Lost Tempest Queen

Party Crasher

My mother was seething but she wasn’t about to show her hand more than she had to. Oh no your father didn’t mention it and you didn’t tell me sweetie. Mom I literally told dad yesterday and you weren’t home. Is it a problem that I have one person I know here? Unfortunately I am just not prepared to have extra people since we planned for the ones present already. Well mom I mean I don’t even know your partners so I feel like this one guest of mine should be acceptable.

She grits through her teeth trying to not lose her composure in front of the gathering crowd. Excuse me ma’am is there an issue with tonight? A man I have seen at every birthday party I have had. No Lace everything is fine I was just going over details with my daughter. He seemed upset about her response but didn’t dear speak again. Give us some privacy a minute please she asks. They walk away as if her order was law and they had no will to differ.

Once they left she looks over at Va Lara and asks how long do you plan on staying at my house? Mom I can’t believe you are being so rude to my friend. I look at Va Lara and tell her maybe it would be better if we celebrated My!! Birthday somewhere more inviting. My mom’s face morphing into anger and then a blank face like a cold stone emotionless killer. After all we have done to plan this night for you. You would leave over one person?

Yes mom I would like to celebrate my birthday with friends and family. People I know, love and care about, not your business partners or anyone with bad attitude’s that are gonna ruin my day. I don’t know where my sudden courage came from but I was not backing down. I knew she planned to kill me and all my dreams were starting to become believable. Va Lara knew something was wrong I can’t feel it but she’s quiet.

She was smart and waiting for me to give her direction. Her eyes stay on my mother like she’s watching a predator toy with its prey. My mom huffs very well if you must have her stay then she is welcome to stay. Mom I am sure by now you have made her feel pretty unwelcome and we are gonna step out and talk. You should probably go entertain your partners so they don’t miss you too much.

With a scowl on her face her hawk like eyes scan me and then Va Lara before heading back outside. I nod at Va Lara with my finger over my lips silently asking her to be quiet. We walk outside and I state a bit louder than normal. Let me help you with your stuff. Where did you park? She nods her head and we start walking down the road. I see that I wasn’t the only one who to a hike to my party.

She laughs but I see it’s not entirely real almost for show. She stumbles and I reach to catch her when she whispers we are being watched. Then speaks louder thanks girl that would have hurt. I have a laugh of my own nodding I say yeah I know it. We reach her car it’s a little red six speed Jetta. I go around to the back door on one side when she leans into the other door opposite.

Keeping my voice very low I tell her we need an exit strategy before then party ends. Va Lara states I can come up with that but where are we going? I tell her I am unsure yet but I am open to suggestions. She tells me to give her a bit as we grab a few bags of snacks to look like we got something we close the doors. I then tell Va Lara I need stuff from my Jeep. Walking over to it I unlock the doors and grab all my money and identification. Pocketing those discreetly I grab all the chocolate she gave me earlier and wink at her.

We head back in heading to my room and I am sure I seen a face I never wanted to see spying on us outside. Once I my room I text Va Lara that Dorthy was stalking me outside. She nodded but didn’t reply like maybe we would be heard. She grabs my phone and takes my case off. Opening the Sims card slot there is a chip sitting on top of my Sims card. I put my hand over my mouth to quiet my reaction.

She digs into her bag and shows me a new card and in notes on her phone she types after we leave we will change it. I am being bugged and so is my Jeep. She shows me pictures of Dorthy putting something under my Jeep, then the next is a picture of the device she placed. The next message is she works for your mom and I know that she is fully aware of what’s going on.

We need to head down to the party and have fun she state’s out loud for who ever is listening. Heading down we chat and giggle about how bad my roommate is and what’s happening at work. Heading outside we are arm n arm walking to the punch table. My mom is speaking in hushed voices but I heard her anyway somehow. She’s back we go as planned if she is awakened tonight and if not we wait till she’s alone.

Like hell you will I think to myself and I am scared that what ever they are waiting on I will have no control over. We walk around eating talking among ourselves until the creep Lance comes to make conversation. I grin and talk with him playing my part. It’s about 6pm now and we are about to finally do cake and gifts. This party is coming to the end but I am feeling kinda strange so I head to the bathroom asking Va Lara to come with giggling about some hot guys we saw in school.

I tell her we need to go I am feeling weird and her eyes widen just a little in acknowledgement. After I use the bathroom we walk back to the party. Mom walks up to us and starts complaining about me not spending time with my other guests. Va Lara suddenly vomits on my mother. Oh my goodness I am so vomits again sorry. What the Hell is wrong with you?? My mother starts screaming at her.

I look at my mother embarrassed by her behavior and I tell her. I cannot believe you are screaming at my guest for being sick. Looking at the crowd I announce that I am sorry to leave but my friend fell ill and I would be driving her home. Oh yeah mom didn’t like that either. No absolutely Not nobody invited her she can leave on her own.

Umm you may have forgotten mom but I invited her to my party so yes ma’am I am responsible for her plus I am not sure what’s wrong with everyone today but I would rather deal with my crazy roommate then spend five more minutes here. My dad goes to speak but instead closes his mouth and ducks back into the house.
