would you react if you ever got fed up with the things that bothered you ? You may have kept calm and focused on anything else, but not now, not this time.
The sun was slipping through the curtains getting in my eyes, making the time pass slower. It was a simple Saturday morning and I was at my English meditation, looking forward for it to end, not that I don 't like, it 's just the fact that me and my best friend were throwing a party at her house afterwards and I was beyond excited. It was my escapade in months, one night that will make the stress go away, finally some time away from the hell at home. Let me tell you more about me and the hell that I'm living in. My name is Bethany, I'm sixteen and I'm the daughter of a former perfect A student. Great. Since I was a little kid my mum tried to learn me anything, she always kept wanting to ”improve” me, she had this obsessive concept of how her girl should be. That type of nerd who dresses like a freaking granny, has no social life and puts learning before anything. Pffft, yeaaah, sure. Unfortunately for her, I'm exactly the opposite. Sometimes I can't help but see the disappointment in her eyes when she has to look at the dark, insane, metal head that she has to call 'daughter'. Getting back to my day... The hour l ended and me and my best friend, Samantha, burst through the door and started walking to the bus stop with a retarded grin on our faces.
' So, lets see if we have to get anything else for the party? Do we have chips and juice ? I said with excitement in my voice. '
' Yup. '
' Helium, honey, balloons and feathers ? '
' Duh-uh , of course, it wouldn't have been a party if we didn't have em', Sam replied giving me a cocky smile. '
' The same goes with the boys and girls. '
' Oh, you can say that again. ' she chuckled playfully.
*later that day*
We have been preparing her house for the party for an hour ant it looked amazing. Her house was at the edge of the town, near a forest and it was HUGE, well that was the main reason her parents let us throw a party. There were balloons everywhere, lots of bowls of pretzels, chips and cookies, we even had a scary movie prepared for the night. We were changing into other clothes when the bell rang and through the door came in our friends that were looking like they ran away from a circus.
' WHO'S READY TO PARTEEEY ? ' they all screamed in unison. Well, lets get it started then.
Two hours later we were fighting with cake when the doorbell rang.
' Are your parents waiting for someone ? ' I asked Sam surprised.
' No, from what I know. Please, go check it out and bring more pretzels cuz' I swear, if I see or eat another slice of cake I'm gonna throw up and also get Diabetes. ' I chuckled at her acting and started heading to the stairs when I heard a familiar voice.
' Hey, I thought that you might need some help with taking care of those Tasmanian devils. I mean, I bet it's hard to keep up with the damage they make. ' my MUM told that in joking manner but to me it sounded like a harsh remark.
I couldn't believe it. She came here only to keep an eye on us and make me feel like hell. Anger flushed through me within a second, making me want to kill someone. When Sam's mum went to the kitchen I darted to my mum, prepared for the worst.
' What are you doing here ?! ' I snapped angrily.
My mum looked at me emotionless. ' Just making sure there will be no funny business around here. '
Her calm and sadistic tone made me lose it. ' WHAT FUCKING FUNNY BUSINESS ? YOU'RE LYING ! I know that what you want to do is ruin my day, make feel like hell, and oh, how you want to make me feel like the last piece of shit !' I spat with venom in my voice. Her expression changed immediately, on her face appearing something that looked rather offense than fury. In a matter of seconds I felt a sharp pain on my cheek.
' WOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE THAT? ' and with that came another slap. ' Now go upstairs before I take you home ' .
I sped up to the second floor and headed straight to the bathroom. Once I was there I started washing my now red face. Then I did the mistake to look into the mirror. ' How can you still bear this shit after so many years that you had only to suck it up, not having the right to defend yourself. After all the nights in which you let your blood run down your arms because of her. How can you live with yourself ?! ' Breaking out my thoughts, I looked my reflection dead in the eye and gained the courage. ' She says I'm a the worst rebellious child. Well, lets give her that, shall we ? ' And with that Sam burst through the door.
' Are you okay ? I heard yelling. '
' No, I'm not okay. I'm gonna show her what I'm capable of. Where is she ? '
She frowned at my words but then she realised what I meant, after all that's what best friends are for.
' She's downstairs. She'll see you, the only way is through the window. Take care. ' and with that she hugged me and left the bathroom.
I looked down. It's just two feet to the ground, I can do this. I took a step back and jumped, but the landing wasn't as I would have wanted it, hurting my ankle a bit. The yelp that escaped my mouth was louder than expected making my mum look out the window and see me running towards the slightly far woods.
' She's gone mad ! KIDS, GET DOWN HERE AND GO AFTER HER. This girl is unbelievable, I'll call the ambulance. ' my mum yelled.
That was all I heard. Now it was up to me and myself. Come and get me now, mum.
