Broken Ashes: Sibs reborn

7

I stared at the bitch, my so-called mother who gave birth to me as she sat across from me, drinking her tea calmly like some prissy-ass upper class woman, which she is anything but. This ass hat of a woman was testing my patience as she continued to take her time, it was grating on my nerves really, my fingers tapped impatiently until she finally set the cup down.

"So what is it this time, hmm? There's no reason that a bitch like you would be here unless you have something to gain, Lacy? So, what is it?" I forced out evenly as she frowned and crossed her arms, glaring into my eyes.

"I set you up on a date with a nice rich man since you clearly couldn't even do it yourself." Wow! This woman got the balls to say something like that, she even scoffs while eyeing my cheap apartment. What a nice mother, note to sarcasm. My eye twitches in annoyance as I grit my teeth, trying hard to suppress my urge to bite off a chunk of her flesh.

"Woman, you clearly have a few screws loose. You have no right to judge me or order me around after the shit you've done! So fucking can it and leave." I said with a bit of killing intent, but the ass hat of a woman was oblivious to it.

"Oh please. That happened so long ago, so get over it girl! You're a grown woman, something trivial like that shouldn't matter anymore." She said while flipping her hair sassily. It was at that moment, a small flicker of a young boy appeared beside her, he smiled at me sadly. My eyes widened in shock before his image flickered away when my mother snapped her fingers in front of my face.

"Woman, get your nasty germ ridden hand out of my face before I chop it off. Also, I'm neither a slave nor am I a puppet that you can step on and order around as you please." I said icily as I smacked her hand away in disgust, causing her to yelp in pain as she pulled her hand away.

"You will do as I say. Next week at 3:00 pm, be there girl." After saying that, the bitch got up with a huff, before leaving through my front door, only to stop for a moment and turn towards me. "Your baby brother is gone, G O N E, so be an adult and move on, Ashley."

It was here when I suddenly felt my head throbbing as the ass hat closed the door behind her. A memory, a memory of my baby brother's voice... It echoed in my head as flashes of his goofy expressions kept appearing in my mind. The pain was sharp, it made me grit my teeth as I held my head. The image of the little boy soon shifted into that of a skeleton with ivory eyelights and a big bright smile alongside an older skeleton man with ocean green eyelights and a patient but loving smile.

I was gasping at this point as tears rolled down my face. Memories of a time forgotten kept rushing into my mind about the two people that I care about the most.

-With every new memory, a crack appears on her skin and her reality shifts a bit-

"That's it, remember them. Remember your Love." ??? whispered as her purple lipstick covered lips spread across her face in a gentle smile as her blue eyes shined beautifully against the blue orb in the vast darkness.
