"Get your butt out of bed, you've been in there long enough, I swear to whoever is up there that people will start thinking you're in a coma. Don't even get me started about your smell. Mom and dad need you, uh what's that word people use when they need someone quickly and urgently...?" Max quickly questions what word he is trying to think of.
"Stat?" I reply with a hint of know it all, sarcastic sort of vibe, just to let him know who's really the boss here.
"STAT? Uhhhh yeah I think that's the word, okay still get out of bed, Courtney now."
Geez, sometimes I like him and sometimes I don't. He's just Max and sometimes that's a bit over the top. He comes up with the weirdest crap most of the time, for example, I eating cake, and he'll start exploding about how much cake I'm eating and what percentage of fat that i am going to get from eating one slice of cake...ITS OUTTA CONTROL!
As I walk downstairs, I see my parents there, at least 3 ft away. They look so disappointed but it doesn't seem like it is towards me, more towards each other, I wonder why Max seemed so himself and they don't. Only sometimes I hear my parents fight, more like every night but this morning i feel like it might be particularly not a good day and I can't, I just can't bear seeing them fight anymore. So if they start fighting again, I will be the one to come and make sure that they quit it or else, I will never be able to forgive them.
"Honey, come sit down, this is serious and whatever we say now, you need to understand its for the best, and we are just trying to do what's good for you and Max. Okay?" Calmly but sternly she warns me as if I am prone to blow up or turn this into a bigger deal then it already is.
"Yes yes I solemnly swear never to overreact and whatever shit is gonna happen." I sarcastically joke around, just trying to lighten up the mood around here.
"Listen, whatever jokes or sarcastic comments you want to add, save them. I am sick of needing to put up with your attitude, so please all I ask of you is to be appropriate and respectful." As Dad makes it very clear he is not happy.
OH MY GOD. This is serious. I am actually shaking, I am trembling in the idea of my parents splitting up, I know that's what they are say, I just don't want to hear it.
"Max and Courtney, we are getting a divorce." My parents say in-sync, as if they have rehearsed it.
I run or storm whatever you want to call it, I slam my door and call my best friend, "Dean, come to my house asap! I am, we are, all of us are, just come." I couldn't make up the words they were just too hard to repeat, especially over the phone, I don't know how I'll tell him or if I even can, I just know that he's the only person I trust and I can't not tell him.
This can qualify as the worst day ever, 'parents divorce' this is officially the worst 2 words anyone could possibly think or say!
GUYYYYSSS I HOPE YOU LIKED IT!! Excuse all of the grammar 😂😂😂 hope you enjoyed it and everything!
