking the clock was worth way more than fifty bucks.
