When it all starts
I hate weekends.Today is on a Sunday and am bored cause I daont have to go to school and I ain't allowed to go out like any other teens do.So I have to stay home and deal with my mum and if I am a bit lucky she will go out and come back in the evening leaving the house all to myself.
Even though I wish to sleep more I just can't.I wake up prepare breakfast and do all the house chores.By the time I finish up I hear movements in my mum's room.I start to panick.
We have never gotten along since I moved in with her as my mum.My biological mum died when I was nine and my younger brother was five.Before her death they had some misunderstanding with my dad and they ended up splitting.Due to advice from friends mum decided to take me with her and leave my brother with our dad.
"Hey you!Can't you hear me calling you?"she shouts."I...I am sorry ma'.""Go clean my room and iron the clothes on the bed.I wanna go out."
When I reach inside mum's bedroom I quickly close the door behind me and breath hard.I can guess my day is going to be a peaceful one since I won't have to deal with her the whole day.I carefully clean her bedroom as well as her bathroom.After I am pleased with my work I iron her clothes as told and go inform her of my progress.
"Am I supposed to beg for tea in my own house?"Georgina asks.I quickly serve her tea and leaves her presence."Genevieve!"That makes me come back to my senses and rush to the sitting room where I left her."Yes mum.""I had told you to iron my clothes,have you finished?"I tell her yes and omit the part that the moment I finished I came telling her and she dismissed me with an angry eye then leave.
She gets dressed and I busy myself with cleaning the table and removing the tea that she hasn't drunk.After she is ready she goes out and I close the gate.Finally she is gone.
It's about ten at night and she is not yet back.I am trying mybest not to fall asleep but I need to sleep because I have school the next day.I don't know for how long I stay there untill my eyes close automatically.I can hear a car hooting in my head and I listen carefully.Oh no!It's not in my head.Its her she is here.I star thinking of the best excuse to give her so that I can be shared of her wrath.When I stand up I find myself falling on the couch again.What is wrong with me? What is going on?
