"Let's just jump off from the window outside. Life is tough, I'm sick of it!"
I left a big sigh and went to bed with a deep anxiety. Mumbling the same disappointment every night and forgetting everything the next morning....
"Still sleeping? Where is she? Don't have class today? Won't she gonna wake up?"
Yeah,a deep old voice roaming in the house. I've been listening for a while but didn’t respond. My tired ass doesn’t want to leave the bed and jump to reality and live the same life again.. I'm so sleepy but something heavy is in my mind. I neither can open my eyes nor sleep. I rolled in the left then right. Doing it again and again.. My open hair stuck with one to another. The skin oil flowing, some fresh pimples aching too..
"You come here and help me out!"
Yeah,that old voice again. I felt like my ears gonna bleed. Can't tolerate that voice for no reason. Everything sucks! I'd supposed to forget everything. My anxiety should have gone with the night.. It’s gonna be a long day!
I left my bed,folded the blanket and cleaned the room. Then went to the washroom and freshened up..
"What you want me to do?"
I asked the old hag who was behaving like a drag since the early morning.
"What's the time in the clock?"
"I don't think you called me for this reason. Just tell me what you want."
"I wanted you to take out the garbage and bake some cookies. But you were sleeping and now it's too late!"
"Cookies?!"
"For my Bakery.. "
"You should have said that to me last night. I just can't bake thing suddenly waking up from my sleep."
"Anyway! Do the dishes.. And eat the rest. I'm going,i need to open my shop."
"Where is your son?"
"He left so early in the morning. "
"Why tho?"
"Don’t ask me,do as i said."
"Okay.."
She said "DO THE DISHES AND EAT THE REST" That gives me a really hard punch to my heart and it’s painful now. She simply could tell me to eat first then do the course later. Her feelings must be gone with her first ever useless ungrateful elder son. Yeah yeah my father.
She has another dumb useless son but at least he is a lil bit faithful to his mother, that's why his mother loves him dearly.. I can't stand him tho. These two brother should be cut off from my story.
And my mother died. She died naturally.. I'd never called that early death.. I like to say natural. Her time was end.
Well if I've to say about the old hag,umm.. She is actually soft inside. Even tho she always behave like everything is just a drag. I nag too. But In the end she care for me, I do the same no cap! When I was little,mom used to go for her work. I and hag used to do all kind of work. Most of the recipes I know are learned by her. Now I grow up,she grown old can't blame her temper because It's a matter of age.
I ate the everyday tasteless chicken soup with dry bread. Can't really complain since i didn’t help a bit.. I went to my room and sit on the floor with a note book. The new year festival is coming so i need to come up with new ideas for the bakery. I really love to bake. That old hag really wanted to build a big bakery shop and live her life at least peacefully. But that didn’t happen. She is running a small shop. She is trying to run the shop for some more years. Because she had to shouldered an unnecessary burden like me. An useless son who do nothing.
Her shop earns pretty good profit during any festival. We try to do new thing on these days. My cookies are the most famous item that sells normally every year. So i try to make something very unique and attractive sweets or pastry during the festivals.
I'm in high school, I'm not a good student but not bad either. I'm balanced version. If i make into a good college a lot of things will be solved. I can't do part time since I'd to taken care of the shop.. But maybe if i want i can still spare some time...
