"Oii likkle girl come dung the stairs the dinner ready." Not bothering to respond, i got out of bed and went into the bathroom.
Today was just like every other Sunday. Mommy would cook dinner and invite my three siblings, Shanaya, Dominic and Akeem. Daddy is gonna be here too. He hasn't been home much due to his mechanic shop and car parts company. He's been busy and i miss him.
Sighing, i flushed the toilet and wash my hands glancing in the mirror for a little bit before quickly looking away.
When i woke up this morning to do my face routine, i saw that the left side of my face was bruised and slightly swollen. After seeing that i cried myself back to sleep and stayed in my room for the whole day.
I could feel myself slipping back into depression and the voices in my head grew louder. I couldn't even look at myself. I wanted to relapse so bad, but then i remember all the hard work i put in to get rid of the scars.
Going into my drawer i changed into some grey sweatpants and a crop top. I've been in my pjs all day.
Grabbing a mask and putting it on to hide my face, i unplugged my phone from the charger and headed downstairs where i saw everybody sitting at the table.
"Goodnight" i said to everyone before taking a seat beside Dominic.
"Goodnight" they responded in unison except mommy.
Oh.....
"Weh di mask fah?" Shanaya asks and i shift in my chair.
"Mi nuh feel suh good so me have it on fi prevent uno from sick to" i lied and she nodded.
"A grace time now, bow uno head" mommy said aggressively cutting her eyes at me.
Mi just lose mi appetite now.....
Everyone bowed their heads as she prayed
"most honorable and righteous father, we gather around this table today to give you thanks, for the blessings you have bestowed upon us and all the wonderful things you have done. we thank you for guidance and protection from evil and inequity. Lord as we all sit around this table getting ready to have dinner, i ask that you bless our food in Jesus name we pray amen."
"Amen"
Looking down at my plate, i felt my stomach turn and i sighed.
Not this again.....
She cooked curry goat with rice and peas, vegetable and plantain. If it was anyway other day i would have been feasting but right now I'm just not in the mood to eat my appetite is gone and i sighed knowing that i probably wont eat at all for a few days or even a week.
