839 Words
"Mmmm" I giggled as I adjusted the pillow in my arm
"Mummy stop it" I pleaded amidst laughter but she tickled me more and I fell on the bed
"Are you getting up or not?" Mummy Elizabeth asked
"Oo, mum I want to sleep, I'm feeling sleepy, I'll eat later" I pouted
"No sweetie, you should eat, freshen up and then sleep after" She cooed
"Noooo" I whined refusing to acknowledge what she said
"Alright then, let's do this, I'll go down there, fetch your food and then bring it up here for you, how about that" I was about refusing when she said
"There's no way on Earth you are going to refuse that darling, because I would not allow my sweet daughter, sleep on an empty stomach"
"Alright, alright, you win, you win, okay" I said smiling
"You are the best mom ever"
"And you are the best daughter ever"
"Okay dear, I'll go get it now" she said and with that she left
I smiled and lay on my bed
Isn't she too loving
Yes!!
Mummy Elizabeth - my step mother, is the best mummy anyone would ever ask for, she literally filled the motherless space.
I lay down facing my sides, covering myself with the duvet....
I felt a splash of water on my face and I woke up to an angry face glaring daggers at me.
"How dare you"
The moment I heard that, I knew I was in for it
"Please forgive me I didn't mean to" I immediately got off the bed and knelt down pleading for my dear skin
"You must be very stupid" she said as she went out only to return with whip
"Lie on your stomach" she commanded as she positioned the whip
"Please, it would not repeat....." I was welcomed by a sharp pain on my shoulder, she just hit me, of course, what was I expecting, she just hit me, she would never love me, she would never treat me well, and, here I am dreaming about the impossible version of her, dream that's going to get me flogged right now, Ooh my goodness she would never change...
"Have you gone deaf, I said lay on your stomach this minute, while I'm still been nice" she yelled,
"Is this what nice means to her?" I thought and then lay on my stomach as instructed
"Please mum am so sorry, I didn't know when I slept off" I cried as another stroke landed on my buttocks
"You stupid fowl, haven't I told you not to call me your mother anymore, and what about the plates I asked you to wash?" She hit me continuously.
xxxxxxx
I am Linda, a girl who live in a hell mansion, built by her stepmother-Elizabeth, the world have been so cruel to me ever since my mom died, and ever since then, my only father detest me, he said I killed my mum, but for some reason I agreed, 'I killed her, my adorable mom' If I had not insisted she comes with me to the pool, then she would have been there for me, for us, and we would have been a one big happy family.
Maybe I am not destined to be happy.
7 YEARS AGO
Yes, it's been seven years since my mom died, and since all this years I've buried myself in grief and sorrow.
It all happened, one evening I came downstairs to meet my parent watching a movie in the television
"Good evening mum" I pecked her
"Good evening dad" I gave him a light kiss on his forehead
"Awwn, my baby girl" mom said smiling beautifully at me, a smile i didn't hesitate to return.
"I want to have a state at the pool with you" I said giving her my best smile, even though I knew she was enjoying the moment with her husband-MY DAD
"Look honey, I can't go to the pool right now, I'm busy, but I promise to go with you some other time okay, please" she pleaded
"You should understand your mom, we are busy and we will join you some other time okay" he said sounding a bit cold when he noticed I frowned
"Please just this one time mom, I just want to enjoy it with you" stubborn me pouted like a baby
"Alright, alright, I'll go with you but just this once" she said placing her palm on my cheeks
Wow, I knew she would fall for it
"Alright dear, I'll be upstairs waiting for you, just be quick" dad said as he picked his phone from beside him and walked upstairs not before glaring at me unnoticed to mum.
"Why do I always feel like he doesn't like me" I thought
"I love you mom"
"I love you too dear"
