I wake up next morning, to my alarm clock. ringing loudly in my ear. I dig my head deeper into my pillow grabbing the ends and putting it over my ears.I stump the alarm clock hard with the end of my palm, blocking out the sound.
my phone starts to vibrate under my pillow I pick it up, answering it.
"hello?"
" honey is that you?, "
" oh hey ma"
"Are you okay, how's school going?"
"oh its good."
"meet any new people?"
I sit down on the bed, visualising the people met since I came.
" I guess..." I answer unsurely
"hm, thats good, did you meet someone you like, like,"
I could feel her smiling through the phone. should I tell her about daniel, I mean we weren't a thing yet, and I wasn't expecting us to be, its just I think, I'm starting to like him. I had to tell her she was my mother, she was there for me, and I think telling her is the least I can do.
" yeah." my my voice weakening at the moment,
"oh, great, so tell me about him "
mysteriously I didnt know a single thing about daniel he, had dark deep secrets. secrets I was destined to find out about. My determination wasnt going to rest now.
"I dont really know much about him,"
I could hear her shoulders dropping rapidly.
" well I guess thats okay, you have the rest of you lives to get to know each other"
" mom, we just met."
"oh I know! so,how does he look like?"
" his got dark brown hair, almost black,
erm his got green eyes--"
"Green eyes" she interupts, maintaining the form of her voice ," liah whats his name?" she asks, her voice breaking lower.
" daniel"
silence.
"well thats nice" she says
her voice had mystically changed, into a deeper, more tired out tone. was she mad? didnt she like greened eyed boys.
" whats wrong?"
"nothing" she lied
" okay, when are you comming to pick me up?"
" is it the weekend already? :
" yes mom,"
" I'm sorry honey, I'm working this weekend, julie just had a baby and shes on maternity leave, and I'd promise I'd cover up for her.
I sulk, rolling my eyes. I take deep breath.my inner gum going dry.
"so I need to stay in school"
"I'm sorry...I'll send you money, maybe you can go out, have some fun.
"okay, bye"
I hang up mad.
weekend in school? no way, what am I gonna do for 48 hours in college., why did julie have to have her baby now, couldnt wait untill I finished college .My mom is the type of person who helps everyone out, and thats good, dont take me the wrong it it, but sometimes she still does it even if it's gonna affect her, she's still willing to go ahead with it. she should start considering, taking break for a while, maybe a holiday. The last time she took a holiday, was 1 year ago in september but only because I had sprained my ankle.
