"What haven't I done for you, Mum?" I bellowed. "I've given you all this money, helped us to live properly again. Was a good son to you when Dad left." I folded my arms, so pissed off that my blood was boiling to the point that it almost dried up. The words tumbled out of my mouth before I even had the chance to stop them. I knew that I was being too harsh, that it wasn't fair to say something like this... But at this point, I was way past the point of caring about the consequences of my actions. "I'm starting to wish I'd just gone and lived with fucking Dad. But at least I have Steve now, who's done more for me than you ever have!"
Mum turned pale. It was like her blood had ran cold, just listening to what I'd just said to her. She swallowed, hard, and a tear slid down her cheek. I could feel my heart thump against my chest. When did I become so cold? When did I become such a stone-cold bastard, speaking to my own mother like this? She had every right to be mad, at the end of the day... Because all she'd given me in her life was love, yet all I'd given her in my life was failure.
"Get out," Mum said coldly. "GET OUT!" She was screaming now. Mum had never spoken to me like this before... She'd never raised her voice at me like this... "Get the fuck out of my house, and don't even think about returning." Mum swallowed, her voice dropping to barely a whisper. "You're dead to me now."
I swallowed hard, but didn't dare to cry. My pride and my ego were too bruised to apologise, or to mend things with her. Deep down, I knew that there would be no coming back from this. That my mum would probably never forgive me for the harsh, bitter things that I said to her. I wished things didn't have to be like this... But from the start of when I'd joined the Mafia, I knew that things would eventually fall apart with Mum, because of the amount that I had to dedicate to learning the game. This was the life I'd chosen, and now I had to live it...
All that was on my mind was Thomas. Seeking the revenge that I'd been planning to... And I knew just the person who would help me to do it. The man who was the very reason my friendship with Thomas turned into a feud in the first place...
I turned on my foot and walked out of the house, slamming the door hard behind me.
