I woke up, looking immediately at the clock. 5:30 AM. Usually this would be perfect, except for the fact that it's a Saturday. Figuring I couldn't get back to sleep, I quietly stepped downstairs to see if I can sneak any breakfast. Luckily mom and dad were still asleep, surrounded by strong scented puddles and a pizza. Very quietly I walked over, grabbed the pizza and heard a shattering sound underneath my foot. This defiantly wasn't one of Boy's leaves, it left blood and shards. I looked up, hoping my parents were heavy sleepers, but nope. I'm surprised they could run so fast when hungover. But in my defense, I had glass in my foot so there wasn't much running from me. Eventually I was stopped when we reached the tree stump my dad cut down when he saw me playing on it. Literally, he cut it down WHILE I was playing on it. "Eda" My mom said. I could see her raising her hand to slap me, but then, surprisingly, put it down and said "Let's get you cleaned up." What was she doing? She'd never helped me before. She lifted me up and brought me into the kitchen, sitting me down on my dad's chair. She picked out every individual glass piece, along with a few slivers I never knew about. "Th-thank you um, mom." I stuttered. She kissed my forehead, and walked away. "Oh, and have some pizza. We want you filled up." She said, and even winked at me. That was weird. Really weird. We're they still drunk? Drunk or not, I didn't stop them. Anything giving me this treatment I'll do nothing to make it stop.
