We arrived at the Oyster Hotel , about 20 minutes later. I getting nervous as hell ,as I know I have to tell my mum the truth.
"Hunny are you going to help me with these bags or are you gonna day dream?" My mum says laughing. I hurry over and take the luggage from her. We walk into the reception and my gosh this place is beautiful. Well I Guess with the price that I had to pay , with the help of big bro and sis of course ,it should be worth it.
We greeted by a lady at recetion. "Good evening ladies how can I help you?" She smiles at us. "Um. I made a reservation under Arianna Mitchell" I say nervously. Gosh why am I nervous ... I haven't done anything wrong..... yet.
She looks at me and smiles "Hold on a sec..... Arianna...... Mitchell. Yes we have your reservation. How would you being paying?." mmm let me see I would have to work a year of my life to pay for a 2 night stay here , which I dont think will be all that fun , after I tell my mum my news.
"I'll be paying with my card." I dig in my crossbody bag and take out my wallet and hand over my SAVINGS bank card!!! its awsome having older sibilings!!
"Thank you for choosing the Oyster Hotel. I hope your stay here is pleasant . Please if you ladies need anything let us know. And Here are your key cards." She smiles and hands them over to me.
"Thank you." I smile back. I hope she can help me when I break the news to my mum!!!
"Ladies, Phill will take you to your room and he will take your luggage. Have a good evening." I give her a small wave and we follow Phill to the room. The art work in this Hotel is amazing I don't know much about art or paintings but it looks pretty expensive.
"Here we are, room 55" Phill says politely.
He nods at us and walks away. We walk inside the room and gosh its beautiful with blue and pink pale pastel colours on the walls. A big white couch near the balcony. Our room has an ocean view which is priceless...
Being in a 5 star hotel is great. But being in a 5 star Hotel and having to tell your mother some serious news.... not so great!!!
My mum and I unpack our things freshen up and decide we should head to the Ocean Terrece to eat something. I'm starved but that feeling soon disappears when I realise the time to tell my mum the news gets closer.
The resturant is still busy being the start of the Easter break there are alot of holiday makers here. I feel comfortable as we don't look odd walking in so late.
The atmosphere here is great there is alot of young people here, and people are enjoying themselves which is good right!!.
We are taken to a table by our waiter he leads us to a cosy table near the pool and balcony. As we walk I sense people are staring at me.. I know am soo good looking! .. not... I feel akward and sit down as soon as I can.
"Good evening ladies , my is Paul I'll be serving you tonight. Is there anything you would like to drink?." He hands us the wine menu.
Drinks yes.... well first something to celebrate my grad... then something to numb myself so I can tell my mum the news .. then something to deal with my mothers shock.... and something to help me deal with the screaming im going to hear.
"I'll have a....." I cut my mother off a order a bottle of Red wine. shit what did I just do??? I dont even drink wine!!

"Thank you ladies." And with that the waiter walked away. He came back 10 minutes later with our drinks. He took our order and went off again.
By now my mum and I were abit tipsy. The plan was to get her tipsy before me, but I guess I was more. Our food had come and I was starved I told my self I'll eat half of my food then tell her. That time came even faster.
I guess its now or never.....
1 2 3 I counted in my head.
"Hey ma... I have something I need to tell you."
"Yes hunny?what is it?." Now she looks confussed, as she puts down her cutlery.
here we go...
"I found a job...". Before I could complete my sentence she cut me off with her screaming." Oh hunny thats great , so where is this school? and when do you start?".
"I leave next week" . Shit im scared now and I think people are gonna start looking about now.
"What do you mean you leave next week? where exactally are you going?" Her face has now droped and turned pale.
"I got a job as an aupair , I leave for New York next week. The contract is for 2 years. And I'm going to teach a 3 year old boy." I said that as fast as I could, thinking that I was going to get interrupted by my mother. I need more wine... Waiter !!
"WHAT!!!! NEW YORK!!?." I was right everyone in the resturant was looking at us now.
" Yes mum" I sigh....
"So you planned this whole thing??? booked a fancy hotel , which you can't afford try and get me drunk so it will be easier for you to break your secret to me huh?? Is this how I raised you Arianna to lie and keep secrets from me???." She yells at me waving her hands.
I wish I was a fish in that ocean right now.
I feel everyone is watching us and I wont dare to look at them. How embarrassing is this????
"I was scared mum im sorry!!" I tell her but she doesn't look at me.
"Sorry?? you sorry you already planned everything and now you sorry?" She forces out a laugh as tears fill her eyes.
I decide to keep quite now... Not knowing what to say next ,my mum says something that shocks me...
"Look Ari you still young, you 22, you never worked a day in your life. You can't cook or clean up after your self , how are you going to teach a 3 year old?!! You clumsy , you burp in public and not forgetting you day dream all the time. You can't take responsibility for yourself ,I doubt it you can be responsible for a boy. This is the reason why pets never lasted with you!!." She says angerily.
Wow... never expected that from my mum... never.. Im speechless . I always have a smart mouth , but right now I can't think of anything.
"Listen Ari if you wanted a job working with 3 year olds you should of told me. I can give you one at my school there's no reason for you to go half way around the word to work."
"I know but I thought you always wanted me to go out there and explore the "world" , make new friends, im doing that now!!." This is not convincing her.She stares at my blankly. What do I do?.
"I made up my mind and im going. I'm happy with my decision. The main reason I'm leaving is to experience something new. Atleast you can do is support me" I look at her with tears filled in my eyes. I forcefully push my chair back so that it scrapes the tiles, causing everyones attention to focus on us. I stand up slowly and look at my mother.
"Oh and mother im 23 this year." With that I grab my phone , key card and run down the stairs onto the pier.
