Laura sat at the kitchen table sipping some juice from the bottle as her kids came home from school starting their homework.
(Laura is 40. Trinity-16, Arrow and Hana-14{twins} John is also 40)
Trinity sat, watching some tv while procrastinating to do her homework.
Hana was working on Spanish while Arrow was struggling with math."Mom, can you help me?" "Oh sure, Buddy!!! C'mon! Lemme see..." "yeah ok It's math" he said sitting down at the table with her. Laura almost dropped the bottle of juice.
"M-m-math? ...Math you say...! ...Arrow...did I...happen to hear wrong or did you say..you wanted help with...math...?"
"Yea, mom. I don't understand the calculus-" "CALCULUS?! But you're only 14-why're you doing calculus at this age??" "Because, My teacher said I'm advanced-" "Oh, wonderful! You're smart, I'm sure you could do it by yourself-" "mom, you don't know maths, do you.." "👀...😅Honey! 😃you don't know what you're saying🙂also, be more respectful when talking to adults. Even I was more respectful"
"Hmm..mom, you always say how good you were as a child and make us seem evil. You must have been SO respectful-" As Trinity was finishing, they were randomly transported.
"AHHHHH" They ended up in some chairs in front of an audience.
"Hey! Welcome to 'The Talk Show'! Hosted by: Catherine!!!!" A lady screamed before introducing them all.
Laura waved at the audience. "Mom! What is this!?" "I don't know but it seems we're famous" "so we'll start simple: I will play moments of your mothers teen life and we want REACTIONS! MKAY!?" They stuffed the mic in Trinity's face.
"Okay! The first one~6-CAMPING TRIP1!"
On a big screen behind them, a video of John going to pick red berries popped up. "Dad..." a bear was behind him and it was reaching down in his direction.
Hana forcefully grabbed the remote from Catherine. No! Not today-nobody got time for this-next! I don't want to see dad getting eaten by a bear" "OHH! I REMEMBER THIS! THIS IT THAT TIME WE ALL WENT CAMPING!" "MOM!" "WHAT?? IT WAS FUN-WE ALSO HAD A NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCE🤣🤣"
Catherine pressed the 'next' button to continue.
"7-LAKE BARBECUE!"
The screen now changed to display Laura serving burgers and food from a cookout for $800. "Excuse me" "that's illegal" "800 dollars!? Mom, why!?" "Oh, it was actually 8 we found out about this decimal-dot thingy inbetween the 8 and zero's" they deadpanned at her.
"Trey, did you know that I'm vegetarian?" "Excuse me?" "I'm vegetarian. Processed food is bad for the environment but it taste good so-" "Dad's vegetarian?!" "This morning, though-he was cooking bacon and he ate it ALL!" "huh? I didn't know John is vegetarian.." "he's your husband!" "But I never knew!!" They moved on to the next one...
"13-BRING YOUR CHILD TO WORK DAY!"
Hana, Trinity, Arrow, and Laura herself watched as she on the screen picked her hair, watching it fall into the cake batter. "Oh ewww" "nooo" "mom...." They also watched as Laura put all types of seasonings and condiments in the cake. "Mom! That's not supposed to go in cake!" "Oh? Did I really do this..?"
~
"23-AMUSEMENT PARK!"
"...Did mom just...punch...Mickey...?" "Yup! I remember that day! I ended up going in the ferris wheel with Trey and I THREW UP all over him!" "....mom-" "who's Trey?" "MEE! I REMEMBER THAT DAY! YOU LITERALLY INVITED THE WHOLE GROUP WHEN IT WAS JUST SUPPOSED TO BE US" A voice echoed from the audience. "OH, HEY, TREY!" "YEAH! LONG TIME-WHERE'S JOHN!?" "HE IS AT WORK!"
The next memory popped up.
"OOH! Last One!!! 29-LAURA'S EX!"
A video of John and Trey popped up.
"Hm?" Laura questioned. "Oh! You won't know this. This is a chapter of your life that revolves around John's love for you! The conversation was private between him and Trey so this is the first time you'll hear this!" Catherine said starting it.
--🖥--
"John, I no longer love you. Go away, you are annoying and incredibly boring. You being my boyfriend is preventing me from flirting with others and getting together with them. Andrew has been on my waiting list for months and you've been hogging me. Considering you are not going to share, I will break up with you. However, we can be friends..?"
--
"Dang, mom.." "I would cry if someone broke up with me like that...." "same.."
--🖥--
"-attractive shy but when...WHEN SHE CAME OUT OF HER SHELL...I JUST COULDN'T CONTAIN MYSELF ANYMORE!! I FOUND IT SO ATTRACTING! HER ATTITUDE WAS JUST ON POINT-I LOVE IT! I COULDN'T GET ENOUGH OF HER CRAZY EGO I WAS SO IN LOVE!!!!!!!"
"JOHN-" "I WANT HER BACK! I CAN'T GO ON WITHOUT HER! THAT SASSY MOOD OF HER'S IS SO ADDICTING, I COULD NEVER FORGET THE FEELING OF LUS-"
--
"STOPP IT!! AHHH! IT HURTS IT HURTS IT HURTS! SOO MUCHH TURN IT OFF!!!!!!" Trey whined on the verge of tears while gripping his head in pain. Everybody pretended to not notice him. Trey fell over in pain.
"TREY, YOU ALRIGHT?!" LAURA SCREAMED AS HE PASSED OUT.
"Well...he dead.." Laura said looking at Catherine."Eheheh...well...THANKS FOR SHOWING, EVERYONE! WE WILL COME BACK SHORTLY AFTER THIS BREAK!" Laura and her kids reappeared in their kitchen.
