"What are you gonna tell mom?" Chantel giggled sleepily while managing to cross her free leg underneath her other, causing her to tap the gas pedal a little more than she should've.
I flew back in the passenger seat and gave her a dirty look. "I really need to get a car for my own safety" i huffed, taking a bite out of my sour gummy worm. I shrugged my shoulders and looked back at the road. "Nothing, im legal now"
She popped her eyebrows at me and took a sip of her water. " yeah but you're still your mommies little baby" she joked.
I huffed and took a sip of my Gatorade before saying, "only because Aj is the fuck up and catalina is 12" Aj is my jackass brother, two years younger than me but acts like a complete child. While Catalina on the other hand is my annoying little sister but we can actually stand each other. Funny thing about Aj and Catalina is they act each others age. Sad right?
She pulled into my empty drive way and put her car in park. "Yeah, i guess you have a point" she giggled. " okay get out im gonna be late for work" she shot me a soft smile and leaned over the center counsel to kiss my cheek. "Love you"
I kissed her cheek quickly and nudged my door open with my elbow. "Love you" i said as i stood up to my feet. I stood in the same spot and watched her pull out of my driveway, honestly just scared to walk in the house. An Empty driveway this early in the morning means my mom knows i didn't come home last night and she's trying to trick me into thinking she took an early shift.
Chantel was right, i am my moms little baby, well in her eyes at least. My mom and dad got divorced a few years after Catalina was born because my dad was secretly banging one of his co-workers i guess. So me being the first born and all i kind of took his role in my household, like i help out with bills, make sure everyone did their chores, cook, clean, etc. you get the idea.
And well because of this, my mother treats me a little differently, i guess i could say. She's definitely harder on me when it comes to school and making life choices because between me and my brother im clearly the one with the potential to be something in life.
Once Chantel disappeared in the early morning traffic i threw my head back and looked up to the sky praying to anything up there that i wont have to hear this woman's mouth today. I took a deep breath and started to make my way to the front door at a comfortable pace.
Surprisingly she wasn't downstairs waiting upon my arrival so i tip toed to the door that's attached to the garage and peaked my head through to see if her car was there but nope, just my dads red 2009 Camero that he has yet to pick up.
"She's not here don't worry" Aj huffed as he walked downstairs half naked, itching his stomach. "Where were you last night?"
I rolled my eyes and bumped his shoulder as i made my way to the staircase. "None of your business"
"She left a note for you" he giggled. "Its in the kitchen"
I furrowed my brows and walked in the kitchen, looking around for this note Aj speaks of. I noticed something hanging on the side of the fridge so i yanked it off and grabbed the orange juice while i was right there. I threw the piece of paper on the counter and grabbed a glass before un tightening the cap and pouring half a glass.
Dear y/n,
Since you leave when you want and come home when you want without asking or even letting me know, i want the house spotless before i get home!!! And i already know your schedule for the week so i don't want to hear you say you have work.Ps. Do a load of my laundry for me please! Running out of work clothes!
Love, mom
