Cadence woke up and felt like everyone was mad at her for something.
She hates that feeling.
She had to go to the store with her sister.
Everyone was rushing her. She almost forgot the shopping list. She heard her mom say “Ugh seriously?” She almost cried right there but she has learned to hold it in over the months. So she sucked it up and went to the car. Well then her sister forgot something and it took her ten minutes to go get it. Nobody had a problem with that, of course. They didn’t talk much in the car.
They got to the store they didn’t talk at all except to ask if she could have a pack of gum. It was dreadful. She felt horrible in a sad way.
Then they got into the car she was finally feeling better from what seemed like two hours in the store nowhere to run and cry. When they got in the car her sister turned around said “Are you OK?” There she was right where she started. After that they went to go pick up her niece Candice from the babysitters. Seeing her smile and hearing her laugh made her feel a bit better. She is like a little bit of hope. Every time she sees her it makes me feel a little stronger a little hopeful, but when she got home her mom frowned at her. Made her lose that hope again. What did I do this time? She thought. She cleaned the kitchen, Her room is clean. She knows her mom loves finding reasons to be mad at her.
So all they did that night was eat dinner watch a little TV then she went to bed. She didn’t want to talk to anymore people. She wanted to be alone. She was sick of everyone asking if she was OK making her even more not OK.
She washed her face, brushed her teeth and went to bed. She drew a little and thought “Why am getting so mad at everyone? I'm a jerk, I shouldn’t even be alive.”
Lets just say it wasn’t one of her best days.
