ENTRAPMENT( Collection of Short Stories)

Arranged Marraige

" You can explain on our way out of here. Why are you here ? Are you hurt? Where is everybody else are they hurt? "

The door clicked then it unlocked.

I love the sound of that.

I didn't want to be down there any longer.

She had tears in her eyes , although her tears said something different than mine.

I wanted to hug her but I couldn't.

I knew her she had did something stupid. I knew by the look on her face that she had something to do with this.

I just didn't know what she'd done yet.

" Mom what is going on ? Last thing I remember is being at my senior party, what the fuck ! Why can't you look at me ? WHAT DID YOU DO ? "

I yelled because I'd known this lady my entire life & she literally had nothing to say .

She could talk up ten Texas men at once & have them hooked.

Hell ! Even could of been a Lawyer in a different life.

" Baby listen , your uncle & cousins need you right now. "

" What do you mean ? Im not moving to California right it's my senior year you can't be serious & what is this place why is it so dark ?"

I was whinning to her , I needed my mom , I needed a shoulder to cry on.

" I just wanna go home mom please. I've changed my attitide , I've brought home descent grades , never even kissed a boy so why are you torturing me ? "

The tears were falling I couldn't stop them.

You'd think she'd know me by now , I hated to cry.

" Baby your still a vigin ? " Puzzled she turn away from me an cleared her throat.

" We have to go its almost breakfast soon , I told you I'll explain now follow me. "

She said walking away from me now.

I followed her because for one it was dark as hell , & for two I was hungry.

" What you mean am I a virgin? We live under the same roof, how could you not know ? "

My feelings were actually hurt this women knew nothing about me.

" Well I guess I just thought , you know with the clothes you wear , im sorry I just assumed you were out of hand. "

" OUT OF HAND ? I smoke marijuana all of a sudden im a bad person ?
Mom you had a baby in high school.
I wear whatever I want , that shouldn't define me. Im still the same person I was five years ago. Your little girl , I just can't believe you apologized when you're obviously to late. You just kidnapped your own child. You should be sorry. "

I had hoped that my words would hurt her.

She deserved everything that karma would give her.

All I wanted to know was what was really going on.

The hallways was so long but now I could hear a tv or radio playing.

Observing everything around me , I was planning my escape with or without my mother.
