When I got home to Thornhill my heart fluttered as I saw Minevra's car on my driveway, she was home. I was greeted at the door by my beautiful girlfriend and she pulled me through to the dining room and I heard light music.
"Will you dance with me Cheryl?" She asked sweetly
"Of course, my love" I replied and she took my hand we started dancing along to the music. I pulled Minerva closer to me and held her tightly.
"I love you" left my mouth for the first time. She kissed my lips long and softly.
"I love you too" she replied and we continued dancing when suddenly I heard the crashing of my heavy doors swing open. Someone had busted through. It couldn't have been Nana. Oh my lord, It was my mother. Penelope Blossom stood before me in my halls in her orange prison suit with soot and dirt all over her. She had turned herself in 7 years ago to finally pay for all the crimes she had committed.
What the hell was she doing here?
"Mumzie? What are you doing here?" I asked
"Nightmare child, I have escaped that hideous prison and praise God that I did, flames are approaching upon Thornhill, quickly to the window"
My mother, Minevra and I ran to the window where my Nana Rose was sitting.
"Our groves" I whimpered as I saw giant orange flames burning my maple trees to the ground.
"The curse. The curse of our ancestors demands that all living Blossoms must die. Unless" My Nana stated
"Unless?" I questioned, slightly fed up of my Nana and this fucking Blossom curse.
"We sacrifice the interloper" My Nana continued.
I glanced at my mother and back to my Nana and then at my girlfriend.
Does she mean Minevra? My Min-Min?
Minerva looked at me with panic on her face. I wasn't actually going to sacrifice her, okay I thought about for a second, half a second. I felt guilty beyond words. Minerva ran out of Thornhill when she thought I was giving into my Nana and was actually going to sacrifice her.
"No, Min-Min wait" I shouted and started to chase her down the hall when my mother grabbed me.
"There's no time to give chase, we must pray, pray for wind to divert the fire" my mother said.
I agreed and began praying with my nana and my mother.
It worked? I just don't know what to believe in anymore, are the Blossoms cursed or not?
Wind and rain poured over Riverdale and the fire was extinguished. My maple groves were destroyed but us and Thornhill were safe.
"So what are you doing here mother? Are you expecting to stay here with Nana and I? I'm not sure I've forgiven you just yet" I stated.
"Nightma- ugh, Cheryl. Please, I can't go back to that hell hole. I've spent 7 years behind bars, is that not enough for you? I've repented my sins, I'm sorry child" my mother said pleading.
"You killed people mother, including daddy and uncle Claudius, you tried to kill nana, you pushed her down the stairs. You-you made me feel worthless, you didn't stand by me when Nick St. Clair attempted to sexually assault me, you never accepted the fact I'm a lesbian and you never made my beloved Toni feel welcome, you even sent me to gay conversion camp mother. You-you made my life... miserable" a tear rolled down my cheek.
"Cheryl, I'm trying my best here"
"Fine, you can stay, but you can have the basement and I want to see you as little as possible, your prison sentence isn't over in my eyes, Penelope" I said. I've never been good at standing up to my mom, I had my moments. I did burn Thornhill down when I was 16 to punish my mother and I did threaten her by cutting off her oxygen at the hospital once, but that's all. She still had so much power over me. I hated it.
