"Stup up you stupid woman!!!",a voice yelled.
"Don't you tell me to shut up, who the fuck are you!?,another voice replied.
"Urghhh....It's too early for this crap" I groan out.
What do you do when what you wake up to everyday is the noise your parents make fighting?
Why can't I just be like other kids who wake up to alarm clocks?
Well...what can I do?
Oh, by the way, you don't know me.
Well, I'm Hope Bennett of the prestigious Bennett family that everybody loves and wants to be a part of.The most amazing family ever
Note the Sarcasm😒
From an outsider's perspective the Bennett family has no flaws,everything is perfect but from an insider's part (which is me,of course) it's all a front my family keeps and trust me,those picture-worthy smiles drop the moment the front door closes.
I shuddered remembering the last fight we had at the Photoshoot on Saturday
Wait!,Today's Monday which means it's school right?
"Thank Goodness!!" I internally scream as I begin a happy dance in my head
I know you're probably asking yourself "who in their right minds is that happy to go to school?"
Well that's me, and I promise I'm not a nerd it's just that School's like my only escape from this shitty house, a place where I get to be a different person,at school I can pretend to be a normal teenage girl without worries and drama at all and I cherish that feeling I get in school more than anything else in the whole wide worl-okay I'm being weird I get it.
I throw open my covers, climb out of bed and walk to my lazy-ass brother's room to wake him up,it's a very hard job because I swear that boy can sleep through an earthquake. Well,I only do this on weekdays cuz on weekends,I'm not even sure I'm up till past noon.
FIRE!!,FIRE!!,FIRE!!,ELIJAH GET YOUR ASS OFF THE BED BEFORE WE DIE!!!!, I scream after kicking the door of his room open and jumping on his bed.
Despite my faked panic, he just pops an eye open and looks up at me,"One of these days there might actually be a fire and I won't believe you and then y'all would burn down with the house"
"Such a depressing thought to have about your family this early in the morning" I shudder and get off his bed.
"What's going on downstairs?" He asks
"The usual", I shrug and answer.
"Well get up, we gotta get to school on time", I try dragging him up and pushing him to his bathroom.
"Yea yea, I know it's Monday" he says as I roll my eyes.
Seeing that he was settled I walk back in to my room and into my bathroom to freshen up,I already know what I wanted to wear to school as I practically planned them in my head the night before.
***
You know that feeling when you plan an outfit in your head and it makes so much sense and you then put it on only to see that it doesn't make any sense?
That frustrating feeling is what is going through my head as I begin searching again since my inner fashion sense failed me.
I end up wearing a cute light blue top and a pair of black leggings and that's the look I know I've been looking for
Casual Monday
I walk downstairs and head straight to the kitchen because I know Maria must've prepared something for us for breakfast.
As expected as I sit at the dining a bowl of cereal materializes in front of me and I look up happy."Thank you so much Ma,what would we do without you?"
"Guess you'll never find out till I'm dead and gone,you know I'm never leaving you guys right?"Maria smiled and asked.
I smile at this because growing up Maria has been my everything,a mom,a teacher, a friend,the only person I come to when I cry and confide in or have an issue that's beyond me,she and Eli are the only constants in my life and I want to keep it that way.
"Well,I know I'm not a difficult person to train I just don't know how you deal with my stubborn ass brother-Oww!!"I yell as I feel a tap at the back of my head.
"Y'know,sometimes no most times you forget I'm your elder brother"Eli says.
I just shrug and face my cereals.
"Ma, what's going on with them this time?" Ha asks as he tilts his head towards the shouting.
"That's not for you guys to bother about,just their small usuals,eat your food and go to school kids".
We sigh and look at each other knowing what their "small usuals" always ends up in.
After eating we get in our cars and begin to drive to my happy place - School
