Usually when both my mom and dad are at work I sleep, watch Netflix and when mom comes back we have dinner as she tells me all about her day at work but today something's wrong because she is an hour late and my mother is never late.

I am pulled out of my thoughts when my phone starts ringing and I immediately answer not bothering to check who it is.

"Hey Neveah it's Mrs Thompson, Anna's mom", she said.

"Oh hie, my mom's not home at the moment but I will call you back once she is", I tell her ending the call. Usually when my mom is not picking up her phone Anna's mom calls me instead to tell her to answer the phone.

It's been days since mom hasn't returned and I'm starting to get worried, as for my dad I'm sure he's on some business trip and it's not the first time he's left without saying anything so I'm not surprised at all.

I heard the front door opening and thinking it's my mom, I immediately rush downstairs only to be greeted by my father who l embrace nonetheless though I was expecting my mom.

"Everything okay?", I ask him as he seems to have been crying judging from the dried up tears and as I stared at him up close I could tell he hadn't slept for days wherever he was.

"Your mother's dead Neveah", he said and I felt as if the room was spinning upon hearing his words and it felt as if a piece of me had just gone with my mother and I felt empty.

"T-thats n-not I-I "I stuttered, struggling to formulate a single sentence and soon tears began rolling down my cheek once I looked back at my dad who was letting out tears of his own and I fell to my knees as I began sobbing uncontrollably and with one last glance my father headed upstairs to his room.

I locked myself in my room and after two days, when I finally accepted it I went downstairs to check up on dad, who no doubt was more affected than I was. I looked for him everywhere but I couldn't find him and eventually I gave up and went to the dining where I saw a note with my dad's writing and I began reading it.

Tears began rolling down my cheeks and I let out a scream as I sobbed uncontrollably.

"Why is everyone leaving me?", I whispered as I looked in the mirror just in the corner of the dining.

"Am I not good enough," I shouted.

"I fucking hate you, you're a worthless bitch who everyone leaves and you will never be good enough for anyone." I shouted at my reflection in the mirror before punching it with my hand so that l don't have to look at my disgusting self and it broke into several pieces.

My heart was shattered when my mum died as she was not only a mother but a role model, a best friend and a sister I never had all in one. Even after five years I still feel the pain and relive every day I spent with her before she was taken from me. I've tried to move past it, but today is the one day that I can't even hide the fact that I was and am still affected by her passing on.

"I know today is a very traumatic day for you as it marks five years since she's been gone." Anna sat beside me on the edge of the bed as she rubbed my back soothingly.
