Kat Dahlia - "Lion"

MARILYN

It was 7:10 and I was just putting some finishing touches on myself, I had dinner at my mother's house in 20 minutes and to say the least, I wasn't prepared whatsoever. I left my home and hopped in my car.

She invited me to this dinner earlier this week, of course, my reaction at first was "Fuck no and fuck off" but then I thought about it, I haven't seen my stepbrother or Stepdad in a long time, I would like to see the looks on their faces when I show up. Lately, this is how I feel, I have nothing better to do than be petty. Maybe in the back of my mind I'm hoping for closure, Maria did some serious damage to me when I was younger, if I can, I want to be able to forgive her and close this chapter of my life for good, move on past my mommy issues and be better.

Driving down the oh-so-familiar street I hated, I let out a sigh, so many memories, not sure whether that's a good thing or not. As I pulled up in front of my mother's house I recognized her 2001 Audi in the parking lot next to an unfamiliar Honda that had a Harvard sticker on the back of it. I rolled my eyes and pulled in behind the Audi. Looking in the mirror one last time before getting out I made sure everything was good with my face.

I rang the doorbell a few times obnoxiously and almost right away my stepfather answered the door, he was wearing a very expensive suit, he didn't look nearly as nice as my dad when he's in his suit though, Maria really did downgrade. I held back the urge to roll my eyes until they got fucking stuck.

"Marilyn's here," he yelled, at this, I actually rolled my eyes, he just walked to the kitchen and I followed behind.

"Marilyn!" My mother exclaimed almost too excited, she pulled me into an awkward hug, I patted her back a few times and smiled falsely. "I can't believe you're here, we were just about to start without you," she pulled me towards the dining room where I saw my stepdad, his son, what looked to be his girlfriend, and another woman who I didn't recognize.

"Marilyn this is Sarah, Christopher's girlfriend. And that's Samson, Sarah's sister" I nodded, they stood up and shook my hand.

"So Marilyn how are you and that rapper doing!" Christian questioned, "Tommy gun?" he was fucking with me, but i was ready,

"His name is Colson, and we're doing fine," I could see my mom out the corner of my eyes holding back a chuckle, she really was evil. "You know what? actually why downplay it, We're doing great, we actually just got married last month" I half lied, sure we're married just not with my consent, I just really want to shut them up. Taking a bite of my pasta I heard my stepfather choke and saw my mother's eyes widen,

"You okay Christian?" I asked smirking, he looked up and glared before he began coughing,

"Congrats," Samson spoke "Maria said he was a rapper? Colson couldn't be his rap name, could it? What's he called?" She asked my mom still in shock

"Machine Gun Kelly" I spoke continuing,

"Wait you're Mary Jane? Like as in like the album "My Garden" Mary Jane, Cleveland's own?" I nodded, "oh, it all makes so much sense, I knew you looked familiar, you look different with your hair up" she laughed,

"Yeah, I get that sometimes,"

"This is crazy, I listen to like all of your music, when I saw you and Mgk get married, I was like 'damn that's a badass couple' I had no idea you were related to Chris, you're so much cooler than him " I chuckled and thanked her before eating more of my pasta,
