"I'm sorry, Maureen." My mom said and my face pales, i try to contain myself and calm myself about the situation. I feel like i can't do it, but i can, and i have to.
"We'd have to transfer you to another school. Telfer HighSchool is the best option." She smiles sadly and i look at her with a sad and dissapointed expression.
I thought immediately of all the negative things that might happen to me, as soon as i transfer school, but i quickly changed it to positive ones.
A painful and awkward moment passed before i finally broke it.
I stood up from the chair, and smiled forcedly before mumbling an okay.
Her face looks priceless. Almost its like i told her that i made out with a guy in front of dad.
Kids, don't do that.
She realized that i noticed her expression and she quickly composed herself. It almost made me laugh, but now is not the time.
"I'm..i'm so happy that you agreed. It's for the best honey." She hugged me and pats my back. "You're strong, i know that. You can do this." She said, her hands smoothly going up and down at my back.
I hope she's right. I hope that i am strong enough.
"You are Maureen." My mom assured as she breaks the hug to look at me sternly. She gives me a forced smile.
Oh.
"Yeah. Yipee." I faked a happy expression and she giggles. I love making her laugh.
"That's my daughter." She chuckled, before coughing, really badly.
I rush to the kitchen to give her a glass of water, and i rushed back to the living room hurriedly where my mom was in the sofa. Still coughing.
She accepts the glass of water from my hands and she drinks from it leaving the glass half empty. Once she's finished she placed the glass at the small table that was at front of her and faces me.
"Honey, why don't you....Go out -and shop- clothes, maybe with.. ella or a friend. It's the best i can do." She stated between coughs and i was very hesitant of leaving her here alone, but i knew she wasn't going to let me stay.
I look at her and nodded with a tight smile. "Okay."
"don't forget to take some pills, your flu is getting worse.." i said and she nodded, before shoo-ing me to go to the mall with ella.
