The worker // FREENBECKY

FREEN POV

"I told you to shut the fuck up Riley is asleep" I whisper to Irin who is currently smashing the house down, she's broken the lamp , the vase and anything she can practically find.

"LET RILEY HEAR ME , RILEY , GUESS WHAT? YOUR MOM FREEN IS A CHEATER" she shouts out loud. 

I ball my fists and run my hands through my hair as I pull through the roots.

The reason why we argue is over anything. I love Irin but she does not fucking trust me.

There's this girl at work , who has a crush on me , she gets me lunch, I have never done anything for her to like me  but she does and Irin is aware of it since earn has messaged my phone telling me she 'loves me and looks forward to seeing me every morning'.

From there Irin turned into a completely psycho.

I hate that we argue in front of Riley , I always tell her to talk to me when Riley is at school, but she doesn't want to listen to me , she's literally finding any excuse to call me out.

Irin's alcohol problem just started getting worse after she found out earn like me , it  wasn't this bad before.

She would drink , she would come home drunk , would shout at Riley , force her to sleep early , sometimes she forgets to pick Riley up from school.

I try my best to protect Riley but sometimes it isn't enough.

I sleep downstairs on the couch , then my alarm goes off , I run upstairs and wake Riley up .

"Good morning princess" I sit on her bed, she stretches and I carry her as she giggles.

"Muuuuuuummy I'm sleepy" she complains

"I know princess , but you have to go school , didn't you say you want to be a teacher?" I ask her 

Riley loves her school teachers, she wants to become a teacher now.

"Yes I do but I'm sleepy mummy" she rubs her eye as I place her inside the bath 

"You can't be a teacher if you can't teach anything, you need to learn and my daughter is genius isn't she? I wink and she nods

"I am a genius" she nods her head and I help her bath, she's only 8 years old.

Once she's ready for school, I brush her hair and then walk downstairs to Irin who looks sleepy.

I walk to her and peck her lips.

"Morning babe" I say to her 

"Morning" she smiles and kisses Riley's head

Riley sits down as she eats the cereal Irin prepared for her.

When Irin is in a good mood she is in a good mood.

We always forget our arguments the next morning, i understand she's drunk most times.

"Mum I wanted pancakes" Riley complains to Irin, she's asked for pancakes all week, I help get Riley ready it's the least Irin could do.

"You can't get everything in life Riley" Irin rolls her eyes and sips her tea, there's the fucking attitude again.

"But I thought you said you were going to make it this week, it's Friday today mum" Riley innocently whines as she plays with her cereal.

I sigh as I rub Riley's hand

"Don't worry Riley I'll make you pancakes tomorrow , it's Saturday, as soon as your awake you'll be getting pancakes" I smile at her and Irin sighs

"There you are, fucking spoiling her again? people don't have shit like this , she should be fucking grateful , your acting like the good parent so she can hate me aren't you" Irin  growls as she slams her fist on the table , I run my hands through my hair, I'm fucking exhausted.

I can see Riley startled , she looks terrified of her own mother.

"Riley go and get your school bag" I say to her so she doesn't have to see this 

she runs up.

"I am not acting like the good parent Irin, I jut wouldn't promise her something and then not fucking do it, stop acting like this in front of her" I sigh as I witness Riley come downstairs slowly, a bit scared , she probably saw me and Irin speaking now.

"Okay you ready princess, let's go" I smile as I take Riley's hand, even if it's a fake smile and riley knows it, I hate that she has to see this shit.
