It was the next morning i grabbed my dressing gown and put it on then went to the kitchen it was dead silent when i sat across form Johnny we had a silent conversation.
'what's wrong'
'i told Dad you know'
'oh what's wrong with mum'
'no idea' there was a slamming of plates as Mum gave Dad and Johnny jam on toast Dad ate but Johnny doesn't like jam and I'm allergic to strawberries.
"you've done us both jam?" Dad asked
"i wanna see what you can sort with ready meals we need something coming out of that kitchen A.S.A.P" Mum told Nancy as she put a plate of peanut butter on toast in front of me
"Like what?" Nancy asked.
"Linda" Dad called
"Dad its fine" Johnny interrupted
"i dunno lasagne's, curries, easy stuff but decent" Mum ignored him again
"the boy don't eat jam he never has in support of Mia" Dad stated ever since i couldn't eat strawberries he doesn't have them either what a nice twin.
"well it about time he started" Mum replied
"do you want me to do you some fresh with peanut butter" Nancy asked
"this ain't a B and B it toast and jam or nothing with the exception of Mia" Mum shouted Shirley left and Dad gave us a sign to go and we did but we stayed and listened. Mum was washing up.
"do you want me to finish doing that?" he asked but he was ignored
"look why don't you come and sit down there are some things we need to talk about" Dad said
"about time...i heard ya i heard everything and no i don't want to talk about it because i know my kids and he is not. he is not like that" Mum stormed out the kitchen and to her room closing the door. Dad turned to Johnny.
"just give her time" he mumbled. he went back into the kitchen i hugged Johnny to comfort him and he hugged back.
"come on let's get dressed" i went to my room and he went to his, i picked out red and blue ensemble for the day and i slipped it on before going to mums room and knocking on the door.
"Mum its Mia can i come in" she opened the door and let me inside.
"i was wondering if you could to that plait you did when i was younger...please." she sighed defeated obviously her anger was driven toward Johnny and Dad.
"sure sweetheart sit down" she grabbed my brush and did my hair.
"Mum i know your angry at Dad and Johnny but at least let them explain or just Dad it hard to here but. .." i trailed off
"i heard everything i needed to hear as well as the other thing Nancy said was true" i looked down.
"I'm not going there Mum cause its bigger than what she made out to be. I've done it twice and i seriously don't think i can manage a third." she stopped
"Sweetheart you know you can tell me anything."
"and what will happen then slamming of plates, silent treatment like your giving Johnny and Dad" i questioned
"no, look come on lets finish your hair" she continued on until she finished, Mum kissed my head
"there you go beautiful" i stood up.
"please Mum just have your fit of rage and be there for Johnny because he feels so wrong when its nothing to be ashamed of as soon as he realises we all support him the better." i left and went to my room doing my make up light. Nancy came in.
"I'm sorry for telling yesterday" she started i looked at her through the mirror and continued on.
"Mia"
"don't start Nancy. Literally just don't start you caused enough damage. there was reason me and Johnny kept secrets from Mum and Dad, We have gone to lengths to cover up and seem like a normal happy children when we are anything but. in the space of minutes you unravel it all so just get lost" i replied calmly, i finished my look with my glasses before leaving.
