"RYDER!!! All I ask is that you help out around here!!! Is that to much to ask?!?" the She-Devil asks in her own eerie tone.
"No Ma'am." I obediently answer. She rolls her eyes at my 'smart-*ss remark'.
"Correction Ryder I am your mother not your boss!!! I DESERVE TO BE ADDRESSED AS SUCH! Do I make myself clear?" She asks. It's the same speech everytime. And frankly I don't believe she's my mother I look nothing like my parents, my brothers on the other hand look and act like mini me's of my parents. Like Xander he's got a mop of messy black hair and vivid green eyes; he's tall and well built. Xander is most like my father. Where as Aiden has short spiked brown hair and brownish- green eyes; he's also tall but quite skinny. You can probably guess which parent he's most like... if you guessed my mother then yeah your right. God that makes me wish that my last year of high school would end sooner.
"RYDER! Are you even listening to me?" My mother yells in my face.
"Yes! Sorry I was just going over the list of chores in my head so I wouldn't forgot... Sorry mother." I say. Why does she do this to my I've never done anything I shouldn't! I mean for god sake I do all my chores, get good grades, and I even do my brothers' homework. What more does she want from me!!!
"Thank you that is all I ask. Now remember you have to pick up Xander from football practice. Oh and Aiden's snake from the vet. Okay? Thanks sweetie!" She says in a sickly sweet voice. Ugh when I hear it I just want to cut my ears off... okay... maybe that was a little to morbid..? Anyways you know what I mean it's like those fake cheerleaders that try to get you to do their homework. Yeah but anyone who knows that She-Devil knows how horrible it is just to be near her.
"Oh Mother dearest is there anyway I could get gas money?" I ask as nicely as possible.
"WHAT DO I LOOK LIKE AN ATM?!?!" She screeches. If only I had a great comeback.
"Well-" I start to say but she cuts me off.
"UGH HOW DARE YOU EVEN TRY THAT!!!" She shout. Okay anyone else confused? When did this turn against me!! "I can't wait for the day we get to ship you off your nothing but worthless and pathetic." she always tries to sound oh-so intimidating. I see my chance to get her clawed paws off me.
"But Mom what did I do?" I say loud enough to not make it obvious but just loud enough that my dad in the other room could hear me. The awful witch's face scrunches up in confusion.
"Nicola, babe, What's going on?" My dad asks cautionsly as he looks at my step-mom and I with her manicured claws digging into my shoulder.
"Oh Nothing sweetie!" Oh boy not this cr*p again. "I was asking Ryder if she needed gas money to go and pick up Xander." Then she turns to me and hands me a 20 dollar bill and mouths "Get Lost" I smile at my father turn on my heels and walk off rolling my eyes when I'm a safe distance from step-monster. I got into my car and drove off to Green Grove sports field.
