Being A Badgirl

Fun

The person Janice didn't expect to see is her Mum, who would be known as Fiona from this point.

I opened my eyes and nearly screamed, again, when I saw someone beside me. It was Ron. Making as little noise as possible, I dressed and got downstairs.
Only to see Fiona talking to Jacob in a hushed tone. Jan was also there, staring blankly at the ceiling. Apparently he didn't take in the news of having a new father that well either, but didn't have anyone to talk to. Hence. Memories of the past was probably swirling in his extremely big head.

Dropping into the seat beside Jan, I demanded," Hey Jan? Why are there strangers in our house?"
Fiona stood up and hissed," We are not strangers. Watch your tone young lady. I'm your mother and he, is your father."
I slammed my palm on the table and stood up. Wow. What a way to start a day. Who am I to say anything? I cursed the first thing in the early hours of yesterday.  

"No you're not. You are just a fucking egg donor. And you," pointing at Jacob," are just the husband. And since I don't like eating with strangers, why not you guys fucking move your fucking asses before I fucking make you?"

Fiona sobbed and grabbing Jacob's arm, dragged him out, slamming the door behind her. Why did she stay here, I didn't know.

I slid to the floor, and buried my face in my head, tired from screaming at someone I've known as my Mum for sixteen years. Even though I just got up from a really peaceful sleep. Guess I should have just laid under the covers, went back to sleep and shut up like a good little girl.

Good was never my thing anyway.
I heard two sets of footsteps rush forward to comfort me. I must have woken Ron up. I raised my head to apologize when I saw Ron crouching in front of me, waving 3 tickets. Jan was grinning a little," Ron brought 3 tickets to Singapore." He frowned a little," in 4 hours."
I hugged Ron before running to my room, them hot on my heels because of my sudden departure. All I wanted to do was to grab a penknife.

I could hear Ron behind me and he froze when he saw what I was holding.

I facepalmed myself at their concern. "No I didn't take the penknife to slit my wrist and bleed to death in such an undignified manner. Not to mention painful. Besides, I did tell you guys before that if I gave up on life, I would donate myself to some research center? I'm just gonna chop my hair. Done with Fiona and how cutting off your hair always seem like a new beginning."

And so, I looped everything in a messy ponytail.

And hacked it off.

Both of them stood with his mouth hanging. I laughed at them before pushing pass to pack for later.

We will all be sleeping in the same hotel room since there are 2 beds and a couch. Very smart Ron.

I, was the first to arrive and dumped everything on one of the beds. "Dibs!"

Upon hearing me, Ron and Jan charged in at the same time and squabbled about who should sleep on the couch.

"Ron, sleep on the couch."

"But why? I bought the tickets you know? Show your gratitude and sleep on it then."

"Yeah? But I'm older and I say you sleep on the bloody couch you piece of shit."

"You shut up. This hotel is registered under my name so you shut up unless I call security and have you kicked out for trespassing."

"Shut up son. And accept sleeping on the couch or I wouldn't let you go out with Janice."

I laughed. As if he could stop me. They turned to me and snarled," What?"

I took a coin. "Heads or tails? Winner sleeps on the bed."
"Heads." They glared at each other. I shook my head. My patience wearing thinner and thinner. If they don't stop it soon, I would pitch them out of the hotel window or hang them from the fan on the ankles.

"Jesus. Ron, tail. Jan, head. Happy?"

I flipped the coin. " Heads it is."
Jan did a 2-minute victory dance while Ron crossed his arms and sulked, mumbling stuff about the coin being biased and all.

"Night guys." I turned the lights off. The guys started to protest,"The shit Janice? We ain't even ready yet!" I shrugged and because they couldn't see me, I proceeded to explain my reason.  "Because, I am tired. I resolved the conflict between y'all and all. If any of you on the lights, don't blame me if you notice anything wrong with yerselves."

Smiling smugly to myself, I snuggled under the covers and it wasn't long before I slept again.
