It was three in the afternoon on a Saturday and the weather outside is warm like always since well it is California. I was leaning against the kitchen counter eating cereal while scrolling on my phone until he walked in.
"It is finally great to see you out of your room then being inside all day." Francis said while opening the fridge to see if there was any food there.
"I wasn't even there all day but okay." I said deeply with the cold tone in my voice.
Francis is my stepfather which I wished he wasn't but ever since my mom married him, I hated his guts for no reason at all.
All I wanted was my parents to be back together but sadly that will never happen.
He was standing there front of me and was wearing his police uniform so that expected me to think that he was going to work today even though I shouldn't really care what he does at all.
"Sammy, do you have any plans today?" He asked while making himself a cup of coffee.
"Yeah, I am about to go to my friend's house why?" I questioned.
"Nothing I was just wanted to make sure that's all."
I rolled my eyes at my stepfather and then grabbed my phone to look at the message that my friend texted me.
"I got to go Francis and tell my mom I will be back before dinner time." I spoke.
"Okay and stay out of trouble."
"Yeah, like I would do that." I stated while rolling my eyes at him again.
Please am I type of person to do something bad? No, I am not and besides my parents raised me to be better than that...
I walked to the kitchen sink and washed my plate then the spoon as well before going upstairs to my room to change.

"Everyday it just like I can't find a way to ignore him because he is just always there." I said.
"Well he does live with you." Clarence says.
I rolled my eyes at my friend and then took a bite of my hamburger.
"I am tired of seeing his face and I know I need to stop talking about it since he will be here forever unless-"
"Hold on don't tell me you are going to try to make them divorce and I have been to your house many times knowing they look happy together." He said.
"I am not trying to make them get divorce because right now I just want him out of my fucking life."
"And how are you going to make that happen?"
"I will just wait until it happens."
"Okay and I hope it backfires on you."
"What if doesn't though?" I asked knowing what the answer would be.
"There is a lot of reasons why Sammy."

7:39pm
As I opened the front door, I could hear the tv playing in the living room and somehow just rolled my eyes.
There are people in the world that I hate but the two people I hate the most are Francis and the child is somehow a product of him and you know the
rest anyway.
"Hey Nathan what are you doing?" I asked.
The kid with light red hair turned his attention away from the tv and looked at me.
"You know what I am doing Sammy." Nathan said.
I rolled my eyes at my brother and looked at the little girl who is literally watching SpongeBob right now.
Honestly the more I see her face, the more I see Francis even though she look like him and my mom.
"Is mom home?" I questioned.
"No she is coming home in a hour." He said.
"Okay and tell that kid to go to bed."
"Bro can you just say Michelle's name because it is not that hard and besides it is little bit too early for her to go to bed."
"Nathan you know what I don't really care anymore." I said before going to the kitchen to grab something to eat for dinner.
Sometimes I wish there was world that mom didn't meet Francis and my parents were still together but hey that shit is not going to happen.
