----As I walk through the room filled with joy, laughter, smiles, and love, I see Mike who sits at the tip of the table quietly. I watch him as I sit down next to my mother, Lucy. "Hello everyone welcome. Thank you for coming out and joining us on this snowy Thanksgiving. I know most of you are far from home but after this Thanksgiving you might start thinking Oregon is better than anywhere else. So I would like to make a toast to the Gilmore family. Here's to the Gilmore family and our new tradition of Thanksgiving!!" My dad exclaimed acting like everything is perfect, but its not. I wonder what's up with Mike, he hasn't said a word to anyone since everyone got here.
----I sneak away from the dining table to go follow Mike. "Vanessa Rosemary Gilmore, where do you think you are going?" My dad yelled over the conversations, of course making me look like a dumbfuck. "Just to my room, dad," I snorted back. "Stop with the attitude, your 15, not 30. No need to be rude." "Richard, do you really think that Vanessa needs to be yelled at right now?" My mom butted in. "*sighs* Lucy, follow me." My dad sternly said. As they walked away mom got a worried look on here face. I walked around the dining room to go my "room", honestly to go hear what they are fucking talking about. " Lucille Rose Gilmore, what the hell were you thinking? You embarrassed me in front of my own family!" Dad scowled. "Richard she is my daughter too and I will have a say in her life! Now I don't care if you think I embarrassed you but, you better get used to it if you are going to treat Vanessa like that!!" My mom went full out on him, i never heard her talk to him like that. It was obvious how my dad felt, his eyes were bludging out and he face was a tomato! As I turn away I hear a hand going across my mother face. I turn back around to see my mother on the ground in tears, and of course dad standing above her. As he walks away i hear him say "Better clean up, pack up, and move out. I don't want to see a whore hanging around here." My heart broke for my mother, I ran up to her in tears knowing what's coming. "Mom?!?! Are you okay!?" I whisper as I slide down on my knees. "*crying voice* Honey! How long have you been there!?! Don't tell anyone including Mike!" She whispered with tears streaming down her face. I had so many questions. As I helped her up Mike walk in the living room. "Mother!? What happen?" Mike questioned. Mom gave me a look to tell me not to say anything but how could I not say anything he needs to know! "Dad bitch slapped her!" I whispered as another tear streams down my cheek. "What?!?! How!! Why!?! I'm going to kill him!!" Mike responded better than I thought, I thought he was going to say whatever and not even acknowledge us but I was completely wrong.
