Coming home was one of the best feelings after having a long day. To deal with other people's bullshit was annoying. I mean, I guess that's what high school is all about right?

I walked in the house only to find it empty. I mean I know I'm the only child, but my mother is usually in the living room watching one of her shows. I walk to the hallway and go to her room just to find her asleep.

I then go to my room and start doing my homework, until I got a text from my best friend Bailey.

Bailey: Hey gurl!!!

Me: Heyyyyy

Bailey:Hey can you come over I am having a party and we gonna get wasted🤪

Bailey and I have been bestfriends for 4 years ever since the beginning of 8th grade. She's the more loose and goofy one, while I'm the cautious and semi funny one. Yea sad I know.

Me: Sorry but I can't I got exams tomorrow and don't you?

Bailey: I mean yeah but I wanna party first, can you please come?

Me: Sorry I cant gotta do work and you know its Brandon's birthday tomorrow.

Bailey: Oh yeah you better get on him and lose it tonight.

Me: Ma'am the only thing I will be loosing tonight is my keys, because yk I'm a dumb bitch

Bailey: lol no your not. Your a smart dumb bitch. 💀

Me: literally makes no sense, but I gtg Brandon should call in a few.☺️

Bailey: And you say your not gonna loose anything 🙄😏

Me: Ma'am I said I'd loose my keys😭

Bailey: yea okay.. but be safe love 💕

Brandon is my boyfriend and we have been dating for about 7 months.
Brandon is also my longest relationship. We pretty much have a future together or at least in my mind we do.

I continue to finish my homework and getting ready to study for my exam the next day. Trying to finish my work, I feel as if somebody is watching me. I immediately get paranoid and have no balls to turn around. Me being the dumb ass I am I yelled out.

"WHOSE THERE?!!"

An sweet, very tired and familiar voice answers.

My mother chuckling "You know if you were in a real situation where somebody was intruding, you would be dead?" She laughed at me. I turned around with a face of relief and laughed with her.

"Yea ALL the robbers will love my ass when I move" I said laughing.

"Hey!" My mother said "Just because I look old does not mean that I'm too old to pop your mouth" she said with a serious face. I was a bit scared but then got distracted.

I looked at my mother examining her face, she looked very tired, having bags under her eyes, and dark circles.

"Mom? Are you okay? You look very tired, shouldn't you go rest?"

My mother avoiding my question, instead says "Well I'll be in the kitchen, making dinner if you need me
you know where I am" she said quickly walking away.

"Okay" I say quietly because she had already left.

I was continuing my study's until my phone rang once again, but this time it was Brandon.

"Hello" I ask with a smile on my face.

"Hey babe its me Brandon" He says in his usual sexy voice. Hey! Don't call me weird for saying that.

"Yeah I know" I say while rolling me eyes knowing he can't see me while laughing.

"Well anyways, can I come get you and we go somewhere?" Brandon asked.

"Mmm, yeah come get me around 7:30." I say eagerly. He hangs up the phone and I quickly get dressed and put on a little make-up.

I go down stairs and I see my mother fixing soup and she's sitting at the dinning table with her hand on her head not even touching her food. She looked stressed, so I attempt to sneak up on her and timidly tapped her on her shoulder, she jumped a little, and then gave a smiled.

"Yes love?" She said with a tired smile and voice.

"Hey, can I go out with Brandon?" I asked.

"Don't you have an exam tomorrow?" She said looking very confused.

"I do but I just want to hang out with him before his birthday" Cause I know I'm going to be tired after the exam's.

"Ok but be back in time so you're able to get some sleep. You know I have to work tonight and won't be back till morning so I can't wake you up." She said with a serious tone.

"Why do you always work so late? I swear if I could give your boss a piece of my mind-" I was cut off by her voice.

"Listen. My boss pays me money so we can live in this house. Understood? So if that means that I have to work 3rd shift in order for us to have a roof over our house, best believe I will" she said now standing up and staring right into my eyes.

You know that face expression when you are complaining about something and not realizing that what you're complaining about is what's benefiting you until your told by somebody else?

Yea that was my face expression. My mother walked out the dinning room heading back to her room while telling me to be safe while I'm out.

I heard Brandon's car horn outside. I grabbed my keys, turned off the lights, and headed out the house while locking the doors.
