I awoke with a headache, and somehow I wished I could fall back into my bed, shut my eyes and sleep. You know the kind of reality checks that are so uncalled for??, yes, this was one.
With so much reluctance, I recalled clearly the events that unfolded the previous day, I wasn't brought up rude, technically I did the growing up with no help, but it was never in my gene to be rude on purpose and especially to my mother, dahm it!.... I loved her with everything in me and around me...
Yes, I know sometimes I narrate this with some impression of hate and anger, but she brought me to this world, I loved the woman she was, all I did was yearn for more, I crossed the line yesterday and I really wanted to make amends, well, it's difficult to think of a choice of burnt offering with the kind of personality my parents put up...
Maybe I should prepare her breakfast in bed?...No, massage her feet's maybe, those heels could kill you know, and I just recalled, she visited the spa more than she visited my room and that was some annoying fact cause......*really, focus Andy, you are getting pissed again, focus, you wanna say sorry and sorry you shall say*
I saw myself pacing round my room like my daughter was in labor, it was difficult thinking of the best way to show love to a woman that barely gave you one except by not flushing you down the wash room when she heard the doctor say "oh well, you have a baby coming".
Painful enough, I realized saying sorry when hurt was all new to me and I was blank on how to go about it, well, maybe I'll just walk into her room, get on one kneel and do the needful, now I need a start up line...
No kidding, this was funny in some way, having rehearsals on what to say was enough to make anyone nod his head in disapproval and shove some pity sigh at me, but I just didn't wanna stutter when speaking
At that point, my door made a sound and a head peeped in..
" is this a good time or should I just say something sarcastic "
Finn said obviously trying to make light of my dilemma, he walked in and closed the door behind him, leaned on the wall, arms crossed and staring at me sternly while all I did was bit my nails and sit on my bed...
"I know bro, I over did myself, I crossed the line, I was pushed, no excuses but it's true and you know it, so scold me lightly here, don't just tell me what I already know, please...."
Finn only smiled and moved to sit beside me...
"All words guilty as charged, but I'm not here to scold you yet, don't smile cause I will, I'm just here to ensure you don't overdo yourself and act weird, I got ya sis, you ain't this crazy so you must be pretty hurt to act as such, but you owe mum some deep and serious apology, if there's one thing she did well, was letting you leave without a slap" he reprimanded lightly
I smiled "I know that part, for some reason, I was expecting one right in the middle of my unprepared tantrum, with so much relieve, I passed on that, Finn I feel cheated and horrible, can you walk with me to her room, I need to get this out of my system"
"Hahahahahah, me ke????, sis you know I never said a word through out your speech yesterday, you are so going alone"
"So much for having my back always" I retorted
"Lol, I'm only kidding, you know I will, so let's move now cause I have a feeling that your drama wasn't enough to keep them in this house all through today, so let's move" Finn said shoving me lightly towards the door
"Chill bro, wadup you, I don't even know what to say" I halted
"You think??... Oh trust me, you do know what to say, I've noticed it comes upon you like lightening, move jhor" he said laughing
