"Merry Christmas". I heard one of my aunts say bussing into my room, I groaned and instantly got irritated as I counted to ten in my head to stop myself from getting angry.

"Merry Christmas tt". I groaned doing a light stretch, "when are you coming down"? She asked me.

"I'll be down in a few". I responded not moving as I heard my door close. I laid in my bed although I could use a extra few minutes I decided against it and got up.

I threw my covers off me as I looked at myself in the mirror, my hair was in a bonnet for the first time in a while due to me just not wanting to deal with it.

I sighed grabbing all my things as I started heading for the shower, I powered my phone off simply not wanting to be bothered with anything or anyone.

I got into the shower letting the warm water hit my body as I stared at it. I was more than ready to go back to school, let alone just graduate and not have a reason to come back to Texas.

I knew for a fact that Texas wasn't in my plan after graduation, it's too much trauma and too many memories I don't wanna look back on.

"Naomii baby, come on down. we're about to start". My mom yelled to the bathroom as I rolled my eyes.

I didn't understand why my presence was so needed, I rarely got anything for Christmas since I was 16, I don't understand this family at all.

I stayed in the shower just a bit longer before turning the water off and stepping out, drying myself off. I decided to just throw on my pajamas due to the fact I was going to get right in the bed after this.

I made my way down to the living room seeing all my mother sisters and her kids. My mother had 6 siblings and they all had kids, majority of them were girls.

"You don't want anything to eat baby? Jen the only cool aunt I have asked me, "no ma'am I'm fine". I gave her a smile as I sat down on the couch beside my mom.

She had been acting very weird since I came home, she wasn't being as sweet and friendly as she would with me. Usually she'd come in my room, check on me and we'd talk for hours but she had barely talked to me since I've been home.

Not to mention she has been hanging around with my other aunts, rather than my aunt Jen who is like her bestfriend. Plus my other aunts are weird and very messy so I don't understand why she's all up their ass.

"Alright let's start opening gifts". Karlie another one of my aunts spoke.

I decided to just see if I had anything last because I know the kids love Christmas and I know they got hella gifts so I was gonna wait.

All the kids got their gifts and thanked everyone, one reason I didn't really like my cousins was because they thought they were better than everyone else because their parents spoiled them, even tho their young they come with these arrogant attitudes that I just refuse to deal with.
