The Bully I Love To Frustrate

Family Reunion

*not edited*

Dahlia

Everybody has their worst days. And mine happens every year. I am not taking about Christmas and Halloween.

Those are my best holidays. I get gifts when it's not even my birthday and I get to scare the shit out of people.

I'm talking about family reunion. Yeah, those are the worst, especially when my family host it. I get to see my bitchiest cousin Matilda and her 'perfect' parents.

Ooh how I wished she dies in a car accident on her way.

"Snap out of your thoughts Dahlia and help me with the turkey" My mom said from the kitchen.

I look over the table setting seven grown boys, for of them unfortunately happens to be my older brothers and she is calling me?!

All these boys gets to sit down with their muscles occupying the chair and I who has technically nothing but bones and thin skin would carry that?!

I stare in shock at the biggest turkey I have ever seen I'm my seventeen years of living. What is in that thing?!

"Hurry up Dally" My mom called again.

I grumpily stood up and dragged my feet to the kitchen.

I looked at the clock and sighed

"What's wrong Dally?" My mom asked

"It's 6:15" I told her

"I'm confused" She said

"Dad said he'd be here before six" I said

"Your Dad is a very busy man he is trying his best to raise you"She explained

"I'm tired of that excuse mom, he wasn't even her for my sweet sixteen"I said

"It's not his-"

"You know"I cut her off "you can't raise a person right if you aren't there for that person. Money isn't the answer to everything"

"It's not like that Dally, he loves you" she caressed my cheek

"Tell me one time he had ever been there for us" I told my arms

"He is here but not just here" My mom wrapped her arms around herself

"Stop this mom, he is not here not even in spirit, he is either in Las Vegas or Bahamas or Hawaii but he is not here"I cared the turkey and left the kitchen.

I forgot how heavy the turkey was because of how angry I was until my hands became weak.

And guess what? I just took my fourth step!

"This is so heavy!" I groaned internally

"Let me help" Leo my older cousin said carrying my burden from my hands.

When I say that boy is good sent!

I smiled at him as he dropped the turkey at the centre of the dining table.

"Wow that's a big turkey" his mom laughed.

Tell me about it.

I was about to seat when the door bell rang.

Okay everyone grab unto your bats and broomsticks, the bitch has arrived.

"I'll get it"I walked to the door.

"Good evening Aunt Amanda and Uncle Fred"I smiled

"Come in!"I squealed a little.

I know the squealing wasn't necessary but I still did it anyway, just to show how 'excited' I am.

My fake smile dropped when I saw Matilda.

Yup, she didn't die on the road, she never does. My prayers never work.

"Hi Delilah"she flashes me one of her annoying but undeniably beautiful smile.

"Hello Madison"I smiled back.

"It's Matilda"she deadpanned.

"You were the one that called for change your cousin's name day, what do you expect me to do, not join in on the fun?"I asked in a duh tone.

She just rolled her eyes and walked inside.

"She has serious problems for her age" I heard a voice say.

"She really does"I agreed to the voice.

Wait. Did I just agree to a ghost. OMG I can hear dead people. What if it's my...

"Guardian angel that you?" I whispered so people inside won't think I'm crazy.

"No It's dead Grandpa Mark" I turned to the door i was holding and saw Matilda's older brother. My favorite family member.

"Danny!!" I squealed and hugged him tight.

Now that's a genuine squeal people.

"I thought you weren't going to make it" I told him.

"Why would you think that?"he asked.

"Because you didn't come last year"

"That's why I came this year" he said.

"Nah! You missed me" I teased him.

The family reunion ended by nine o'clock and everyone left. Nick, my oldest brother insisted on staying for the night with his wife Stephanie and my little niece Rachael.

Yup, I am someone's Aunt. I became an aunt when I was sixteen.

My other two brothers Grey and James went back to their apartment and Olley my twin brother was in his room. Snoring.

Aunt Amanda and Uncle Fred were in the sitting room with my mom discussing and I was left with Maya and Daniel to clean the table and the dishes.

Of course Danny would have left to do college work but he knew I would die if I was left alone with this snake.

I know she hasn't done anything bad yet. But trust me, she is a green snake in green grass a wonderful actor that can put up a scene and play victim card so well.

"So how is college?" I asked Danny

"Fun" was all he said

"You are lying"I said sharply and he laughed.

"Of course I don't want to be the reason you are afraid to go to college" he said.

"I was actually thinking of dropping out of high school....." I trailed off

"If your mama hears that, you are dead meat" he laughed

"Can you guys stop being boring for one second"Matilda hissed

"You are the one eaves dropping on our conversation"I told her trashing the disposable cups.

"I can't help it, we are in the same fu- freaking room you idiot" she snapped

"Of course you can, the door leading to outside my house is right there" I pointed to the hall leading to the exit door.

"That's really funny why am I not laughing"she scoffed

"Simple, you have no sense of humor" I said dryly.

She sent me a death glare which I received whole heartedly and sending back a sweet smile.

Isn't she the best?

We finished cleaning and they went back home. Thank God.

I dragged my feet to my room and the myself on the bed.
