"ALISHA, GET YOUR DUMB ASS IN HERE!" Ms. Kathy screamed out from the kitchen. She was the type of mother you knew not to play with...well at least when it came to Alisha. She was nicer to the rest of her kids but Alisha never understood why her mother didn't like her. She was the single mother of 4, broke and living in the projects down in the south. Ms. Kathy wasn't always single, her kids father ran out on them just 2 years ago to go be with some young floozy, her or Alisha haven't been right since.
Alisha heard her mothers voice ring out into her room, she immediately jumped up and looked at her alarm clock. the clock read 7:48 a.m. Alisha then looked over to the next bed where she didn't see her older brother Corey sleeping.
"HURRY THE FUCK UP!" Her mother yelled again.
Alisha knew she was in trouble by the tone in her mothers voice so she was in no rush to see what she wanted.
"Yes ma?" Alisha asked in a sleepy voice. "Why in the hell are you still here, don't you know these kids have to be to school and so do you?"
Alisha was responsible for getting on the bus and getting her two younger sibblings to daycare and picking them up since her mother didn't have a car. Alisha came up with a quick lie to tell her mother on why she was late getting up. "I was up studying all night so I didn't hear my alarm clock this morning" she said, but the truth was she was on the house phone all night.
"SHUT UP YOU LYING ASS BITCH, THAT'S ALL YOU FUCKING DO!" Her mother shouted while pointing her finger at Alisha. "GO IN THERE AND GET MY DAMN BABIES UP, GET THEM READY AND TAKE THEM TO SCHOOL BEFORE I PUT MY FOOT IN YOUR FAST ASS!"
Alisha was furious but knew not to show it or her mother would beat her. She thought to herself why her mother couldn't just stay home with the kids, she didn't do shit anyway but stay home all day and lay on her fat ass.
Alisha turned around and walked towards her room where the two kids were sleeping. "Sage!...Kayla!...get up babies, sissy gonna get you ready for school" she said while shaking them up.
Alisha was like the mother to them. She practically raised them since their mother is too lazy to do anything. She feeds, bathes and looks out for them. Sage is 4 and Kayla 2, Alisha takes good care of them to only be 16.
She got the two up and put them in the tub and got them dressed. She took them to the living room and sat them both down with a dry cup of cereal and turned on some cartoons. "Watch TV while I go take a shower" she told the two. "Ok" Sage replied.
Alisha ran and got ready for school. She put on her tight short-shorts which accented her curvy body, a red tank top that exposed her breast, and her favorite red and white chuck taylors. She fixed her hair up, grabbed the two kids and her bus pass then proceeded to run out the door before her mom could see her outfit.
