I was walking home from the grocery store when I heard a loud noise. It was gun shots, which we hear a lot in this neighborhood, but I still ran. Once I got home my mom was laying on the couch, half drunk.
,, Uhm mom I got the food. " I say. ,, Whatever, just put it on the counter" my mom says. While I was placing it down my dad walks out of the room in a suit. ,, you ready Melissa? " he asks my mom. ,, hm? Oh yeah I'm ready." my mom say excitedly.
,, wait, where are you going? It's 10pm on a Tuesday! " I look at them in a confused way. ,, oh shut it brat! We are going to the bar, you have to stay with your brother!" oh right my 10 year old brother! I completely forgot that he's home. ,, ur still bringing him to school tomorrow right? " I ask concerned
,, Mhm yeah whatever.!" she says while closing the front door. She won't bring him to school, and I'll have to. She does this once a month, where she goes to the bar with dad and gets so drunk she forgets she even has kids.
I walked to my room and closed the door, I grabbed a colorful journal and sat on my bed. I always right my emotions down instead of talking about them.
Mike my brother softly knocks on my door. ,, yn? Can I come in? I can't sleep. " he asks. ,, yeah sure come in!" he opens the door and walks in cautiously before closing the door behind him.
,, you ok? You seem off, your tired aren't you? " I say calmly. ,, no.. Well yes.. I'm just sad. Your going to have to bring me to school tomorrow again." he says in a soft tone, almost like he feels bad. ,, yeah.. But that's ok. As long as your getting to school I'm fine. Hey do you want to sleep in my room tonight? "
He nodes before laying down next to me. I turn off the light, laying down too. ,, goodnight Mike." I say while smiling at him. ,, night.. " he says before dosing off.
